Tonight's game defines our seeding in my opinion...

[onewoof]

I’m not a gambler, but that seems odd. Is it normal to see discrepancies like that?

its got to be whether or not Alijah Martin plays or not. 2nd best player on the team.

Some odds makers think he won't play or won't be 100% healthy. Some think it won't matter.

Bama team stats are crazy high. Florida is only high in offensive rebounds and total rebounds. They turn the ball over a good bit. Stats wise believe it or not it is a close game on paper.

Florida played without a their best big man for an extended period. Also their best player missed a game in Walter Clayton and another key guy has missed action.

They are healthy now if Martin plays

He’s out, final injury report just came out.

MS kid, he would have gone off.

Our schedule was front loaded

We played the only bad team in the conference twice already. Our schedule wasn't "front-loaded"

Very much true. There isn’t anyone with an easy sec schedule, but getting South Carolina twice sure helped

The Bracket Project's Bracket Matrix - 2026

Pretty even split between 6 and 7 going into tonight. We would move up to 5 seed on a few brackets with a W. Should finish pretty strong with our remaining schedule on our way to the 4 seed.

Our schedule was front loaded. For example here is Alabama's remaining schedule:

@ Texas

vs #1 Auburn

@ #21 Missouri

vs #15 Kentucky

vs #22 Mississippi State

@ #5 Tennessee

vs #3 Florida

@ #1 Auburn

That's nasty!

To be fair he did not play against Auburn either.

 

[onewoof]

To be fair he did not play against Auburn either.

I'm guessing there's some sort of stats modeling that says tonight's game will be closer than usual.

 

[o_HuntDawg]

Getting blown out at home. Even to a highly ranked team. Is really bad for the net.

 

[Rezdog]

This team will not win another game.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

This team will not win another game.

At least not against a ranked opponent

Seeding in the NIT?

 

[Bobby Ricigliano]

we win tonight - we will be a 4 or 5 seed. We lose - we are in the 7-10 range.

And the definition was shitt.

 

[GloryDawg]

we win tonight - we will be a 4 or 5 seed. We lose - we are in the 7-10 range.

We might be in the play in game.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

We might be in the play in game.

...and that's good enough for this fanbase. Just happy to claim "in".

 

[MSUDC11-2.0]

Getting your *** kicked at home is a great way to play yourself onto the bubble.

 

[onewoof]

A&M going to beat us by 35 at the Hump

 

[Doubledawgblitz]

Right now I don't see us making the tournament. We are going downhill fast and there is no effort!!!!

 

[JacksonCPAdawg]

we win tonight - we will be a 4 or 5 seed. We lose - we are in the 7-10 range.

this is a bubble team at best

 

[onewoof]

this is a bubble team at best

We could sucker punch a good team once on a hot night, but other than that we are 1 or 2 games and done

 

[bully12]

Sadly,

I expect us to not be ready to play and to get beat by double digits. I'd like to be wrong.

Sadly, you were not wrong.

 

[BoDawg.sixpack]

A&M going to beat us by 35 at the Hump

Georgia with an 11 point lead over A&M currently.

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

9 or 10 seed

 

[DoomSlayer]

We were a projected 7 coming into the game. Lose Saturday and we are on the 8-9 line. Have another bad week and we are directly on the bubble.

 

[Doubledawgblitz]

Bubble watch is likely
