I’m wondering if he thought too big a jump for 1 game , and we’ll really see the fruits of this win - provided we hold serve- as the season progresses
Yes. FL is a tournament team at this moment. He had us out as a 5-3 SEC team after 4-straight conf victories, including at Rupp.
Agree. I don't pay attention to the guy. But make no mistake, after the SEC teams beat up on each other for the next two months the tournament committee is not going to put 9 SEC teams into the big dance like everybody keeps saying. If we win anything more than half of our remaining games we should be in no problem, especially if we win a couple of SEC tourney games.
Is the definition of a moron on this board is someone who disagrees with you? He makes a lot of money doing what he does. He makes more than me by a long shot. But I don't really care because his opinion carries no weight with the committee.
No, the definition of a moron on this board is... Joe Lunardi. Not sure how to make that any clearer. And lots of morons out there make lots more money than I do. They're still morons.
Right now it appears Ole miss Miss state Texas A&M UF Are all in accordingly to bracketology. I would guess only 2 of those teams make it, maybe only 1 when it's all said and done. Miss state is 3-6 in the conference and ole miss had such a poor non conference schedule they still need some quality wins. I'm not an expert, but my gut tells me Bama, Auburn, Tennessee, UK, usce, and 1 of the above 4 make it for a total of 6 teams.
We still have Mizzou at home (currently winless) and Vandy home-and-away (their one win was against Mizzou at home) so I like our chances in these three games. Certainly not a done deal. Home-and-home against Bama is TOUGH. Winning one would be great. I would take that in a heart beat. Auburn at home is a big ask but not impossible. LSU at home we should be favored. Georgia on the road is a coin flip. And USCe on the road should have a slight edge to the Cocks. Going 2-2 over these games is likely. So 10-8 is very likely and should be enough to get a bid. Lot of work to do, though.
We have played eight Q1 games after playing TA&M and are only 1-7. I know most of them were close but do not think that helps much. We currently have four more Q1 games and need to win them to make a statement. Florida - NET Rankings and Quad Wins
My point was that we have played a more robust collection of Q1 games than the teams listed. Heck, our Q1 win % is better than #16 Auburn's. You are right, though, that we could use some wins.
I'm worried about it as well, that A&M game would have been a huge win. I still think we have a better than 60% chance of making it today. I like the spot against Auburn Saturday. We need to keep winning the games against the teams we are favored against (mizz, uga, vandy twice, and LSU) mix in an upset against Bama or USCe and we have a good argument. I know miss state beat Tennessee and Auburn but they're 3-6 in the conference. They still have @auburn UK @A&M ole miss and usce left on their schedule and just don't see how they get above 500 in conference play. If ole miss doesn't finish strong I think they could be the team with a sexy overall record but not make it. They have a pretty tough stretch coming up in the next couple of weeks. A&M beat us last weekend, but I don't think they're a better team than we are. Two games against Tennessee Bama and UK left for them. So I guess when it's all said and done...it's too early to call it haha
