Bad day for our net... down to #40. Vandy's net combined with lots of our previous opponents losing wasn't good.
This week...
At #45 Florida
#6 auburn
Need 1-1

Agree, something seems odd though. We are one of only 3 SEC teams with 5 Quad 1 & 2 wins. We are 2-3 in quad 1 games and 3-? in quad 2.

Washington state loss yesterday cost us a Q1 win; we're 1-3 in Q1 and 4-1 in Q2. WSU is 53rd though, so that could be a Q1 win again soon, hopefully

Memphis (-3.5) at Tulane
Rutgers at Illinois (-12.5)
Maybe one of these go our way today

Northwestern and Washington State losing didn't help at all. Georgia Tech lost yesterday and have now lost 6 of their last 7.
I personally think we miss out on the tournament this year. We play Auburn twice, still have Bama and Kentucky again, and we are too inconsistent offensively to count any other conference games as wins.

February is very favorable for us. Right now, bracket matrix has us in 77/78

ESPN BPI has us a favorite in 8 of remaining 13 sec games

Our guards better shoot better than 7-28 like they did against Vandy

Hubbard is in a slump 3/14 yesterday and 1/11 Wednesday night. Hes better than this, so I'm not too concerned YET
-
Also notice Davis is getting reduced minutes. 15 minutes yesterday and 3 of his 4 lowest minutes totals have come in our last 3 games.
Hubbard needs to distribute a little more. Taking too many 15+ foot jumpers and not great 3 point shots. He had 3 assists yesterday which is tied for his 2nd highest. Needs to continue working to distribute

Vandy so bad we beat them by 13 and drop 7 spots.

Wasn't just the win vs vandy. Washington state lost (now Q2 win), north Texas lost, and NW lost. Bad day for our previous opponents

That just means he is due.

You can't really get bent out of shape over day-to-day NET movement. There's so many moving parts that mix into the formula.

Exactly. It’s crazy we have to focus so much on what other teams we played did. I understand punishing teams like Ole Miss on purpose for only playing 1 or 2 P5 teams but most teams like us play a decent number of power 5 teams on neutral courts and won them so it’s a bit silly to be judged based on how they do

Agreed that Hubbard was 1-11 against Kentucky on Wednesday. But he was 4/11 against Vandy on Saturday.
