I don’t disagree but everyone seems confident we are safe. I don’t see how but I’m glad. Can’t lose to UGA midweek.

Prolly to get us over the 50 point hump

Scoring in the 40's is embarrassing

The same reason teams like bama are still on the bubble. It is a pretty low bar to get into the tournament.

Yep our average margin for loss was like 6 points and wins were 19. This one ain’t gonna help.

Which makes our run from 2004-2018 all the more depressing.

Auburn should pull it off against Georgia. I don’t like the matchups against State though. That could be our make or break game.

If we got flushed in the sex tournament early and badly, but go 2-2 to end the season, are we still in?



Autocorrect wanted me to go with sex instead of sec and I'm going to leave it.

Are we really this worse than last season or is the league catching up?

What’s the consensus around here?

Imo it's a little of both.

I think we are worse. Murray was not much on offense but an elite rebounder. Mustapha had a knack for stopping the ball when he got it but he opened up the offense with his driving ability. We severely underestimated the importance of their presence.

We can't score on the inside. We struggle on the road. We have a good basketball team..........we just aren't as good as we thought we would be. The guys coming back from the one year off have not progressed. They may actually have regressed. We will probably make the Tourney, but I don't see us advancing far.

And then apparently Davion was an out of left field departure. And his perimeter defense was legit.

Unfortunately Shariffe is also at this game


I read earlier today, that he did not make the trip to the game.

Not sure it matters. He will pick KY if KY puts on a strong effort to want him...

I was fishing and didn't get to see the game today. Was it raining 3's again?

We aren’t getting into the tournament we shouldn’t even be considered as a bubble team.

No marquee wins, no road wins except Vandy, we have no resume




Not true. We shoot more 3's than anyone

Heron was better one on one than anyone on this roster.

The power forward that transferred was more active and versatile on offense than any of the current bigs.
