Yea, UGA doesn't need any bad losses to close the season. Yesterday was a pretty bad one.

Part of it...Arkansas would be 11-1 with the proper non foul call at UF and Beard making free throws at TN.

I just don't think LSU has the coaching or the bench right now. I know LSU has been through its share of coaches lately, but it was very evident in the last two timeouts at home against UK.

I think Ole Miss needs to hit 22 wins to be safely in come selection sunday. Whether that's only loosing 1 more in the regular season, or winning a game or two in the SEC tournament, I think 22 is the magic number for us this year.

We're inconsistent, part due to having no bench, part due to poor coaching.

But we have proven we can beat anyone, so it's just a matter of getting to the NCAAT at this point, whether it's as a 8 seed or 11 seed, doesnt matter just gotta get there and prove we can beat a few very good teams. The only positive to ocme out of this season to me is Jarell Martin should definitely be back next year (likely lose Mickey), so the team next year should rape.

As of now, Arkansas is a lock.
Would you like an explanation as to what a "lock" is?

Anyone saying Arkansas isn't a lock right now is off their rocker.

Bro, you can't be a lock right now. Kentucky is the only lock. Arky finishes poorly and y'all are out.

Finish poorly?

Arkansas would need to lose out.

Arkansas doesn't have a bad loss all year. Good OOC wins.

Just stop it

LSU is also 4-2 in top 50, 2-0 on the road top 50, and 8-4 against top 100, and has better top wins that any of the teams on the list. Arkansas is not a lock yet, although they are in good shape. I don't think any of the teams outside of KY are going very far in the tourney, but Arky is no better than LSU. LSU has, as you stated, had some very bad losses.....eliminate those couple of losses, and LSU is the clear #2 in the field, hands down. I'm not sure about the Georgia love you are giving...nor the Ole Miss.

not really. They would need to lose about 3 games to be squarely on the bubble. Despite what you think, Arkansas hasn't beaten a team that will likely win an NCAA trny game. I'm not sure why you are talking Arkansas up so much. The sec, outside of KY, is very weak this year.

Just stop pointing out that you are overestimating Arky's tourney status? I thought that's the argument we were having

All 4 of the "bubble" teams you listed can finish with a better record than Arky. That would push y'all out. What you meant was "tourney chances looking good for Arky".

You are making yourself look dumb now if you think Ark hasn't beaten anyone that would win a tourney game.

3 losses wouldn't put Arkansas "squarely" on the bubble.

Arkansas has a top 17 RPI right now. Likely projected as a 5 seed come the latest braketology. Not one "bad" loss on their resume. Arkansas has OOC wins against SMU, Dayton, and Iona. All top 52 RPI wins OOC. All will make the NCAA tourney. All will likely not lose in the first round,mad you say.

I'm not sure why you're trying to talk Arkansas down...

Yea, I actually think he is.

Bad losses are what make teams bad. It's pretty simple.

Arkansas beat two top 15 teams under Pelphrey OOC one season. If you take away the 14 bad losses in league play, that team is first in the league.
