If the SEC had Auburn instead of Georgia they would have won it this year. It's going to end up the same way as last year I predict with SEC leading 5-4 going into the Kentucky game. Last year we couldn't win it for the SEC probably same thing this year.

Ends tied 5-5 for 2nd straight year.

Cats are the conference flag bearer- gotta take care of business. We bang on the conference a lot here, but I think a fair amount of teams will hold up there end of the deal. USC was a disappointment. They blew it.

I do not remember at 20 games so many 13-16 win teams. Lots of "parody".

I know parity but here it is parody.

I'm watching the Arkansas vs Oklahoma State game at Arkansas and you could hear a pin drop. The Cowboys are out to a 7 to 0 lead, this is the kind of crap I can't stand. If the cats were playing the roof would be coming down and it would be 7 to 0 Razorbacks, more proof SEC teams don't play hard except when Kentucky comes to town.

Is A&M the biggest disappointment this season
I thought they were a final 4 team before the season . Hell in December they looked like they were and then they had suspensions and injuries and they never recovered the mojo. Hurts the SEC as we could of gotten 9-10 teams in the dance with them. UGA is another team that should be a tourney team but they always drop the soap .

Pretty loud now.

I don't but into the "sec teams don't play hard except for uk" argument. Certainly there is greater buzz in the arena and teams feed off that when uk arrives. But not play hard"? Nah. I don't subscribe to that theory.

Greater buzz gets teams playing harder, seen it to many times over the years. That's why the SEC teams disappoint in the NCAA tournament more often than not.

Sec teams disappoint in tourney bc aside from Cats and Gators--- they haven't been good.
I think any big time home game will bring that extra juice. And UK is always a big time home game. I guess I just didn't agree with the wording that the teams otherwise don't "try hard". Anyway, I get your point.
But today, conference deserves some credit. Cats very well may have chance to clinch sec victory tonite. At worst--- win for the tie.

Exactly, that is an argument for the weak minded excuse makers.

TCU had 0 FT attempts

Crazy game, if you had watched, you'd understand why. Both teams made a ton of shots, both are finesse teams and when TCU drove, they scored uncontested buckets. There certainly weren't many missed calls, just how the game went.
