College Hoops Around The Country [TN opponents, RPI, others]

20-3 overall and 7-3 in the SEC is not fraudulent.

TN is the hottest team in the league right now in my opinion, you’d think they were pulling for Auburn to lose, no?

I said * may be, I made that post when they were down almost 10 to start the game. At that point they hadn't impressed me much. This win is more impressive, but they've had a pretty easy schedule this year.

I celebrate any Auburn loss now.

Me too brocephus

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

Auburn has some tough games down the stretch. So do we. Let's see what happens. If we can maintain 4 in the loss column, the regular season race could come down to the last week

 

[BreatheUT]

Hell nah....not with us winning twice this week.
Our beat down of them is fresher in voters minds, too.

And what difference does it make with 8 games still left to play anyway.

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

Now we just need Calipari to smack Oats around and this will have been a pretty good day.

 

[walkenvol]

Gonna be a tough game to win there. But I got faith

Wonder if Buzz will still campaign for the UT job when Barnes retires?

 

[walkenvol]

I'm annoyed that they're probably going to flip us with Florida in the rankings after this.

Nope

I don't reckon it makes much of a difference in terms of March at all. I never said it did. Basically just bragging rights for the week, but it's something to talk about. I mean if nothing is of major importance until the tournaments then why even have the boards up an running until then?
Let's just shut them down and all meet back up here when tournaments start. lol

 

[Jravol78]

Saw that. Auburn fans too busy booing because they’re so used to getting a call when one of their players hits the deck to notice

Auburn basketball fans also boo because they don’t know ball

I wasn't really referring to you but the other poster making the point.

Plenty. Especially in regards to our confidence

That, and stats. Like when they say " X amount of wins against top 5 teams" and whatnot.
I mean it would matter more if it was for 5-6 or someone fighting for say 10-11.

What's with Auburn and the tiny visitors locker room?

SEC tourney is going to go a long way to determining seeds

I doubt it. Maybe for those on the bubble but the committee has shown time and time again that it doesn’t have a ton of their decisions

Dick Vitale " 2 best defensive teams are Duke and Houston".... Cmon Dick. You know better.

I agree on past history, but this year with the SEC being so tough and close it might this year.

 

[hUTch2002]

We are not going to catch Bama. We are now playing for a Top 4 seed in SEC tourney. We need Bama to beat other teams to help us.

Nah, just need to win the games in front of us. Maybe we won’t win the SEC regular season but a double bye and 1 seed in the dance are in our control.

I may be wrong and things may not be so bunched up by season’s end, but they are going to have to figure out how to separate Tennessee, Florida, Alabama, Kentucky, A&M, etc., and the tourney may be the only way to do it

My dad (Auburn fan) was complaining about a foul on CBM due to the Florida guy flopping. I said come on now, CBM is the king of flop and right on cue CBM flopped and got a foul called. It was priceless.

 

[hUTch2002]

We beat Florida with 2 of our best 3 players out

You know, we might be an ok team after all. But still, Barnes sucks and needs to retire. Bring back Bruce!

I love it! It's even better with a tiny Sativa puff to boot!

Coasting to retirement
