Let’s be honest

If you told this fan base at the beginning of the year that this team would miss their backup PG for most of the season, lose their starting PG and starting SG and PF halfway through the season, would only play 7 fully healthy games in what became the best single season performance a conference has ever seen, walked away with a three seed, wins over Duke, Gonzaga, UT x2, Florida, we would have laughed.

Let’s go make a run in the tournament. Even butler at 60% is good enough for that to happen.

For those of you still hoping we win today

Remember in 2011, when we ran the table in the SECT and beat #2 Florida convincingly, and the committee resoundingly voted to give us a 4 seed?

Yeah, good times.

As of right now we have a solid 3 seed, and there's ZERO chance of getting to a 2.

So don't get your panties in a bunch hoping we keep winning games.

What we all should be holding our breath for is Butler's return for the NCAAT.

There really isn't anything else left this year.

Butler returns, we could get to an EE. He doesn't, well...see ya next year.

Either way, just remember: The committee hates us, and the refs hate us. We have to win 5 vs. 8 to have a shot at any title.

Ain't gonna happen. I'll gladly eat crow if I'm wrong on this, but I'm not and you know I'm not.

Pope's done a great job. I expected 20 wins, we got 22. Maybe 23. But we can't beat the injury bug this time.

Hey Jimmy Dykes, without UK, the SEC Tournament is a GHOST TOWN!!!!

So why do you INSIST on pumping up schools that don't give a HOOT about basketball other than when UK comes to their town!!!

I'll be Shocked if that arena is HALF full tomorrow unless UK fans stay and watch the games because the ticket prices to sell them won't be 1/10th of what they paid for them!!!!

The SEC can SUCK IT!!!

Forfeit this game!!

Maybe we should just forfeit this game to avoid more injuries and to give our guys time to rest and heal before the start of the big dance. The tongue-in-cheek comment isn't the thing to do, but it would be a way to avoid losing another player before the big dance. It seems that we can't string together more than 3 consecutive games without an injury to a critical player.
