I agree its pretty disappointing. I could forgive one loss to the bottom dwellers because it happens and the blown game to A&m and UK.

Yes but threads like "the season is over" are retarded unless you thought we'd win the SEC or NCAA tourney preseason.

Did you miss the last month of watching Martin play? He will assuredly be drafted.


Exactly. And it looks to me like he put together a stretch of games where he played well, throw in a under the legs dunk, and hes confident hes done enough to impress NBA scouts. No need to to put out any more effort this season. This team got outscored in the paint and outrebounded by an undersized Tennessee team! If they cared 1 iota about making the tourney, that would not have happened last night.

The fact is its ONE GAME.


No, this result has been several games; MSU, AU, Mizzou...

This is nothing new for this team to underperform against vastly inferior competition.

We won the previous 3 and I didn't see near the praise compared to the constant bitching following a loss.





The fact is this loss puts us squarely on the bubble, we lose to Arkansas, we are out unless we have a great showing in the SECT. A 10-8 SEC team absolutely doesn't belong in the NCAAT

Lots of ifs.....if my aunt had nuts she'd be my uncle.

If this team sucks so bad why are they on their way to the tourney. Who cares if it's a 10 seed or 11. This is progress.

I agree threads saying the season is over are retarded, but so is burying your head in the sand saying UT was just hot last night. They were hot because our d was a flaming piece of shite.

There should be legitimate concern that Jones struggles getting his team ready, We have a lot of potential and the season isn't over but we have concerns.

Disagree, arkansas is a top 20 team. A loss to them will not seal our fate.

Defense wasn't great but they shot almost 70% in the second half. Got to give them some credit.

Really?

There is absolutely no reason we should be scraping and fighting for a 10-11 seed right now. Do you actually follow this team? Have you not seen the 4-5 games we have lost we had absolutely no business losing?

Sure, we may make the tourney. And yes, that is technically "progress" in relation to the last two years. But I'm not sure how you don't see these glaring issues and aren't extremely disappointed by what has transpired, especially in light of what we could have locked up last night with a decent effort and a win over a .500 team at home that we dismantled 3 weeks ago.

they shot 70% percent because our d was terrible.

Not arguing that we lost to a team we should've beat but if you've seen anything this season you would've seen that this team can beat or lose to any team any given night and 1 loss shouldn't be surprising or the end of the world.

We have a great shot to beat Arkansas this weekend bc that's who this team is.

This thread was intended for all the fans starting threads wanting to end the season today.

Decent though, I think we bounce back and play a competitive game.

I'm not surprised. That's the worst part in all of this.

2?-11 with an rpi in the 50s, and the 6th best SEC record=NIT bid. Nothing short of winning it all in Nashville will get this team in the dance. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you have to be honest with yourself. This team has 4 inexplicably bad losses.

Whatever cushion we had though could be out the window at that point.

We will still be dancing in March Fair weather fans

Is it just me that doesn't think it's a big deal to make the final 66?
