This seems to be turning into an LSU/Kim thread,

No, no it’s not. What is this obsession with LSU? Take it to the General board. Stay on topic

TT followed by Vandy have the most acreage. They should enjoy it while it lasts….

TT has more territory than the other 3 combined.

TT is most likely going to be eliminated today at West Virginia. The Lady Raiders SoS is actually worse than LSU's 79 to 37 and according to Massey, he has WV with a 83% chance of winning.

You were saying? TT now has road wins against Baylor and West Virginia, they might actually be legit and totally in the hunt for the Big 12 title.

Hmmm. What does the Boneyard think? Let me take a guess.

The Boneyard doesn't think; the Boneyard reacts instinctively and quickly.

Continuing the 16-game winning streak through the 56 win at the NC game, and beyond. No thinking necessary.... See Sarah and KK on steals today.

Go Huskies!!!

So Texas Tech now owns everything west of the Mississippi… 😉
 
Now there's three, who's next to go down?

As a thought experiment, if Vanderbilt ran the table in the SEC, would they be the overall #1 even ahead of Connecticut? Where would
Texas Tech be ranked/seeded if they ran the table in the Big 12?
 
There were so many games yesterday, and obviously LSU beating Texas gets a lot of the attention, but check out Vanderbilt. They took on a decent Texas A & M team, expected to win but by eight or so points. Instead, they won by 40. That is, by far the biggest margin of loss by TAMU, Far surpassing the 22 point win by Oklahoma.
 
Shea is doing a fabulous job, but they have an incredibly steep hill ahead of them. I doubt that anyone has a tougher remaining schedule.

Thus far their signature win is at home against LSU, their only win against a top 25 team.

Coming up - home games against

#9 Michigan
#5 Oklahoma
#2 Texas
#6 Kentucky

Away games against -

#3 South Carolina
#18 Ole Miss
#6 Kentucky
#20 Tennessee

If they can get to the end of the regular season with only 2 or 3 losses, that would be an amazing season.

There must be a way to measure this. According to Massey their SOS is currently 50 and will end the season at 15, which implies a tough remaining schedule but I don't see an obvious way to calculate the strength of schedule of the remaining schedule.

Massey has expected remaining losses at 6.34 which is the most among any of the top 20 teams. You have to get down to Alabama to find the team with more expected losses, and and that's more due to being a weaker team than a stronger schedule.

Wow what a killer schedule! Wish we were playing those teams.

If my memory is correct, Villanova was the team that broke UConn's undefeated season and last long winning streak........let's not let that happen this Thursday......

Good memory.
February 9, 2022
Lior Garzon scored 19 points and Maddie Siegrist added 17 to lead Villanova to a 72-69 win over No. 8 UConn, ending the Huskies' 169-game conference winning streak.

UConn last lost a conference game back in the old Big East Conference in 2013.

Kudos to Shea and Vandy for their season so far. Now for the but: schedule ahead too tough and teams will scheme to shutdown Blakes. TT still an unknown and likewise still has a difficult path ahead. UConn will go undefeated, handily beating ND and TN, so this thought experiment is moot.
 
Once it gets down to two schools, UConn and the other school, UConn should have the Top half of the US, including Alaska and the other school should have the bottom half of the US, including Hawaii.

IF they ran the table in the SEC, then I would say yes they would deserve the #1 overall team in the NCAA Tournament. Texas Tech would most likely be ranked #3 overall behind UConn at #2
