15-5 currently

Wins :
Arkansas
SC
Vandy
LSU

Likely losses :
UT (Splitting the season has been common) / revenge
@ Bama (COULD win, but bad matchup wise)
Auburn - They just keep winning, home / away doesn't matter.

Toss Ups : (hell they all are with the exception of LSU / SC. All road games, tough going OTR in the SEC, and really physical / tough teams
@ Miss. State
@ Texas
@ Oklahoma
@ Mizzou
I predict we split the 4 road games tabbed as "toss ups" and finish 21-10 / 10-8 in the SEC. Split the UT / Auburn at home, 11-7.

I said a few days ago 7.6-4.4.
Subtracting the UT game would drop that to 7.25-3.85, although that was before knew Butler will miss games, so it's probably more like 6.75-4.25 (rounded to 7-4). Wow, which comes out to the 11-7 I predicted a month ago.

Auburn - 6-0 - finish 13-5 or 12-4
Bama - 6-1 - finish 13-5
Florida - 5-2 - finish 11-7 / 12-6
Mizzou - 5-2 - finish 10-8
UK - 4-3 - finish 10-8
Tenn. - 4-4 - finish 9-7 / 10-8
Ole Miss - 4-3 - finish 10-8
Texas A&M - 5-3 - finish 10-8
Miss. State - 4-3 - finish 9-9
Vandy - 4-3 - finish 8-10 maybe 9-9
Texas - 3-4 - finish 8-10
Georgia - 3-5 - finish 8-10
Oklahoma - 2-5 - finish 7-11
Arkansas - 1-6 - finish 6-12
LSU - 1-5 - finish 4-14
SC - 0-8 - finish 3-15

UK @ Mizzou could be the tiebreaker for 4th place, top 4 seed. But we have to win some tough ones, and win MOST at home. Can afford to lose one of UT / Auburn at home, but not both. Split those 2, 4th place is in reach. Really, really need to win @ Oklahoma and @ Texas.

I don't see us losing 2 more games in Rupp. Bama had to play nearly perfect, and I mean PERFECT, and we didn't play exceptionally well, and they barely edged us out.

I think at MOST, we lose 1 more in Rupp, but I think we actually finish the home slate unbeaten down the stretch.

Then, I think we beat @Tex and @OU, finish the slate 12-6.

I’m going to be a little pessimistic and say 5-6, which puts us at 9-9 in the SEC.

While last night’s win was encouraging, we are really banged up and that has a tendency to catch up to you after a while.

This, brother! We beat Auburn’s *** at Rupp AND we beat Tennessee again! I’ll go 11-7 at worst.

Tampa Cat, I hope you are right, I am wrong, but I do not see us only losing 3/4 more games. It will take an exceptional effort to accomplish that, SEC is TOUGH. But how do you figure Bama played NEARLY perfect and we didn't play well ? We had 7 players score in double figures.
Bama : 30/67 (45%) / 13/34 (38% 3FG) / 29/34 (85% FT) / 9 TO's
UK : 35/73 (48%) / 11/27 (41% 3FG) / 16/20 (80% FT) / only 8 TO's.
We shot the ball better, less turnovers, rebounding was fairly even 36/35 in favor of Bama. UK had 6 steals to 3 for Bama, UK had 8 blocks to 3 for Bama. UK won pretty much every statistical category, FT difference was fouling at the end. To say they played PERFECT and UK didn't play exceptionally well is simply not true. UK gave them their best shot, and came up short. I am just stating facts, I wish UK could have pulled that one out, but the 10-0 run after the score was tied at 81 was costly. And it was at Rupp, what do you think would have happened at Bama ??? We won at UT, but they shot the ball terribly so we escaped with the W. UT was 25/72 (35%) and 11/45 (24% 3FG). It took an exceptional shooting night 50% from 2/3 FG to win. I understand we had 2 starters out, but we can't keep depending on great shooting nights to pull it out. We have to quit giving up offensive rebounds. It UK can clean that up, even on a less than great shooting night, they can compete and beat the elite teams, but if they don't, living on great shooting nights will cost us some games. Just looking at it with prospective and glass half empty view.

If the Vats can go 10-8 in the SEC as tough as this conference I would be thrilled.

4-3 currently, all it would take is finish 6-5, not some crazy 9-2 / 8-3 finish is needed. 10-8 is VERY obtainable, 11-7 as others are predicting, is not crazy thinking.

Will continue to just go game by game right now. Would not surprise me if Jaxon is on injury report for Arkansas. I think Carr is back vs Arky. Hopefully butler as well.

After yesterday's win at Tennessee, I have noticed a lot of the doom and gloom posters not replying to this thread. I wonder why.

I thought 11-7 in SEC before conference play began. I’ll stick with it. 22-9 record, going into SECT and NCAAT.

UK is a really bad matchup for Tennessee..in fact, UK, Alabama, Florida, Missouri and Ole Miss are awful matchups for Tennessee. They just cant score enough points.

I just don't see UT winning in Rupp, but this team is so Jekyll-and-Hyde. They are impossible to predict, especially with the injuries, but I'm going to go 12-6.
