The homer in me thinks they maybe squeak into a 9 seed even if they lose on Thursday, but that looks about right. More importantly, there's little functional difference unless they get up to the 6 line, IMO. Facing someone of similar caliber in the 7-10 cohort with a 1-2 seed in their backyard if you win is gonna be true unless they get up to 6. 11 seeds are pretty salty too, but the 3 seeds are where the dropoff in quality happens and it's less likely to be a geographic disadvantage.

I'm also not entirely unsure they won't try to shoehorn Mizzou and Kansas into the same region, with Kansas as a 2 and Mizzou as a 7 or 10.

Also saw that Mark Smith is transferring from Illinois. I'd have to imagine Mizzou will have interest. The Illini reportedly aren't blocking him from any school.

I didn't even realize that the SEC Tournament is in St. Louis until just a couple of days ago. They've had the intersection of 14th and Clark blocked off all week for the event and this morning I saw that they set up tents in the middle of the street since yesterday morning.

Downtown and Soulard should really be hopping this weekend!

Running everything through MPJ has Kash and Barnett totally off their rhythm. Not looking good.
