All hope is not lost for a 7 seed...
Our projected RPI is 15 if we win out. Yes, we have zero marquee wins and that is a humungous hurdle to overcome in the eyes of the committee, but with no losses outside the top 100 and an RPI of 15 is very much still in the running for a 7 seed. Yes, last year our RPI was 16 and we were given an 8 seed, but that was also a pretty good shafting. Even some of the media agreed it was. Right now it doesn't feel like we could get a 7 because this pitiful performance is still fresh on our minds, but if we win out from here we have a good shot at that 7 seed. I think it will be about a 50/50 chance we get it Selection Sunday barring we win out.
If you look at RPI alone, 15th would be in line for a 4 seed. If they punished us 3 seeding spots we would get a 7 seed. Hopefully they wouldn't go full fledge on us like last year and punish us a full 4 seeeding lines and make us an 8 seed again.
