Agree 100%. It is hilarious to hear so many fans say how great of a season it was. No it wasn't. Finishing the last 10 games at .500 isn't a good season.

I mean that’s kind of a loaded sentence. This season was clearly a success by any measure. This game was clearly a failure by any measure. If we go on a three to five year run with early bounce outs to lower seeded teams in the tourney then yeah the groaning will naturally start to come (look at UT). But if you are examining a whole season based on what happens in a single elimination tournament you’re bound to be miserable

Give me a break. We won the season title.

Like you said, we were lucky to get that with how shitty we played the last half of the season. It's not that we lost, it's how bad we looked losing.

Still a good year.

Relatively in Auburns history this is a great season, but now Bruce has created expectations.

The new Auburn, having been ranked number 1, having a lottery pick and potentially another first rounder, you cannot lay an egg like this.

They did something this year that had only happened four times prior in school history. It wasn’t a great year by Duke standards but it absolutely was a great year for Auburn basketball.
