    We have a shot at the SEC tournament double bye. Tied for 5th with Kentucky at 8-4, just behind Auburn and South Carolina, both now at 9-4.

    Tough close for S. Carolina, last 5 games:
    @ OM, @ A&M, UF, Tennessee, @ Miss State. Could be 5 Q1 games.

    Give me Vandy x 2, Mizzou, and South Carolina, and we will be in great shape. Add a win over Bama at home? I don't even wanna think about it, haha.

    IMO a mediocre finish would put us at 11-7. A good finish 12-6. Great finish 13-5 or 14-4. All those besides 11-7 I think gets us a double bye judging by everyone else’s schedule.

    Next game is the most difficult by far. Huge that we got a W today and are on a three-game streak. After @Bama it's mostly downhill. 10-8 was the benchmark, but the Gatorboyz are at least one game ahead of schedule and 11-7 is now the expectation, could realistically be better.

    We shouldn’t be behind Auburn
    We have the head to head

    Oh I see - was looking at losses

    Florida does have the easier schedule, but that head to head with USC could very well be for the double bye.

    Our remaining schedule is weird in that we get 3 games against the bottom 2, and 2 games against #1 and then have to visit South Carolina who is with us for that double bye. Basically 3 games we should win and 3 where we are dogs.

    I have a feeling that the line @ USCe will be very low.
