Florida’s offense will destroy us in 2 weeks.

I don't think you really realize that Ohio State would be like 13th or 14th in the SEC. And they dog-walked Kentucky.

They lost to Auburn by 38
They lost to Texas A&M by 14 (fully healthy)

We shall see. But that Florida game just went from looking like “almost a gimme as long as we’re on” to looking like “a high-stakes nail-biting fight for our lives” real quick.

Both teams will prepare for the game . Florida will have two extra days because they play on 12/29 and we play on 12/31. They need to travel to Rupp. ESPN still has us favorites to win it by 59%.

The way Sec is this year, we need to be able to hold serve and win the home games. This one is a big one since would be a win over number 6 in the country.

Kentucky wins this one.

I am just hoping the fan’s situation will be solved so we can have a true home court advantage.

I remember when the 2013 team beat Florida at the very end of the season. They then went on to get crushed by Vandy in the first round.

The moral is that anything can happen in one game. There are no certainties.

lol it's one of those things.

We obsess about rankings and numbers and whatnot. At the end of the day, the averages are just that.........averages. You'll have games where we overperform those numbers and ranking and you'll have games where we underperform. Each game is just one specific instance. Anything can happen.

This is why what happened vs OSU has no bearing on this game. Also what happened vs Gonzaga and Duke also have no bearing either.

Bottom line is you just hope to learn about what works and what doesn't work and you continue to get better so you have the greastest possible chance in March.

This defense is pathetic. We have 2 good defenders. And the rest aren’t even decent. They are well below average. Florida game will get ugly. Pope is going to have to make this team a zone team and never play man to man in the sec. We won’t survive playing man to man in this league.

Sports dont work like that. A good team can look like a dumpster fire on any given week. You cant just decide if a team loses to a bad team that they are no good, lmao

Yeah and teams bounce back too. I know they played Valpo between the Auburn and Kentucky games but it was always likely they weren't going to have a repeat performance of that Auburn game.

That’s what I’ve been saying too. I wouldn’t be shocked if we win all our home games and lose almost all the road games. Shooting teams tend to be that way, by and large
To me the best case scenario is win all the home games, and find a way to get 2-3 on the road

There will not be a single SEC team this year go undefeated at home. I hope we lose only one!
Most likely right, but with this group they really do need to win the home games, because the road games I see them struggling a lot in

in the prediction thread people got on me because i wasn't putting them in the same tier as Auburn and UT.

Now people are saying we are the worst in the SEC? lol

Lets be honest. We are a team that will prob hover around .500 in the SEC and given the strength of the conference, that might not be all that bad.
Lots of truth here

I can't wait for this game to get here to see how we fare against KY. We have looked really good in a lot of games this season but a lot of the teams we played are not as good as they usually are.

Respect to your team and good luck with the rest of your season outside of the game vs UK in Rupp. I’m not going to lie to you —- I think you all are really good. Watched multiple games and you scare the daylights out of me. Still picking the Cats but I think Florida is one of the best 15 teams in the country for sure, may be a touch high atm but good luck

OP keeps on making himself look like a moron this season. First he said we couldn't hang with Duke. We won that and shut him up.

Then we lost to Clemson and he got giddy. By early 2nd half of Gonzaga he was orgasmic. Then we won the Gonzaga game.

Then the OSU game happened and he's been on a 2 week high. Now he got owned again.
