We're a lock.

We're a lock.

Agree, I thought OU was undervalued prior to the TCU loss at 10 but now it seems about right.

Oklahoma: Oklahoma has been in great tournament shape for the majority of the past month -- the Sooners have been playing solid hoops, and their RPI and SOS figures are great -- but it nonetheless entered Saturday outside the comfort of lockdom. And then the Sooners lost to TCU. That probably isn't enough to put Oklahoma below a score of the teams you see here, but when you really dig in to its résumé, there's not much about it that screams "lock." A first-round loss to Iowa State next week could have the Sooners wavering by Selection Sunday.

Funny that quality wins against Kansas and Oklahoma State don't mean anything, or having one of the strongest schedules of the so-called bubble teams. I think we're still on the right side of the bubble if we lose to Iowa State, but I'd rather we win and not have to worry about it.

Written by some guy named Eamonn Brennan, not Lunardi. I think worst case scenario is one of those play in games.

10 seeds have not played in the 'First Four'.
Since expanding to 68, being on that 11 line is a potential ticket to Dayton.

Here is to hoping we just beat ISU and lock up a solid 10 seed.

On Lunardi's S-curve he has us as team# 37; the best 10 seed. He also lists us as a "Teams with tourney odds of 90 percent or better through games of March 10". This would indicate he thinks we are close to being a lock.

Agreed. We can all relax if that happens.

might not be the end of the world to have a warm up game

I just hope that we beat ISU and that none of these conference tournaments are going to get teams in that weren't going to get in unless they won their tournament.

If we do that then his entire exercise has been pointless
