What a win!!!!

That baseline ref needs to be investigated...either he's batsh*t blind or he was throwing the game.

And we don't have to see all the dumb threads started by the Pearl worshippers and trolls.

Me too. That may be the most enjoyable win in my memory simply because of who we beat. Auburn is a great team. And one of the whiniest and biggest showboating teams I’ve ever seen.

Fantastic team win again, the free throw shooting was exactly where it needs to be this time of year. Auburn is very good, but one of the least enjoyable teams to watch I can ever remember. The endless whining to refs and mouthing off just gets really tired, they are just as classless as their coach.

Pearl trying to claim in presser that Barnes and himself have great cultures. He’s something else. His team whines more than any other, maybe ever.
 
What's up with this D-bag Lanardi's obsession with having Arkansas as a potential second round match-up with us in the tourney?

No way, we see an SEC team that early in the tourney, right?

I’m excited for the game tomorrow, but not as excited as I should be knowing that it’s kind of a pointless exercise. Tennessee deserves a 1-seed if they win, but they aren’t getting it. Just hope we stay healthy.

I was listening and my head exploded. Just proving that what was said on this board all along was true, that this tournament doesn’t matter and is a pointless exercise. Zero value in playing the games. He clearly was told this by the committee otherwise he wouldn’t be flip flopping as much as he has.

It just turns out that the committee was never serious about Tennessee when they said “whoever advances the farthest”.
This is why it's so important that Tennessee wins, to show the absurdity of it all yet again. If the committee doesn't give a 1 to a team thats on the brink of being on the 1ine after beating 2projected 1 seeds back to back, then they lose credibility forever. Either these games matter, or they don't. If you don't reward a team for beating 2 top 5 teams in 2 days just because the timing isn't convenient, then blow it all up.

It's even more absurd now to me because we beat Alabama in the game hyped all game as an "elimnation game" for the #1 seed yet after that game and we lost to Ole Miss it was like we were forgotten. Alabama wins at Auburn and that jumps them back up there but now nothing we can do will move us to #1.

Like now if we had even won at Ole Miss would we be a #1? I'm not even sure.

Lots of lazy, overpaid people on the committee who can’t be bothered to adapt a bracket to results from earlier in the day. Heaven forbid they work one Sunday for a few hours.
