We could lose to either, but LSU is worse. They just sat in a zone for the whole game against us in Coleman.

I feel like a smart team against Bama should play a box 1 variation Instead of best man defender as 1, make it your worst and put him on Riley

The man defender is mostly just to keep Riley from easy open looks. Don't worry much about Riley beating him

Basically, protect the paint and make someone not Riley hit a 3.

I could definitely see that working. Then again just about everything works against our offense.

I'm headed up to Nashville (just for tomorrow) for my first ever SEC tourney games. Pumped! Might be disappointed by about 4:30 tomorrow but oh well. Roll Tide!

Why wouldn't they play these first round games earlier in the day?

It would make sense to give them more time before they have to play tomorrow.

Probably to get the TV time slot for it + attendance

No one is going to watch a Wed game for 11-14 seeds during work hours. TV or in person

I don't think many will watch these matchups regardless of what time they are.

OT, but watching the ACC tourney (Cuse vs Canes) this afternoon. I noticed only 10 fouls were called total in the first half. Neither team got in the bonus. Only one team was in the bonus in the second half. The game didn't get stopped every trip down the floor. Was actually half way enjoyable to watch. SEC, please take notes.

Have we had ANY halves this year where we didn't put the other team in bonus?

I was really hoping Auburn would make another "Relevant" SEC tourney shirt. Maybe next year.

I can't believe they lost to Mizzou

They got a terrible offensive foul call on them down the stretch to be fair.

Mizzou shoots 28% 3FG on the year.

So of course they shoot 16/34, including buzzer beater to tie and buzzer beater for OT win

The most bullshite though was how the guy clearly flops to draw charge to set up final 3. That is a shite call in general but under 20s left?

Sounds about right for refs that called like 4 techs (3 for talking to non refs w/o warning), 1 flagrant, 49 fouls and generally sucked for both sides

First I'll say We played terrible and didn't earn a win.

That said, to lose because of that is complete bullshite. If Mizz stole the ball or actuall took a charge, fair we blew it. For the ref to hand them the ball?

I really wish they stole the ball or something so I could be pissed at our team. Feels like we got cheated which is worse than shitting the bed
