SEC Basketball Thread

Yeah Heels are nasty. Still gonna be a good week for Ark. Really good if they win tomorrow.

Would have been nice to get Brooks. He’s starting but not playing a lot of mins. I thought we went after him pretty hard he just wanted to get out of Boogville.

Yeah, I'm not blaming bruce for missing out on him, but they did pass on that Obiagu kid because they thought they had Brooks. I'd love to have that Obiagu kid right now.

Yeah I don’t know what happened there. I feel like there’s an explanation beyond we didn’t croot him that hard. Makes no sense not to try to get a mildly athletic 7 footer when you have the chance.
 
UF beats Gonzaga. UGA and Vandy shit the bed. Vandy really struggling but they’ve played a tough sched.

Bama v Minn today and some mondo matchups tomorrow.
 
Ark steamrolls UCONN. Even shitass UGA beat #21 St Mary’s. Gatdamn we need BRUCE, AUSTIN and DANJEL freed ASAP.

Could be a huge day for SEC hoops. Some monster matchups this evening. Mizzou up at half. TAMU up early. UF - DUKE about to tip.

SEC is legit this year.

A&M beat down USC
Arky beat down UCONN
UGA beat a ranked St MAry
Florida lost a hard fought battle with Duke
Mizzou barely lost to WVU

I think A&M may be the best team in the SEC right now.

I saw him at an Auburn City council meeting that I had to go to last spring. The council was recognizing the basketball team for making state runner up. Someone was talking to him about college. He was being pretty candid with them. He said he loved Auburn but he had to get away. Even said then that he wanted to go to UNC but his dad wasn’t letting him go anywhere but Miss State. Not long after that, he signed with State. Not real sure what he did to get out of that but he’s apparently where he wanted to be all along.
 
Bama pulls it out. Better for our RPI but hard to not want to see them lose. They aren’t that great though.

The idea that you could just throw a couple of freshmen scorers in and they wouldn't have some growing pains was misguided. They won games last year playing pretty elite team defense. You inject the new guys who probably aren't well trained defenders yet and you don't just get their points with no negatives. And while you are trying to make them into better defenders they often lose a bit on offense. Should be fine with 10-15 games under their belt but you never know.

Sexton is insane though. He's gonna be a top 10 or top 5 pick in this years draft. He's exactly what the NBA wants right now. And he's going to be a PROBLEM late in close games. That's where his talent really shows IMO, when they just tell him to take over.

You're right. And I hate you for being right. But you're definitely right. I hope Sexton slides off the toilet seat and bangs his elbow on the toilet paper holder the next time he goes to take a poop.

Yes that part of the game where guys just dribble it the distance straight to the rack and due to the rules of the game there's no way to defend it without fouling even though everyone knows exactly whats about to happen? He's a stud and most definitely in that part of the game but their squad has plenty of holes. We could easily be better than them with AUSTIN back.

really starting to loath AU's compliance department. Chuck Person needs to be force fed 3wk old funnel cakes from the South Stadium dumpsters hourly til these studz are released.

SEC taking a nose dive the last few days. That 8th spot might be in jeopardy.
 
UF continues to embarrass the conference this week. Lost to Loyola Chicago. Vandy blows. Bama got a decent W.
 
Great slate of SEC hoops today. Conference needs to get back on track if we’re gonna get 7-8 in the dance.
 
Pretty good day. UF and Ark with some big wins. Bama/ zona later might try to watch that one.
