I appreciate your positivity, but our tournament hopes died yesterday. That was the L that will keep us out.

You are completely wrong. A 1 point loss to a top 25 team is not going to knock us out of the tournament. If we win 2 of the cake walks at the end of the season and 1 or 2 in the SECT, we will be dancing.

we have 2 quality wins and ZERO bad losses. After yesterday, we are still 34 NET

Your statement contradicts your own statement. We aren’t in the tournament right now, so technically the loss last night did hurt us. For you to say we will be dancing IF this and IF that shows that you know our chances are very slim.

We are in the tournament right now…I’m anticipating some losses coming up. That’s the IF. IF the season ended today, we would be in….why is it so hard for you Downer Dawgs to understand.

prior to yesterday we were in the tourney according to like 90% of bracket predictors.

of course any loss doesn't help. our problem is we have several games wehre the game itself doesn't hurt but piling those up does. No committee member, or anyone at all, is going to not put is in the tourney for losing to a ranked team by 1 possession.

I haven't seen a soul argue that our chances are a lock. Most people acknowledge that we are solidly on the bubble but we've got to hold serve on these remaining home games. A game or two in the SECT would be great too.

You missed my point. Last night’s game by itself isn’t going to keep us out, but I’m betting it was the tipping point of enough L’s that have piled up.

Vandy within 2 of Auburn at home at halftime, Kentucky handling Tennessee at home at halftime, Miss State leading Florida at home at halftime….

We have 2 losses at home, 2 points to #1 Auburn and 1 point to #22 Ms State.

We suuuuuuuck!!!! If we lose tonight by 20, you will all lose your shite and think we are out of the tourney even more than Saturday

Let’s go Dawgs!

I guess we will see how it shakes out. Winning one of these road games would be huge.

Slipped from last four byes to last 4 in per Lunardi

Gonna be a very physical game. That’s both our strengths, defense and offensive boards. Sucks our depth is lacking with Lawrence out with hammy and Leffew rolling his ankle in practice last night.

5 points in the first five minutes.

Still can't hit an open three.

Aggies struggling too

Cain hit a couple back to back shots.

.then we couldn't get a board. Aggies get like 10 straight offensive boards. Ball has been with Aggies like 10 minutes

Newell just grabbed his 2nd foul…not good

This might be a long night, but not indicative of the rest of the season.

Keep in mind, we are on the road against the #8 team in the country who is really hot. We are without Leffew and Lawrence and now Asa in foul trouble early.

Aggies just as, if not more, physical than us on the offensive boards. I think they lead the entire country in offensive boards

Cain hits another 3 15-11 dawgs
