It still counts just like 2018 Auburn and 2017 South Carolina's will count after they are vacated

NCAA is a sham

So we can blame Bama for our admin hiring Stan Heath over Bill Self after that season.

We should have lost the FAU game. It was a 1 or 2 possession game in the final 2 minutes.

Then we got dick kicked by Antonio Gates.

I went to that Sweet 16 in Knoxville. It was awesome.

St Johns had Ron Artest, Bootsy Thornton and Lavor Postell. Maryland had Steve Francis. Ohio State had Scoonie Penn and Michael Redd.

That was a damn good regional.
