Auburn lost to Florida at home. You just established you don't think Florida is a "tier 1" or elite team. You have to say that because we scalded their hides a few weeks ago. If you admit Florida is elite, then you'd have to admit we are elite.

So now you say Auburn doesn't lose to inferior teams, but that violates the precedent you set earlier about Florida.

You either don't understand how college basketball works or you're doing this on purpose.

Auburn has lost two games. They didn't get blown out at Vandy. They didn't get blown out at KY. Auburn has lost to perhaps two number 1 seeds. And, they beat the Vols.

You said, and I quote, they "don't lose to inferior teams."

But they did. Unless they didn't.

You're being categorically inconsistent to justify your unjustifiable take on this Vols team.

I don't consider either of their losses to be to inferior teams. Vandy and KY are inferior teams.

Florida is the only team that blew us out and we barely lost at Auburn. Still, Auburn is not unbeatable, wished they had to play at TBA. But, yes, Auburn should be #1 and should be the #1 seed. Vols are still a top 5 team, so what's your point ?

My point has always been consistency. The vols could beat anyone but could also lose to anyone. They have an opportunity with two weak teams left. Let's see if they can take advantage. That's my point.

You're being circular again. You already said you no longer consider Florida a Tier 1 team. By definition that makes Auburn's home loss to UF a loss to an inferior team.

You also said elite teams don't lose to inferior teams. If you've changed your mind about Florida being an elite team in the last 30 minutes, then how do you compartmentalize them getting blown out by an "inferior" team (Vols).

You're suffering from confirmation bias. By only highlighting the facts that support your beliefs and ignoring the ones that don't and building a whole construct around the idea that the Vols, a Top 5 team that are set to be a Top 4 team, are not elite.

It's lunacy

Who have they lost to that is so bad ? UK twice, for some reason, just a bad match-up for this team, hope the Vols miss 'em in the SEC Tourney. Still, UK is a NCAA Tourney 🔒, just like Vandy.
