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

Won’t be if they lose a 5th, but agree as of where we are right now.

We sadly blew it a bit. Can’t lose at Vandy, at Ole Miss and vs Kentucky. We had full control of that 1st 1 seed.

They were ahead of us before we lost to Ole Miss. Losing at Baylor won't be any worse of a loss. Just don't think it matters. Maybe if they get upset in their first Big XII tourney game. But them having a fringe Q2 loss isn't damaging I don't believe.

Pathetic that players guarding the three point shooter have no clue to box out the three point shooter rather than standing and watching

Sears cold blooded

 

[FlVols]

Damn Auburn. You losers!!

 

[kckempf]

Especially Baylor with Houston now having a Quad 2 loss.

I doubt anybody is going to drop Houston after a different team lost. Even with a quad 2 loss they're #3 in NET, #3 in Kenpom, and 9-0 on the road. Maybe if they lose to Baylor they drop but not even that would guarantee it.

Pearls epic March choke jobs screwing the Vols continues

 

[VolCalls]

Welp - next week in Nashville could be interesting.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Nobody said it will. The committee will certainly give it credence since it will tie Florida for the biggest road win in college hoops this season.

Um yeah they did, what do you think I’m replying to?

 

[GBO18]

Horrible end game defense.

 

[All Vol!]

Flagg would be good in the SEC too.

But he isn’t. That’s why I think comparisons between he and broom are hard to make.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Sears wins it at the buzzer. 4-seed it is.

Auburn fans throwing stuff on the floor.

 

[JCP201]

Welp, I guess we are number 4 in the top bracket.

 

[hUTch2002]

We’re a 2. I really thought 6 losses would end up a 1 seed but I was wrong.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Was this Auburn’s senior night?

 

[cncchris33]

Way to cost your team...again...Faker-Bizzaro

Auburn just loss to A & M. That's a big win for Alabama but the have lost 2 of their last 3.

 

[SGMVols]

Nate Oates looks about 5 years younger than Rick Barnes. I don’t know their age difference, but can’t understand why some people think we’re going to hire another old guy to replace the best coach we’ve had.

It’s insane for anyone to think he’s going to walk away from what he’s built at Bama anytime soon, especially for their 2nd biggest rival.

 

[kckempf]

Why would Bama jump us?
We got the head to head just two games back?

They move above us in Q-1 wins and even further ahead in Q-1 + Q-2 wins, tied now with Florida for best road win. Not that I think they should go above us, but the committee has cover.

 

[Other_Guy]

Did auburn peak too early?

 

[Delmar]

Sears is clutch. Auburn should have done everything they could to deny him the ball but didn’t do it. It cost them.

 

[cncchris33]

It was hard to imagine the SEC being this crazy good. I'm with you. If you told me we'd go 25-6, I'd have been certain we got a 1.

 

[Chaz-Vol]

That one will sting Auburn

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Did auburn peak too early?

Hopefully.

Pearl’s best teams usually underachieve in the postseason. His best runs have been with under the radar teams.

They could certainly drop with a losss to Baylor and a bad tournament performance.
None of the SEC teams fighting for that spot have a quad 2 loss and Tennessee could pick up more Quad 1 wins in the SEC tournament.
