10 losses would even be too much, because the SEC wins dont matter as much beat some better teams and you have room for more error the only good thing about arkansas is they dont lose to crappy teams......yet No, 10 or 11 losses and we're in...and as a decent seed too...Last year, Bama went 21-11 (9-7 in the SEC) and they got in as a 9 seed.....and it was with an easier schedule than what we have this year... espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/team/schedule/_/id/333/year/2012/alabama-crimson-tideyou are fooling yourself into believing you should be a lock in with even 10 or 11 losses dont use the alabama arguement either. the SEC was very good last year with vanderbilt, florida, and the obvious champion kentucky. there schedule was much much much tougher than what your is now you guys are not even on the bubble right now, because you would not get in right now when its all said and done. arkansas has little room for error of they even want to sniff a shot to get in will they get in? maybe, but highly unlikely IMO. for the NIT though, they should be able to at least make that

there schedule was much much much tougher than what your is now No...we've already played 2 top 10 teams...and we still play Florida twice, and Mizzou twice. Wiscy just beat Indiana...ASU, A&M, and Ole Miss are also good teams. We play A&M again later in the year..and Kentucky...we have a rough schedule..if we can split with Mizzou, and beat Kentucky OR A&M, and win the rest of our games, which we should...we'll finish with 10 losses and should be in the tournament...we also host Kentucky and A&M, so those are definitely winnable games..that would give us a 10 loss season and we should definitely get in...tell me what I'm missing...how come Bama can lose 11 games with what seems to be an easier schedule to me...and get a 9 seed and we probably won't even GET IN with 10 losses....

IMO Arkansas does make it, but jancey, it's not a guarantee like you say it is. Michigan used to go something around 20-11 every year, and we had to hope they called our name on selection sunday. Sometimes we got in, sometimes we didn't. IMO Arkansas will, no guarantee though.

Forget making the tournament. Arkansas absolutely sucks on the road...we got freaking RAPED by South Carolina...they went on a 33-4 run at one point. The most pathetic crap I've ever seen in my life. Might as well pencil in every road game this year as a loss...I doubt we can even win @ Tennessee...or @ anywhere.... 0-6 on the road. Anderson this is on you. This should not be happening. Fix this. If it's still the same story next year, I will have lost faith in you already. I think Anderson is a great coach, but you can't go 0-6 on the road and expect go anywhere. This was just a sad, sad performance.
