I can't visualize the UF- Ole Miss game being close. Ole Miss put all their eggs in the Beat A&M basket (Texas A&M is another reeling team) and that didn't work out for them. I would be shocked if today's game gets within double digits after about 15 minutes of play. Ole Miss has some talent but their pieces just don't assemble this year.

We always seem to shoot poorly in that gym, or at least it seems like it to me.

Ala -6.5 seems low but they probably didn't practice after the Ark game


I can see the logic with Alabama coming off the marathon game with Arkansas on Wednesday.

LSU is also better than their SEC record suggests. They're dead last in "luck" metrics for major programs this year because they're predictive metrics ( #52 in KenPom) show they've played well enough to have few more wins and actually around the NCAA tourney bubble in performance.

I expect LSU to play one of their best games of the season today and Bama to be sluggish after the 2OT thriller on Wednesday. Hoping Bama can regroup in the 2nd half and pull out the win, but this will likely be closer than what it should be if both teams were locked in.

We are dogs so Vegas thinks we lose.

But then again they had us losing to Tennessee.

The thing that is aggravating is that we never know what UK team shows up.

Auburn shoots threes and we don’t guard threes very well.

It is as simple as if they are hitting we are toast. If not we can win.

Big jersey night in Baton Rouge for the Ala game. I hope they are able to give them all away.

Yeah but you’re playing the top team in the conference

Games like this should make Beard want to leave

LSU could lead by 1 with five minutes left and lose by 7 or it could get blown out by 25 in the first half and lose by 30. Neither result would surprise me.
