Great day of basketball. It's 2-2 after 4 games. LSU controlled Texas til late but held on to win. Miss St. lost a squeaker to OU in OKC.

Big wins by Bama & Kentucky gives the SEC a 5-4 lead. If y'all can't tell this is one of my favorite basketball days of the year outside the NCAA Tourney. #SEC #GoGators

It’s kinda weird how we root for SEC in other sports not named football.

The only negative I had from the SEC then was Mullen's crap.

Bruce is all the time talking about representing the SEC and rooting for the conference. I guess we benefit more in basketball when we have a stronger conference.

We do because we don't own basketball like we do football & because we all addect each others tournament resumes.

The SEC doing better in basketball has tangible direct impacts

- More NCAAT bids and favorable bubble treatment
- More NCAAT bids = more conf $ distribution
- More natl televised games
- Better NCAAT seeding


Then there are the indirect impacta

- Increased bball popularity in South
- More recruits want to play in SEC
- More $ = Better facilities/coaches = Better Product

Some of that can be said for football as well.

Even though I know a strong league in sports is better for our programs, I do not care if all the other schools lose and will not root for them to win. Frick them all in the arse #2010 #Cam #GoOregon! Frick em all to hell!

I cannot pull for Bama or UGA in any sport. Hate Mullen and MSU over the Cam issue. Don’t care if any other SEC team wins or loses. In Basketball, a strong conference helps our resume, so it helps Auburn.
