If being a early tournament exit, but still SEC championship winner is the worst Bruce has to offer then I'll take it

So just for clarity — other than Bruce's Final Four season, you're fine with him winning three NCAAT games total in an entire decade, and continuing to lose in the First Round, as long as he occasionally wins the end-of-season SEC Tournament in Nashville like his team did this year?

Yep. Auburn didn’t sniff the tournament when I was a student. What he’s done is nothing short of amazing.

I am not leaving out Bruce's final four year because you sure as frick are happy to include yours.

He beat 12 seed New Mexico State, 4 seed Kansas, 1 seed North Carolina, and 2 seed Kentucky in one year.

He also has more than an occasional tourney championship.

So why are you lying?

Losing a tournament game comes down to matchup sometimes.

Sometimes officials can make a call that really determines the outcome.

Sometimes the team lays an egg.

A tourney run often needs some luck as well. Good play can help, and sometimes you draw good matchups.
