While the odds of being off one night while the other guy hits every shot are there .....the next time someone says that about losing .....punch them in the mouth.

May be a motivation tactic to keep his kids hungry and prevent them from resting on their recent achievements.

The only team that came out with their hair on fire against us was Ole Miss. They literally could not miss. They also proved that a team returns to the mean within the game usually.

We have enough talent and capability across our 9-11 players that if one or two is off, we should still be able to win. If Bruce is able to keep them hungry and motivated......we may not lose again.

The possibility of losing is there with any game though, especially the road games.

Losing 2 or 3 doesn’t matter. What matters is peaking at the right time.

Agreed. I also think this is to keep them from taking a possible loss too hard and letting it derail them from the ultimate goal. I love Bruce!

Don't think this team has peaked yet. The adjustments to get Kessler involved in the offense (pick & roll lobs) has paid dividends. I think we will see more adjustments to get Jabari involved too. The offense keeps improving and as the season progresses I think it will get better. So many weapons to use. Also, Cambridge has shifted his role from jacking up 3s to helping free up other scorers.

We are damn good and I think the best case we have for not losing is...you can tell these guys don't like to lose.

At the end of the day, we want a number one seed, and personally, I would prefer to win the SEC tourney again. 2014 Kentucky started 38-0, and lost in the final 4 to a number 3 seed. So going undefeated through the season does not make anything automatic.

I've heard and seen what Bruce says .....Typical coach on a win streak. You know it will happen ....When is the question.

Kentucky is already out there blaming everything but the bright lights in the stadium for their collapse.....

I look forward to not playing them in the SEC Tourney because they were eliminated the night before.

We're not going to go undefeated in the SEC. Just want to win the SEC, regardless.

Too many good teams we still play on the road.

As long as we play well and lose, then I know we are still parlaying at that high level.
