Auburn men crack latest NIT projection

As I mentioned in a previous post, I like to frequent a site called NIT-ology, a bracket projection for the second-tiered tournament most teams are bummed to make at the end of the season.

Auburn, I'm sure, would be thrilled to make the field. In the latest projection, done Tuesday, the site has the Tigers as a No. 7 seed.

It's still early and it's still just a projection (despite the Web site's minimalist design, it's still incredibly accurate), but that puts Auburn in good shape, especially if it can get at least one victory in either of its two remaining matchups with LSU, the only ranked team in the SEC.

Auburn has not qualified for the postseason in any of coach Jeff Lebo's first four seasons.

"It's too early to talk about it," Lebo said. "I think they know about the importance of it. It's still not there yet, I think, to talk about it too much right now. Our focus right now, with our staff and with our team is just staying the course and that big old cliche, one game at a time. That's what you've got to do. You can control a little bit here. We can't control who picks them in the end. This is how we can control it -- by each game."
