Herb needs to sit the LSU game.

That call on Herb made absolutely no sense with the sound muted. I couldn’t even figure out what they called him for - I didn’t know until literally right now that it was for a “moving screen”.

But my commitment to not hearing Dan Dakich is pretty strong.


Dakich did say it was a terrible call.

Herb must have banged all 3 refs' wives at halftime or something. They had it out for him in the 2nd half.

We'd probably lose without him

Herb could definitely use a night off at some point, but I thought he looked healthier tonight than he did last time out.

In fact, the bright spots for me in the second half were: a) Herb’s all around game, and b) Keon.

We seriously need a full week off. We need to COVID cancel the week when we play Vanderbilt and Georgia to get a week of rest and avoid terrible losses

Beginning to wonder if we're even going to play the bottom of the SEC. Got LSU next, then a road trip to Mizzou.

Our guys can't catch a break.

I agree and I’ll add that Alabama is a good team but no way in hades are they a 2 or even 3 seed. They have to snap out of the offensive slide they’ve experienced over the last three games. This game was winnable if they make some free throws, layups and open 3s.
Top ranked teams win games like this.

Then who is? For 3 weeks we were a #1 seed efficiency wise. The last 3 games we've been more like a #8 seed efficiency wise. We're probably overall somewhere in-between.

Take a look at other teams #8-16 or so. They aren't any better than we are.

What if I told you that LSU’s defense is the break

A stopped clock is right twice a day. I don't think there is a more universally hated color commentator in college or pro sports than Dan Dakich. I've literally never heard or seen anyone have anything remotely positive to say about him.

They will be a borderline top 10 team. Probably 11-12

So do other teams. I'm not going to assume we'll keep playing this just like I didnt assume we'd keep playing we did the first 6-7 games of SEC play.

A lot of people are overreacting to a loss to a top 10 team. Shack isn't terrible, Quinerly isn't terrible. We have won a lot of games in a row with both of those guys playing great.

People have off games and get in slumps. We will be fine.


No one believes the sky is falling other than the fans that just jumped on board. Screw ‘em.

It’s okay to actually talk about bad things that have happened recently. It’s a message board. There’s no denying Quinerly has been terrible in the last 3 games, which coincides with our struggles in the last 3 games. No one is saying he’s a terrible player, but the last 3 games have been a huge struggle for him. Even Oats realizes it which is why he only played 13 minutes in a game where defense wasn’t the issue.

Yea. I think we will be fine.
Need to get healthy and gets some guys going again.
Biggest issue will be PG. Need Q and Primo to step it up.

The biggest thing we have in our corner is that night in and night out we are an elite defense.

I mean if we want to discuss something positive, Alex Reese has finally found his big boy pants and I wouldn't hate him coming back next year if it won't frick up our scholarship numbers. Also, Keon Ellis needs to play more. He's an absolutely incredible on ball defender.

Right which is not a 2 or 3 seed at this point.
