YOUR Auburn Tigers are #1 in the conference standings (and projected a #3 seed by Lunardi's latest) heading into a big showdown in Tuscaloosa.
Their usual apathy will be temporarily erased as they seek to ease the pain of the football chaos with a win over a hated rival...so it might not resemble a tennis match as much as is common in their hangar of a facility.
That said, our guys are loose and confident. Two full rotations of players...we've got crazy numbers of guys averaging 15+ minutes per game. The defense has been smothering lately and, in addition to forcing turnovers, our guys LOVE to share the ball. The T.O./Asst ratios are eyepopping.
Last, but absolutely not least, is the X factor: Jaylin Williams. His stats over the last dozen games or so are fucking stupid: 70%+ 2p; 50%+ 3p...it's insane.

Fuck Bama

SHHHHHHH! Not yet.

Fuck Bama
You don't say much frien, but when you do it's to the point and I salute you for it.

All that matters is Bruce having these boys playing this way around March. We've seen several runs like this under Lord Pearl, only to fizzle like an Alka-Seltzer come tourney time. The last two exits have been cringe-worthy.
Having said that, going in dry on the Tahd at their dump of an arena, would be oh so schweet!

Humping this post. Full bore.

But do we have enough to overcome the Merry Whistlers also?
That is the wildcard any time we play in their crap arena.

Feel pretty certain that Broome and Cardwell will each have 2 fouls by the 8:00 mark of the first half. Maybe by the 12:00.

Gotta protect the 2 point home favorite.

Told someone the other day we will be looking at a 15-20 free throw disparity.
And they will let that wall-eyed little mermaid-looking Sears run wild.

Well the bizarro-Auburn team showed up and did the exact fucking opposite of all this...and still had a chance with 2 seconds on the clock.
Not great, but not a season-wrecker either. Back on the horse Saturday in the Hump.

The blinking lights and ensuing darkness caused our team's epilepsy to kick in on the three point shots!
We need just one consistent sharpshooter. Decrease Denver's pay...He ain't doing the job.

Errbody but Johni had a tough night. Holloway was particularly off the mark at 0-12.
We did a great job rallying at the half, but every time we pulled even or slightly ahead, we'd bonehead it up and give the ball away.
Bama was bitchmade all night, too. They were shoving and stomping our guys. It was some bullshit.

Ryan Williams switcheroo as expected.

Have no idea if this is the start of a little slide, or if we bitch slap the pups Saturday and keep on rockin' in the free world. Just so that engine is running smooth 5-6 weeks from now.

I’m hoping a couple of home games will get us back in track.

Caldwell got it right. We're among the top forty and probably win about 12 conference games. Going deep in the tourney is about matchups, same for WT.

Tennessee goes down at home to South Carolina. :wtf:

UF knocked off UK (in Rupp) in another wild SEC matchup.
Ours was a nice, palate cleansing thrashing...but we should have beat them by 50. We're still playing really loose/sloppy with the ball and making stupid turnovers. 3 over-and-back calls is fucking ridiculous.
It was a solid conference win, but there is some fools gold there: home game, Vandy is undersized...and just bad mostly...
Saturday at OM will be a better test to see if these guys learned anything from losing two in a row.
-
I've noticed a lot of what I thought were over/backs in previous games. Was wondering when refs would start calling them.

A 30 point SEC win.
We have gotten spoiled.

I’m spoiled too. I was aggravated at losing to a Bama team that is inferior. Resigned to the hangover loss at State.
But Vandy isn’t “bad”. Yes. We’ve given them their two worst losses. But look at the rest.
Within three of Bama. Most of their losses are one or two possession games until the last few minutes when UT, MSU, LSU ans OM pulled away late.

I have gotten spoiled. After the Pig Roast, I was expecting us to win the conference going away. Then our flaws were exposed. Holloway has not evolved to the college game very well. He took some atrocious shots last night. He had some good looks but couldn’t knock them down. Denver Jones finally showed what he is capable of early on last night and then again in the second half. Jaylin still disappears at times. He could take over a game if he would.
Last night was businesslike. The usual manic energy from KD and Dylan wasn’t there. They took care of business but they were subdued.
We got sloppy in the last half of the first half and still led by 10 at the break and I was a little disappointed.
Like most Auburn teams, this one continues to be a mystery.
Did anyone else know that our golf team is number 1 in the nation? They were recognized at the half.

The rule is that both feet and the ball have to be in front court before you can have a backcourt violation. It is a funky rule that sometimes gives an optical illusion.

We're a golf school.
The loss to MSU, albeit on the road, was the one that was to disappoint. Simply because we couldn't throw it in the river. Dropping that one at Bama doesn't look too bad now. Hate to lose to the Turds anytime, but we haven't played well in Crapman Coliseum. And Bama is the hottest team in the league right now at 7-1. Then, you look back on their schedule, and some of their losses are to the likes of Creighton, Arizona and Purdue.
Funny how this league is, given the fact that Sakerlina has already beaten Kentucky and now, Tennessee. UT handled Bama easily, but Bama went to Columbia and hammered the Cocks by almost 30. We beat the dog shit out of Ole Miss, look awful against MSU, then OM whips the Dawgs.
Gonna' get much mo cray cray before it's over.

Being honest, I don’t keep up with equestrian events much. It’s spur-adic at best. I think that’s only farrier of me to admit.

Rein it in with the equestrian talk in a basketball thread. Y'all know basketball at Auburn is the mane event.
