vs Vanderbilt

They should win out and unless UK does so, they will win the tiebreaker. That win was so big for them last night, it probably pushes them back onto the top 4 seed line if they take care of business.
 
At UF
At Vandy
Those two will be tough but neither as tough as at aTm was.
Have a little faith.

Not how it works . The tie breakers only work for SEC T seeding . UK will win out so it doesn't matter but even if we lost 1 more at worst we would share the title as we have done before . I remember one year the title was shared by 3 teams.Also don't be surprised if A&M loses one more of those games they only play hard every so often.

That's the unfortunate consequence of that terrible call. In all likelihood it not only decided a game but also a conference championship. It probably hurt the SEC but harming it's flagship teams seeding as well.
 
If we win out, and I think we will, there is nothing they can do. The schedule has been stacked against us, especially the last month of the season and our team has grown up quite a bit in that time.
 
I guess I'm less confident of winning out without Poythress or Willis. I'd take 3-1. And yes, UK could still claim the SEC title with a tie, but they also lost head to head.
 
I dunno man, thats kinda speculating a lot there. They barely beat us, and it took overtime with some silly mistakes to win the game at texas am.... We should regain momentum and be a force the rest of the season and tournaments.
 
If there's one thing I've learned from this season it's never underestimate TAMU's ability to choke down the stretch.

Win or lose the SEC, I just want to see a healthy UK in the NCAAs. Duke didn't win the ACC or ACCT last year, then cruised through the NCAAs. Not a lot if Duke fans were complaining about that result.

I agree. They have a much easier road than we do.

Yep tying is still winning . I love the Miami Hurricanes in football and I could care less in 91 when we split a title with Washington . WE would be the 2 seed IN SECT but again who cares. Just win it . If it is 8 way tie again who cares?
 
I agree, and with all of our injuries, it wouldn't surprise me if we drop one at home to Bama or LSU. In fact, i'm kinda expecting it, if Willis or Poythress aren't back for those games. The Willis injury is a backbreaking blow to this team, for however long he's out. He's that 3rd perimeter scorer that we so desperately need. You saw how tough it was for Ulis and Murray to get open when he went out. They just laid off Briscoe, and doubled sometimes triple teamed those two when they had they ball. A&M had no fear of them kicking out, because we had noone who could knock down 3's.
 
A&M will lose another game. Their arena will be half full if that and they will lose to someone. Also we don't need a one seed to win the SEC tourney. Just need to finish in the top 3 so we get a double bye and a easy Friday game.

Also the main goal is to finish strong and get 100 percent healthy for the NCAA tourney.
 
Well, that settles that then. Maybe we should just forfeit the rest of our games and rest up for the tourney.

You are right,Cal may have to come up with a creative line-up.The Alabama game now becomes worrisome.
