Prepare yourself. Here it comes. SEC won't even be .500 in the tournament
And the SEC tournament suckage begins.
- Thread starter phyrekat
- Start date
It's the 14th team. The other conferences 14th best team is sitting at home.
You can’t win games by playing uber physical and chucking bad shots.
That shit doesn’t work in the tournament.

I hope you're wrong. I've been burned by SEC hype before. I've got everyone advancing but Arkansas. They adopted our snake bite.
Lol, if we're sitting here at the end of the weekend with 5 SEC teams remaining, this will be hilarious
If we are the last SEC team standing... I don't care.
That was a home game for Xavier. And it was the 14th best SEC team.
I’ll laugh with you as long as Kentucky is one of the 5
Johnson for Texas might be a lottery pick. However he didn’t seem to play a lot of defense and was quite stagnant on offense unless he had the ball tonight
One and done tournament so its very possible. Doesn't mean the conference sucks. The numbers instantly prove that wrong.
I've got UK, UF, Auburn, Bama and Tennessee all making it to the Sweet 16
If Texas ever gets the right coach, they will be a
perennial SEC power.
Texas is 1 of probably 4 SEC teams that shouldn’t be in the tournament.
Then you can't have a 68 team tournament then because unc sure didn't deserve to be in.
What numbers? The annual flameouts by the latest flavor of the day of SEC teams?
Well, when you cannot pull, grab, push, use illegal screen , lower your shoulder without being called for it….and basketball skills and coaching matters … the results will be like this one.
TX was only playing good at home where the refs let everything go. Dayton Ohio was a home game but for Xavier.
The 16-6 run at the end of the game where the 3 s start to fall made at difference…
I am expecting more Sec teams to lose first round: Ole Miss, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Mississippi State, Vanderbilt, Georgia.
The Sad part we have lost to Georgia, Tx, Arkansas, Ole Miss, Vanderbilt…..so that put us at risk to lose first weekend.
I don’t think SEC is as good on the mid - bottom …ACC was as bad outside of the top 4 and we were in challenge with them.
I also don’t believe that SeC will win in the NCAA title unless Florida stays hot and lucky.

UNC definitely did Not deserve to be in either. It's going to get worse when they expand the tournament too.
i got nothing against terry, but his team was not well coached. soft defense and low awareness. other than ohio state, texas was our worst loss. it was close and on the road, but still.
Texas was EXACTLY like a John Calipari team. Ultra talented but pitifully coached .
I always do since I don't give a beggar's f$#@ if the other SEC teams do well
This loss moves the SEC to 59-20 versus the other power conferences.
He’s winning enough to keep his job and Texas mediocre.
Guys…Texas was 19-15 (6-12). I don’t care how tough the conference is. A team with that record has no business being invited to the NCAA tournament.
Hate to say it but that’s like when we beat Oklahoma the other day. I swear I thought I had missed something with the way UK fans and UK media were celebrating after a win against a team that we should beat. They too were 6-12.
I’m a die hard SEC fan and will always pull for other SEC teams when not playing UK of course. But teams with those records do not deserve making the big dance. End of story!

That was a damn good game a possession here or there decided it. Not like they were blown out. Xavier is a solid team, one we may face shortly.
That’s why I loved Cason Wallace, good offensive player when needed. Decent shooter but took mega pride on defense and played hard.
Apparently not. It surprises me a little that they’re acting after only 2 years if that’s true, but I do think it’s the right move for them. They kind of felt forced to hire him full time after the team made an Elite 8 with him as interim coach, but his track record at Fresno State and UTEP would have never even whiffed a P5 job otherwise. They should be able to do better with all the resources they have.
All I’m thinking is if they are really going to call a very clean tournament then it sure does bode well for us.
Not a mind reader but I'm guessing he was thinking more about the NBA draft than winning that game .. As a UK fan you've seen plenty of examples
There will be some losses but sec teams will overall do well. Elite talent and elite coaching is a tough combination.
As some of us figured, officials will play a role. It isn't so much on ball defense, its all the rebounding and off ball stuff they let go in league. Sec lets teams just maul cutters and that won't happen in the tournament.
Hopefully officiating does cost the sec some games. Maybe then there will be an interest in getting it fixed in league play.
