Will be disappointed with anything less than 5-2

BPI isn't biased against us like our fans. Obviously this doesn't mean we will win all these games, but BPI is pretty good. It called tonight's game basically 50/50
Yeah, and BPI also had us winning last night. Until we win a road game I have zero faith we can get on a roll

50.2% favorite. The game was basically just how BPI called it.

We will lose one or two we shouldnt lose.

We're just not very good. I've seen jr. high girls teams handle the ball better. And don't get me started on FREE THROWS. Just awful.

I'm sure your eye test is more accurate though.

Are you saying there was a chance?

I always chuckle when people use percentage to say a politician won by 8 points in a two person race. If the mean is 50 and the winner got 54, they didn't win by 8, they won by 4% plus 1 vote. But math is math so everybody clap -Footloose!

50.2>49.8. Obviously math is hard. We lost by 4.

And I guess Ole Miss won the coin toss then? Someone has to win or lose. BPI had us favored by 0.4. We lost. The whole point of my post is don't trust ESPN's BPI to judge how we should or shouldn't finish. As I stated earlier, until we win a conference road game I'm not counting anything as a sure thing.

I am taking this season game by game. The way this season has played out has been strange in the SEC overall. UK losing at home to UF after winning @UF was strange. The SEC very well could get 9 teams in the tournament assuming State, UF, and aTm can get to around .500 in the league. UT, Bama, Auburn, UK, Ole Miss and USCe are pretty solid barring a complete collapse

Man, using a metric that calls a game 50/50 to disapprove it when the game is decided in the last possession makes you one tough critic .

Bracketmatrix has us in 84/86 brackets. I'd say we're pretty solid too

Yea they are generally pretty decent, but last year I believe they had Rutgers about that same percentage and Rutgers didn’t make it. We just have such a tough schedule because we have to play most of the top teams twice. Vandy, Mizzou, LSU, UGA and Ark are the 5 bottom teams and we only play all of them once. Hopefully the committee looks at this if we end up 8-10 while another team is 10-8 or so that played most of those teams twice. It’s just so hard to tell what the committee would do. It would be nice to upset Bama Saturday because that would pretty much lock us in

I don?t trust this team in any game. They are a rollercoaster mentally. They could win every game left on the schedule or lose them all. Neither would surprise me.
