I think losses @UT, @ Ole Miss, @ Bama and vs. Auburn. Also one we shouldn't drop. At Missouri is going to be a really tough game. If we win Saturday, which is a decent sized if, I think 9-5 the rest of the way. IMO that would be good for a 2/3 seed the way the losses would be spread out. Also it would not be shocking to go 8-6 rest of the way but I think we are getting much better at defending and rebounding so that should help.

Realistically, hard to see the Cats doing better than 9-5 in that stretch, which would be 12-6 in the SEC and maybe good enough for a Top Four Seed. That'd be 23-8 for the regular season, and considering the schedule, a Solid A for Mark Pope's first year.

I think that would set the Cats up for a decent March, and maybe beyond.

Initial gut reaction is 9-5 feels pretty safe.

I think we lose 1 game to Alabama
I think we lose 1 game to UT
@Ole Miss will be really difficult, think they'll be favored
Auburn if full strength will be really tough. It helps that it's in Rupp. I would guess we drop 1 of these tough home games at Rupp. Hard to bet against the best team in the country.
@Mizzou is going to be really challenging too. They've knocked off some good teams and it's on the road.

Oklahoma will be a tough game, but I think we pull that out.

Arkansas, Texas, Vanderbilt x 2, LSU I think we win.

So most expect 9-5 with the remaining conference games. We say we expect to lose 5 games but it seems like RR always blows up with fans finding fault with certain players, the coach or the team as a whole after even one loss.

I got 9-5 and I’d be extremely satisfied with that, I always worry about one of those outliers we could lose but we could also snag an extra if we’re hitting on all cylinders. Either way, this is the most enjoyable season I’ve experienced in quite a while.

9-5 but that is if we win most games where we would either have home court or be favored (my exception was Missouri).

It didn't work that way with Georgia -- super hard to guess, honestly.

9-5, 10-4 if we can win one of the bigger games. Slip up and lose 2/3 @ Vandy, @ Oklahoma, and @ Texas, 8-6. So 8-6 is the floor, 10-4 is the really tough to achieve ceiling. If we can finish 12-6 in the SEC / 23-8 overall, we will be a solid 2/3 seed IMO. Before the year I predicted 22-9 ish, so we are tracking that #.

6 ranked games. I have to believe that the most likely scenario is that we lose 2. I also suspect we will lose 2 more unranked games, likely road games, where the opponent shoots 37 free throws.. and that just isn't something we can overcome (No team can, really).

I'm gonna say 4, maybe 5 more losses. 6 losses or less and honestly, I'm fine with it.

Split with Alabama and Tennessee, sweep Vandy, possibly lose to Auburn, drop one to Ole Miss. Probably 10-4

Fun to project. As long as Pope and the team is only worrying about BAMA.

I will say 12-2. We win all at home, we lose to Ole Miss on the road and Bama on the road. Beat UT 2 times, Beat Auburn and such.

Yeah I know, way too optimistic. Well it is just for fun. Finish the regular season 26-5. Win 9 in post season and finish 35 - 5 number 9 is feeling fine.

Have no idea but hope we win Saturday!!!

I predicted 24+ wins earlier this season. So, I’m going 10-4 or better.

7-7 the rest of the way.

Losses @ Tennessee, Alabama, Ole Miss, and two of Missouri, Texas, OU, and Vandy.

Wins at Rupp vs. Vandy, LSU, Arkansas, South Carolina and one of Bama/Tennessee.

Wins on the road in 2 of the 4 games vs. Missouri, Texas, OU, and Vandy.

Losses at Rupp vs. Auburn and one of Bama and Tennessee.

10-8 at best.

9-9 would be realistic.

8 to 9 wins.
The way the conference is this year it could well be anything.
Only thing I’m pretty sure of with this group of guys getting close to the end of their college runs is it’s gonna be competitive.

I expect us to win one we probably shouldn't and lose one we probably shouldn't. 3-4 losses through the rest of conference. Coach has us trending the right direction while other teams have peaked and begun to decline. Regardless this team ranks up there with the 2002 and 2012 teams on my favorites list. Might even be the top team just for what they represent and the heart they've shown.

We need to improve in a few areas, defense, rebounding and free throws, but we also need Brea to get back on track from the outside and we need Oweh to hit at a better clip from out there too.
If we get road refs like we had at UGA, we're not winning, it's as simple as that, so we have to take that into account.

I think we lose 5 on the way out, but the way we are trending, it could just be 3.

Click to expand...
Brea has a lot of pressure on him because for a while he was the only one hitting 3s at a high clip
Teams have focused on him defensively
Jaxon stepping up and hitting, and Almanor off the bench will help free Brea up

14-0 BABY..... Seriously probably 11-3 0r 10-4. I'd say we lose @ Tennessee , @ Bama, @Ole miss, and if we happen to lose another 1 it might be the home game to Auburn.
