18 wins is a lock for us to get into the tourney, not sniffing at the chance.I'm not worried so much about having a "quality" win as I am about having a "win".
Lose tonight and we likely end the non-con 8-4 (not counting Auburn which probably makes us 8-5). We'd have to win 10 games in the Big 12 to even be sniffing a shot. Iowa and Oregon St. would be bad loses come tourney time.
