Wow. SEC didn't do either us or USC any favors with the schedule, giving both of us about as tough of a game as they could right after our big game. Good to be tied for 1st again.

Wouldn't SC win the tiebreaker since they beat us (with official assistance)?

No tiebreaker for SEC champion. Only for tournament seeding. If we both finish with 1 loss, we're both champions.

Carolina had it extra tough because they had a game on Thursday while we were off until Sunday.

Edit to add: Our path to a 1 seed is clear again. Win out and we're a top seed and avoid UConn until the Final Four or title game.

We do have a clearer path to a #1 seed again. We should be favored in every contest here on out. USC still has a probable loss coming @ uconn. Still outraged at the hose job we got at USC.

I never thought I'd see the day when I was more into women's BB than men's. The guys are doing better and interest is up but the women have stolen the show this year.

Of the games the women have left the toughest will be mizzou, @TAM, @UK, and UT. That last game against UT just 3 days after @UK is a little worrisome.

This scenario sounds awfully familiar to me...

Which is how it should be with no round robin. Home court in basketball is usually worth 8 to 10 points. Even the SC coach said her team doesn't win that game if it wasn't played in Columbia.
