One glorious week we can also kiss any hopes of being a top 5 seed goodbye


Its getting close to the time that we face the music with Mike. Are we a serious basketball program or not. Because a serious school isnt gonna aettle for just making the tourney in year 7. I say if he doesnt get to the sweet 16 by this year or the next we cut bait.

The trash that was played tonight doesn't deserve to be ranked. We didn't even look like a competent basketball team.

ETA: Picked it up late, but there's no excuse for how we played the first 75% of that game.

While I still wholeheartedly support Mike, I’m a little frustrated with not being able to take the next step, esp given everything that is coming back this year. It’d be good to be competitive on the road.

An absolutely hideous first half that we had no chance of coming back from, though we at least put up a respectable loss.

And, yes, we started off horribly last year as well. Still a disheartening loss from the team and we can probably kiss being ranked goodbye for a few weeks at best.

It's early and we lost a couple road games to 13-1 teams. Relax.

To be in such "Good Shape" and be prepared to "Be 40 Mins of?"

we sure look soft, slow, and uninvolved the entire 1st half.

that was terrible to watch and wasn't anything close to a fastest 40...

There's losing and then there's a "motion" offense standing around watching the shot clock wind down repeatedly.

Coach speak from Mike

We were playing back on our heels #Fastest40

We got a taste of playing on the road and it wasn't kind to us. #lol


We did all of the other things that gave us a chance. #Waittilnextyear


Daniel was effective but he got some of those touch fouls. #Wegonnapickumupoffthebus.


Hello Mike, it's not the mid 90's

Probably. I don't see us getting more than 2 road wins and that's a stretch. But we are a dangerous tourney team. Going to have to do it as a 7-8 seed.

And now they'll come home and win both next week looking good again and go about 10-6 in conference play and get a 6-7 seed like just about everyone thought coming into the year.

Bert always got off to those slow starts too.

Look, it's year 7 and we have a team with 6 seniors, and we look like a team that will be on the bubble. We were lucky to come back and beat Tennessee at BWA and we have proven we can't win SEC games on the road. We will be lucky to finish .500 in conference play. Mike Anderson's seat should be warming up. We deserve better than this and the last 20 years.
