Pretty surprised by the Auburn picks

For us to make the Final Four one of two things will happen/become apparent -

1) We'll need to warm up considerably and get Jabari some help, our guards probably can't play like they have been or else we may not get to the S16.

2) Alternatively, the SEC is shown to be far more formidable than given credit for, and Auburn's close losses to Arky, UT, etc. are shown to be the equivalent of Elite 8 type games. In other words, Auburn, even in a perhaps lessened state, is still able to run through decent non-conf opponents to get to the F4.

As much as I hated seeing Auburn knocked out early in the SEC tournamnet, it has a silver lining. They are now well rested, and hopefully healed up. It's apparent that Kessler's should tweak has affected his game. With the extra time to prepare, I trust Bruce will address the poor shot selection issues, and draw up a strategy that takes advantage of our strengths. Kessler on the post up and Jabari's shooting. Looking at the bracket, I very much like Auburn's chances to make it to the Final 4. If they get hot, few teams match up well against them.
