Thanks to Arkansas' loss to Georgia, our path to destiny remarkably remains the same for a third straight gameday: Texas A&M, Auburn, LSU/South Carolina/Arkansas, Kentucky/Florida.

Somehow, we are still hanging onto the last bye, though we are now closer to 13th (Cuonzo must think this is the greatest conference of all time) than we are to ninth. Even if LSU helps us and beats Arkansas on Wednesday, a loss to Ole Miss would create a three-way tie for 10th that I believe Arkansas would win. If Georgia also wins and makes it a four-way tie, then Mizzou actually stays in the 10th spot going into the final day of the regular season.

Another interesting fact: Mizzou can actually clinch no worse than the 10th seed (ie not having to play Wednesday in Nashville) if it wins at Ole Miss and Arkansas loses to LSU.

Isn't discussing 10th-place tiebreakers fun?
