High probability we play Florida again in SEC. Thinking they get #8 seed and Bama #9 seed if they lose at Kentucky on Saturday.

Much more important obviously to win the SEC season championship than the tournament. So in other words Florida can suck it

Those 3 losses against, Fla State, Okla state and Houston early in the season really helped mature this team making them Road Warriors during the SEC season....9-0 on the road with mostly Freshman and Sophomore players....WoW....

Most good college teams have mostly freshman and sophmore players.
