Big week coming up in the SEC West...

Coach34 · Feb 18, 2010

UPig- 7-4....@Auburn, @LSU- Auburn probably gets them, but LSU won't.....8-5 most likely with big games ahead in Vandy and Tenn

State- 6-5...@LSU, Bammer....Bammer plays good D, but we'll take it....8-5 most likely with two road games dead ahead

Mississippi- Vandy, Fla, Auburn...these 3 games determine Mississippi's season...cant see them winning all 3, and maybe losing 2....????????

good week of basketball ahead

I don't like Ole Miss's chances. But watch them finish 3rd in the West and get a NCAA at large bid. It would not surprise me.

RebelBruiser · Feb 18, 2010

For us, we have to win at least 2 to stay alive, and I think we really need a 3 game sweep for our NCAA hopes, which I don't think we get. With this team, we'll probably beat Vandy and Florida before losing to Auburn. We make no sense.

It would not shock me in the slightest for us to lose to LSU this Saturday, wreck our RPI, then win out and end up in the NIT because we lost to worst team in the SEC.

patdog · Feb 18, 2010

We'll get the #1 seed, Ark the #2 and UM the #3 seed in the SEC tournament.</p>

Yea, I posted on Nafoom the other day that between Ole Miss and MSU, only one SEC game has been decided by more than 10 points, your 16 point win over LSU. That tells me we both play up or down to our competition. If you play with the energy you did against Kentucky, you'll beat LSU by 20. However, I expect you to end up having to hit free throws late to win by 8 or 9. That's just the nature I guess. I fully expect us to lose to one out of Auburn or LSU at home down the stretch, because we'll just not show up for one of them.

Coach34 · Feb 18, 2010

UPig and us will both sweep Mississippi and LSU
We both will have split with Bammer and Auburn
We split H2H

Whats the next tiebreaker after H2H and record vs West?

patdog · Feb 18, 2010

And I agree it's more likely than not that they will, but I wouldn't go so far as to say they will sweep them. If UM does beat Ark, then we would get the #1 seed. If not, all I know is that UM would be #3. No idea who'd be #1 and #2.

whatever.sixpack · Feb 18, 2010

If we could've just held on or gotten one more play to go our way in the last two minutes vs Arky and UK, then we'd be 8-3 and we'd run away with it. That would've put our conference record at 10-6 at the very worst, with 12-4 a possibility. 12-4 would've almost certainly gotten us into the NCAA's, and I'd feel pretty good at 11-5 w/ a decent showing in the SECT.

Oh well, we can talk about if's all day... But those were two games we should've won without question.

patdog · Feb 18, 2010

Seriously, they might go 0-16. They may be the worst SEC team I've ever seen, and I saw Boyd's last team and Williams's first team.

RebelBruiser · Feb 18, 2010

And has a defending SEC champion ever gone 0 for the season in conference play? I'm betting the first has happened, but the second has probably never happened.

bonedaddy401 · Feb 18, 2010

catch us after back to back OT games and get a U Pig team that is veryunpredictable. Just sayin.......

patdog · Feb 18, 2010

then went 2-14 in 2001. They almost did it again in 2006-2007, winning the title at 14-2 in 2006 and finishing 1 game out of last place at 5-11 in 2007. As for 0 conference wins, no team has won less than 2 SEC games since Bama went 1-17 in 1969. No team has gone winless since GA Tech went 0-14 in 1954.

Since the chick came back, they are very predictable- they are pretty good. 7-4, leading the West...5-1 in their last 6 games

RebelBruiser · Feb 18, 2010

Given our basketball "tradition" I'm surprised we aren't on the list for having a 1 or 0 win conference slate in that time. Somehow, especially based on the way LSU played Vandy, I think they'll find a way to win 1, maybe even 2 SEC games the rest of the way. I don't know who it will be.

This is their remaining slate:

MSU
Arkansas
@Auburn
@Ole Miss
Georgia

It's hard to pick one out, but I have to think they'll avoid 0-16. If not, that'll be pretty amazing to see a team go from 13-3 to 0-16, especially with a talent like Tasmin Mitchell on the team.

bonedaddy401 · Feb 18, 2010

I don't think anyone would have predicted this kind of turn around so yes they areunpredictableto a degree.

patdog · Feb 18, 2010

dawgstudent, MrMeoff, fishwater and me. One kind of sobering thing I saw as I was looking at the old records was the 1944 season. This was the entire SEC basketball standings that year:

Tulane - 4-0
GA Tech - 2-0
Georgia - 0-2
LSU - 0-4
Kentucky and Vandy also fielded teams but didn't play any SEC games. The other 6 schools didn't even field teams.

Those of us who didn't live through WWII really can't have any clue what things were like then.

Coach34 · Feb 18, 2010

can tend to make you kind of ******. I cant even imagine where we would be had Bost sat the first 14 games and Beckham had been our PG during that stretch

jbulldog · Feb 18, 2010

we finish 10-6, win the west, win two games in the tourney and make the NCAA as a 10 seed. Wins will be at LSU, at SC, and at home against AL, TN. Loss will be at Auburn.

KurtRambis4 · Feb 18, 2010

all last year, and they still sucked...

Coach34 · Feb 18, 2010

were replacing all 5 starters and started 3 true freshman in being one of the youngest teams in the nation last season- it happens. It appears now that they have all 5 starters on the floor, they have really improved even with still being a young team.

Because as we all know, teams with 5 starters returning are supposed to be better than the year before.

I'm sure we would've improved too if we had gone 2-15 in conference play. They still suck, no way we would've lost as many games as they did to the people they lost to if we would've been without Bost. Hell, we almost beat UK without Ravern and Varnado.

Big week coming up in the SEC West...
