Who are we going to beat to get six wins? (for kbmcgill and bullish)

I will be surprised if the Gators don’t win more than 6 conference games. That being said, the program is deteriorating while most other SEC men’s basketball programs are on the upswing. It’s time to move on from this coach.

 

You will get surprised.

We have two games against Georgia and Vandy. Not many more than seven games.

 

Why are you beating the drum in favor of keeping White if you think that the Gators will have a losing conference record. Do you think that the Gator basketball program cannot do better with someone else as the coach?

 

It's incredible to me that people on here think the SC or Vandy games are gimmes, especially on the road.

 

The more I watch our SEC competitors play the more worried I am.

SEC is loaded according to all the pundits.

I agree with GH5 - no gimmies.

 

I don’t think that any of these games are laughers. However, I still think that we are a 2nd-tier SEC team with a favorable SEC schedule.

 

Interesting. I'm worried about a total collapse. Pippen could easily drop a 40 spot on us when we play Vandy. S Carolina, as ugly as they play, could certainly beat us, just look, they have won an SEC game. Gonna get UGLY against LSU IMO.

 

I am not happy that Alabama, Auburn, Kentucky, LSU and Tennessee all look better than us, and we appear to be in a 2nd tier with Arkansas, Mississippi State and Texas A&M right now, but that still would get us to a .500 or so SEC record. I also don’t see anything on the horizon to indicate that we will move into the 1st-tier in future years.

 

9-7 from here on out in Conference? That would be great, but I'm skeptical.

 

Sadly, I'm hoping we finish .500 in league play. maybe we beat LSU but I put the odds of that at 25 - 33%.

0-3 start will be difficult to make up.

Edit: I forgot Ole Miss, so that's 10 wins

 

Why do you have us beating Auburn at home but then losing to Arkansas at home?

 

Hope your right Davis, I don't see UF winning all those "supposed to" games. True, we could upset teams to compensate for that but, until CMW has an answer for point guard production, turnovers, rebounding and poor 3 point shooting % ................ I have my doubts.

 

Maybe we can get the LSU game as they might be taking us for granted like our fan base

 

So all we have to do is win @ SC, AND @ Missouri, AND @ TAMU, AND Sweep Ole Miss, AND Sweep Vandy, AND Sweep UGA, AND beat Auburn! Now I wonder why in the world I was ever worried!!

 

Because it seems that often the Gators follow a quality win with a bad or unexpected loss.

 

The problem I see is that Auburn is going to get better and better as the season goes on. I do not see that happening with our team unless some of our bench guys improve enough to make a material difference to the team. I don’t see that happening.

 

I picked the Gators to win 11 games and you picked them to win 10, so I don't understand your joke. Heck, you had most of the games you are joking about here as wins.

 

I've seen pretty good improvement from Jitoboh and Felder (who should be starting, imo).
