That loss to Auburn is a back breaker. If we had won that game, all we'd have to do, in my opinion, is win 1 game in the SECT and we'd be dancing. Bad losses down the stretch can kill your shot at dancing, and that was a really bad loss.

To be fair, the only reason we went from "no chance unless we win the SECT" to lunardi's "last 4 out" in the span of 3 days is because of our very good wins down the stretch. Just sayin..


At any rate, regardless of lamenting the bad losses or propping up the good wins...can we call agree how incredible it is to still have tourney hopes in March? I've followed the program for a little while and I'm sure there are many here who have followed it since before I was born. We aren't UK and never will be, but man it feels awesome to be where we are right now. IMO anyway. I feel like gone are the days where double digit overall wins was an ok year. We can debate on Fox for days but bottom line is this program is in much better shape and on far more solid footing than it has been in YEARS. And that's pretty exciting.

But what about all the close games we won or games we won that we shouldn't have?

Look, I love UGA. Graduated from UGA. Played for UGA. But in all honesty, this team is not even close to being tournament worthy. We absolutely don't deserve to even be considered. We need to get rid of Fox, spend some money on a new staff and lift our restrictions on recruiting AAU kids hardcore.
