    metrics will not/ever be issue for UF.. IMO need 1 more series win and avoid sweep in other 2. Series record as important as total wins IMO. And the Mizzu factor is unknown this year

    UF rpi /sos didnt change btw. same as last week pre Ark. went to 18th after 1st win.

    Arkansas has a real mother of a schedule down the stretch. Texas, at LSU and Tennessee. Two of them are home series, but man that's tough.

    5-6 wins is possible the way they're fighting lately.

    Yeah I was wondering if they finished like 16-14 having lost 5 or 6 of their last 7 series if they would still be a top 16 host?

    Normally you need a 5-5 series record and 15+ to host. They are 14-7 w/ 4 series wins now.. Unless lose all 3 series they probaly host. Still #5 rpi also

    I don't think they lose all 3, but it wouldn't surprise me either.

    Valid point....but i think you can stretch it to top 40-45
    33 at large bids, 31 auto bids. But a lot of the auto bids are also top 20-30 teams.....so you can increase that 33 at large by another 8-12 most years. Obviously you don't want to see a ton of crazy upset winners in tourneys

    Can’t argue without that. Top 30 all but guarantees you a spot though. Start sliding towards that 40 range and they give your spot to a barely eligible sully team. :p

    Had UF more in the 24/25 range, but hd to adjust for same conference. Which i still disagree with. Play it as its seeded, if 3 from same conf.. oh well.
