Do you guys really believe if we had beaten auburn their fans would be crying over the lose like some on this board? Puck auburn glad they lost.

1000x this. I don’t understand the SEC mentality. People always make the claim that it, “makes the conference look better”. I’m sorry, would Auburn winning a championship suddenly end the media’s love affair with the ACC? No, it wouldn’t. Would Auburn winning the championship suddenly make an SEC title next year mean more nationally for us to win it? No, it wouldn’t.

If Florida winning back to back doesn’t even make a dent in respect for the SEC, nothing will. So screw the rest of the conference.

Where are you conpiracy theorists? They let all kinds of physical contact go all game, THEN a non-consequential brush that had no bearing on the shot gets called. John Thompson called it ridiculous on the radio, then backed off when Kellog tried ro justify it. Lame.

Why would a man worry about how other teams fans would react to his team losing? So, if Auburn fans were to be a$$e$...it's ok for you to be an a$$ as well? [eyeroll]

A lot of people on here thought Virginia would beat Auburn bad, I never thought that. The way they had been playing lately I thought they could beat anybody. You don't beat the last three teams they beat and then get blown out. I've seen way to many games to know that, Auburn should have won this game, even without their best player. Mental break downs in the last few seconds will cost you big time, they found that out.

I'm glad they lost fouling the 3 pt shooter at the end, just they way they advanced in their first game. The no-call on the double dribble was icing on the cake. They got hot and went on a run, and we'd have never heard the end of it if they'd finished it. It's still going to be bad enough because Bruce will still pretend he won the 'ship.

Didn't watch, but glad they lost. Had Auburn won wouldn't have benefited UK in the least. It would only have helped Bruce Pearl on the recruiting trail.

Yep. Glad Auburn lost and glad they lost the way they did. Pearl doesn’t deserve any more exposure.

I'm glad they lost like that. Idc what anyone days, but in a fairly officiated game, we would have beat Auburn in that game 10/10 times.

Yes we played bad and missed FTs, but they flopped the whole game and hacked us constantly with no call. Glad to see liar Pearl going home.

It works in Fball bowl games and thats about it. Talley the conference records, NCAAB is a single victor tournament. Nobody cares about how many S16 teams your conference has next year.

It is what it is, but Auburn was clearly a legitimately good team. They were ranked top 10 earlier in the year before hitting a rough stretch and dropping. But after beating KU, UNC, UK, and being seconds away from beating Virginia, I think it’s safe to say they were better than a 5 seed.

Between the lying cheating coach and the moronic obnoxious fans, they needed to lose and it was satisfying watching them shoot their own foot off. Denim Pest will be popping a pimple in mourning in his lonely dorm tonight.

Funny thing is, probably was all fake anyway. It’ll very possibly get stripped.

This ^^ a hundred million. Auburn fans are giving Tennessee fans a run for their money as the worst fans on the planet. They’ve got 5-6 posters that took stupid to a new level. Hope they go back to the cellar where they belong.

I wasn't saying I wanted Auburn to win. I just thought that Virginia would do what we didn't and take the f-ing ball inside. I thought Virginia would win going away. So, I apologized for my prediction.

I had Virginia winning the National Championship before the tourney started along with Michigan State in the Final Four. But, had State in the final game and got that wrong now. Oh well Warren Buffet isn't going to send me the payout.

AUB now you can see what it feels like to get screwed by refs in an important game and why it drives us crazy. Unfortunately, we are used to it.

Free throws decided this game just like ours. One team made them and moved on, one didn’t and is going home. Just like us.
Free throws matter!!!!!!!
I always said that free throws were going to be the death for us. Some of these young players just does not realize how important free throws are.
