I dont feel good about beating any of the top 4 seeds, other than maybe UT.

I dont see the benefit of getting beat up 3 gamed n 3 days or 4 in 4 anyways. We are probably a 3 n ncaa anyways.
Because the SECT matters. You do your best to win it regardless.

Final on Sunday result never matters. NCAA bracket already completed

I understand that in most years, this year is VERY different. If say a team from Wednesday makes a miracle run and they don't get a boost from winning the hardest tournament in America, well, the committee should just quit.

Why are we above Ole Miss? Same conference record, but they beat us head to head ...

Sucks that Bama is the 3 and Tennessee is the 4

Bama 0-2
Tenn 2-0

Had Auburn beat Alabama Tennessee would been our 3 we matchup much better vs them

So rooting against Auburn once again might bite us

It was going to be Murders Row however the seeding worked out. Beating Alabama, Florida, and Auburn three days in a row would take a monumental effort.
One thing I like is that it always seems like a team that plays the first game or two always looks sharper and upsets one of the double bye teams. It’s like they get used to the venue and play better while the other team gets a little rusty.

We should have earned our 3 seed already.

Played 19 of 31 games against Q1 competition. 10-9 in Q1 games. 7-7 in Q1A.

Winning record over the likely 1 seeds at 2-1 (beat Duke and UF and lost to Auburn).

5-3 against the 1 and 2 seeds at the SC Reveal (Auburn, Duke, UF, UT, Bama, and A&M).

We were the second 3 seed at the Reveal and we have done nothing to hurt ourselves. Added two Q1 wins, a Q2, and a Q3. Losses were all Q1 losses.

The other 3 seeds have all slipped. Iowa St., Wisconsin, and Zona all have worse losses than we have had.

We are pretty safe on the 3 line, despite what we do in the SECT. All those games are likely against Q1 competition.

I think today’s win assured us a 3 seed, imo.

Winning the SEC tourney will be harder than winning NCAA tourney. No rest for the weary.

we will run the table this year.

For some reason, the late game doesn't bother me. at all.

I like us to beat Georgia, Alabama will not beat us three times this year, and the biggest game would be a potential Florida rematch. I still like our chances. I think Ole Miss emerges from the other side in a surprise. Ole Miss vs. UK finals. UK wins. Just like that.

How we could be ANYTHING BUT a solid 2 seed at that point, is beyond me. Arguably a 1.

I just want to see us go out there like Kentucky teams have always done in the past and stepped it up in March and simply....

won
