I thought about including a disclaimer for snb

Agreed. It would be impossible to think we could sustain a 3 month heater. I just didn’t think we’d revert back this far.
To be honest I don't have much expectation that we get back to anything close to what we were then.
I just hope we win the SEC and get a high enough seed we can scratch into the Sweet 16.

We would have given our left nut for this the last 7 years.

True, these are the bubble games we would have lost. We are playing for a 2/3 seed instead of a BIRTH. This is a huge difference.

Great tough win, but Oats looked absolutely beside himself. 20+ turnovers? Do the guys not look at that and see that has continually kept teams in the game? Some of it will die down hopefully when we get guys with better ball handling and higher basketball IQs.
Good news is the got better rhythm and played at a faster pace. Good things happen when Primo is more involved.

Every Kentucky game is exactly the same. It's wild.

I’m not sure there’s a world of difference between an 11-1 team in conference and a 5-6 team this year. South Carolina might be bad but they beat Florida a few games ago (and lost to fricking Vanderbilt right before that) and we’re just not a team that is going to run you off the court with our talent.
I mean we are clearly better than these teams - it’s not like we just stumbled into being 11-1. But we can’t just frick around and expect to run teams off the court.
None of this is really news, obviously.
At least Quinerly has 10, 12, and 13 in the last three games. Signs of life, even if he’s still making some bad plays at times.

That’s what I’m saying... collectively, we’re griping about a road win in February to get to 11-1 and all but ensure a regular season championship.
2 of the next 3 at home and we’re playing the worst teams in the conference. Ask me if I give a damn if we clinch a league title against Vandy.

No, you are clueless. A reg season SEC Championship is a big deal.

I'll feel better if we don't frick around and let Aggy and Vandy hang around. They're both hot garbage, and we really need to take the opportunity to get some shite figured out. Because right now this team looks like a 3 seed that could lose to a 14 seed.

I mean obviously Bama isn’t playing well but they’ve been in every game, at the end, that theyve played most recently. And those were good teams. I’m really curious and optimistic to see what they look like healthy again. If they’re in every game playing horrible and injured what could this team do healthy and playing well?

Everybody complains about Herb running point, but Quinerly is showing us why it’s happening. It’s one thing turning over the ball with a defender reading your pass than losing the ball because of a shaky handle...
Posted on 2/9/21 at 7:55 pm to BigBird09
Trying to keep my expectations in check and then I flip over to the Kentucky game and hear Jimmy Dykes calling Bama a final 4 team with a healthy Herb.
Let's just win the conference and hang a banner.

Quinerly has been better these last 3 games. He is finding his groove back.
Posted on 2/9/21 at 7:55 pm to Robot Santa
If we lose a home game we may slip to a 4 or 5 seed. I don’t think we do, but we can’t get Bruner back soon enough. We have some of the most inconsistent players and I feel like Bruner, if anything, is a pretty consistent 6-10 points and 6-8 rebounds which is huge and provides depth.

I mean, this is the difference between making the NCAAT, not to mention seeding, and making the NIT. There is a world of difference. It hasn't been pretty but we've pulled out wins. I never once felt tonight like we would lose, and in years past I was sure of it.
Team's got grit, for sure. We just do some really dumb shite. Really, dumb shite.

Yea I mean I think we all know the difference as we've been the 5-6 team that is 15 pts from being 8-3.
Of anybody we should understand that winning close games is a thing that isn't just a given. No matter how shitty you play.

Sorry if this has been answered bc I didn’t get to watch game til late in second half but did they ever say what Gary’s injury was ?
Posted on 2/9/21 at 7:58 pm to Bear88
I haven’t heard, but I may have missed it. It appears to be a dislocated shoulder if I had to guess.
