i think 8-5 the rest of the SEC Regular season is attainable which would have us 20-10 & 11-7 in conference going into the SEC Tournament.

You're more confident that me. I feel good about 6.

how do you see the Howland Hounds finishing? I think 20+ wins are imminent
View attachment 5950

We played with Kentucky yes, but their big man Adeboyo or whatever was basically out the whole game.

I think USCe (twice), UF, @Bama, @UGA and @Aub will be tough.

We need to win one of two against USCe and win at home vs UF for to consider that successful. I just feel we match up bad with Bama and UGA seems to have our number lately.

TN(twice), Mizz, Ole Miss (twice), @ Vandy and LSU puts us at 19 wins...2 of 6 from our tougher games would put us at 21 assuming we win all of our should win games, which we probably won't.

20 wins would be great. I feel like that'll be our ceiling regular season.

Trying not to get too woolish this year and save it for next.

Auburn is a VERY winnable game

I'm going 6-7. The only road win being Auburn and home loss to UF.

They are all winnable. I'm just saying we'll slip up somewhere

Auburn is a VERY winnable game

especially on the road. Auburn has had an infusion of talent. I honestly haven't watched them play one second this year, however. Just seen a few highlights.

I think we have a CHANCE at winning any of them except Georgia. We seem to always have a problem with them no matter what the records of either team is.

The biggest variable is the mindset of our youngsters. If they continue the team play, defensive improvement and scoring more in the paint, then the sky is the limit.

I'm more worried about their heads after the Kentucky game going into Tenn.

One game at a time.

Looks like Big Blue Hangover is real.

Tennessee is 40-50 spots higher than us in KenPom and RPI, and about 15-20 in Sagarin. They're not great but they have road wins at A&M and Vandy so they are not terrible either. They were 4.5 point favorites over the youngest team in the conference and won the game going away. Did we play well? Of course not, but Big Blue Hangover? Please.
