Oklahoma is beating no 5 Texas right now

Cooper vs Butler will be a good matchup though, I'll watch it, but I'll be shocked if Auburn keeps it within 15.
I hope they do honestly, that would be huge for the SEC for Auburn to hang with Baylor.
I will be pulling for all the SEC teams on Saturday.

Well they were playing the #5 team in the country not a team that is 5-9, but yea maybe.
When a thread exists to basically be a bar where we all sit around and watch the game people are going to comment on negative plays
Nobody is running around bitching about that win after the game.

It be good to see the SEC fare well .
Big 12 is deep, talented, many consider the top conference.

After scoring 19 Pts tonight, Russell Westbrook now has 163 points on 163 shots this season
AKA the Cam Thomas method.

Even if they win it’s not something to not be worried about. This is as much on oats as the team.
Certainly, there is no way we can let the team or staff off of the hook. We are going to find a reason to blast them. Winning is definitely no free pass from being excoriated by your fan base. You must win and look invincible - that may work if they feel generous.
9-0 in SEC play with a 3 game lead. Whew, thankfully they're not 8-1 or they would really have to duck out of the way of the tomatoes from the gallery.

I mean Oats literally echoed what Vidic said in his post game press conference. He took blame and said the offense was an issue and we need to figure out how to fix it. Which is awesome and I love to hear him bluntly note areas that need improvement even when we are winning so much.
So....

There is a small subset of Alabama fans, a lot of them on Reddit for whatever reason, who believe that you are a trashy Gump if you offer even mild, reasonable criticism of a team or player.

Not really. 95% of it is OK. There's one mod and like 5-6 other posters who will flat out ruin threads by filling them up with a bunch of smug nonsense if anyone's opinion gets a little too positive or a little too negative for their taste.

Anybody have any idea why KAH only played one minute? Seems like he came in the game early

Then we also have a lot of fans who said Oats should be fired last year and are the reason Oats daughter had to defend him on Twitter. Oats deleted twitter off his phone, and made a comment about fans attacking him on twitter last year as the reason why.
We had some idiot fans claim we looked just like last year tonight due to this being the only game of the season they have probably watched so far.
There is nothing wrong with criticism of a team or coach if it's reasonable. Let's not act like we don't have some insane fans though.
Vidic made fair points, we did mostly suck on offense tonight. When Kentucky went to zone we couldn't do anything, and Stanford beat us playing zone, it's something we are gonna have to get better at if we want to make it to the sweet 16 or further.

The top end games look unfavorable to the SEC.
Auburn v Baylor
Kentucky v. Texas
Florida v. West Virginia
LSU v. Texas Tech
Wouldn't be surprised to see the SEC go 0-4 here.
Alabama v. Oklahoma
Tennessee v. Kansas
Missouri v. TCU
SEC at best goes 2-1 here.
No idea about the remaining undercards.

I think it's possible to go 3 and 0 there, 2 and 1 is more probable.
Winning one of the top 4 you posted would be huge.

Was talking earlier about the hard 4 game stretch we had coming up with Kentucky, Oklahoma, LSU, Mizzou...
Oklahoma played #6 Texas tonight, has #9 Alabama Saturday, then they play, in a row ...
#10 Texas Tech
Iowa State
#2 Baylor
#11 West Virginia
#6 Texas again
