We are going to have to start winning some of these tough games. Especially at home. Hopefully Mclemore will step it up.
Agreed. It's great that we have zero bad losses but at some point we need a good win or two. Don't want to be in the 7-10 seed range.

Unfortunately, I think our team and some of our fans needed the loss yesterday to Kentucky. Reality check and a good measurement of where we're at as a program..

We are right on up there with Kentucky. We were In good position to win if Harper’s layup didn’t bounce out. Plus no Wiley. Go toot tbe BBN horn elsewhere.

We aren't there yet.. even though Harper's layup would've seemingly won it. My point is that this loss might be a good motivator moving forward, knowing that we're certainly CAPABLE but let it slip away. You'll always remember the losses more than the wins. By depth standards, we're a deeper team with Wiley but I'm not convinced we're a better team with him. Our quick, run and gun style, with every player on the court able to stretch a defense while defending the rim, causes serious problems for opposing teams.
Don't tell me to go somewhere else. It's extremely rich as you've been banned from here before. You didn't have a choice at one point in time. There isn't anything wrong with having differing opinions and it's important that you're able, willing to discuss those things with others. This isn't an echo chamber..

The UK game solidified to me that we are better with him. UK scored a huge chunk of their points because McLemore and Horace couldn’t handle their bigs.

Auburn needs to win the big games left in conference and we can start by winning @State. Need to win @LSU , @UK , and vs Tenn

I guarantee to you that I didn’t get banned for promoting an echo chamber. You clearly have an affinity for the BBN and you have repeatedly brought up their program against ours. The game doesn’t show where we are at. If anything it shows where we could be at. We are upset about a close loss to Kentucky. Not happy. Upset. We should have beat them.

I don't think the polls are out yet. From everything I have seen, those are the power rankings....we were at 16 in them
Posted on 1/21/19 at 12:16 pm to MrAUTigers
We are 16 in AP poll.

Not bad. We need to finish strong
Posted on 1/21/19 at 1:03 pm to MsGarrison
We have been in the top 25 for a full calendar year now
Posted on 1/21/19 at 1:07 pm to auburnnyc94
Hopefully we can stay within for much longer. We may not be Duke or Tennessee good rn, but we have the pieces to stay in tbe top 25 for awhile.
Posted on 1/21/19 at 1:07 pm to auburnnyc94
Yup. We need to win both games this week and at LSU next week

Did I say that you did? Maybe you need to try and understand what someone is saying. Grow up. We all know why you got banned.. basically the same group is still here and it wasn't very long ago. Wanting someone that differs in opinion of you, to simply go somewhere else, is promoting an echo chamber and echo chambers aren't healthy.

I have an affinity for the truth and the only times I've talked about Kentucky, is when it was relevant to the subject at hand. Like when Kentucky started recruiting Sharife Cooper Jr hard and how that might change things with us or when I said Kentucky basketball is still Kentucky and still recruiting at a high level. I just wasn't ready to write them off as not being Kentucky anymore like you and GeneChin were. They are still the standard in the SEC.

The game doesn’t show where we are at. If anything it shows where we could be at.

I’m not engaging with all of that. It’s fine.

I'm still on the fence, although that was definitely the case Saturday. I wish someone would do a statistical analysis of us with Wiley on/off the court.

I think against most teams we are better without him. I just think there are certain teams that he is vital in us having a shot (ie any team with a 5 that can take over a game)

You are right.. I'm starting to think, or maybe optimisticly hoping, this team will be the opposite of last years. Not as consistent of a season but a tougher out come tournament time.
