We have a legit shot to beat Bama if we play like we have the last 3 games . We will have our work cut out for us vs Florida but it's not an impossible task .


Not only are we going to beat Bama but it will be a comfortable W.

Pack the middle against Florida. Make their guards beat us. They shoot 29% from 3. They are not a good shooting team. We are at home. They can be beaten.

Funny you should mention women's basketball. I did a bit of a deep dive on them today, going over posts on their board, etc. Back when I lived in College Station, my brother and I bumped into Gary Blair at dinner one night. Showed us his national championship ring and couldn't have been nicer. As you know well, the program has now fallen off a cliff. Looking back, Coach Taylor seemed like a good hire. But with all the losing, longtime avid fans are obviously disheartened. Per one of the posters on the women's board, it's very sad.

Maybe but it's not just this one, it's a trend with our fans, going out of our way to feel disrespected at times.

Yes

And the other half has BAS and complains even when the teams are good.

We are going to need more than a couple of worthless mins from Fede against the gators.

Who was it on here that said they weren't impressed with Florida. They beat down bama


Oates just needs a little murder on his team to get them focused.

Pack the middle with Agee and who else? That's really our problem. I think we'll have to out score them. Like track meet. 105-102.

Oh well. Worry about Bama first. Those MFers I think we can beat.

The game tying three was such a difficult shot. He's incredibly polished for a freshman

I still like AJ Dybantsa over Peterson for the #1 pick. AJ is just an all-around great ballplayer who is so athletic.

What does everyone think about Ole Miss-TN tonight? I've been surprised by Ole Miss falling off a bit this year (11-10; 3-5 SEC), especially since we apparently pursued Chris Beard last year. TN is favored by 11.5, which seems about right.

I'll be surprised if Tennessee doesn't run them off the court.

The Vols have had a WILD schedule to start league play. at Arkansas, Texas, at Florida, A&M, Kentucky, at Alabama, at Georgia, Auburn.

Now they start a more manageable stretch of games. I bet they hammer Ole Miss tonight.

I suspect you're right. Aside from our flirtation with Beard, another interesting dynamic is Barnes and Beard both being former Texas coaches. Believe I dislike Beard more than I dislike Barnes. If Ole Miss keeps it close, I may find myself rooting for TN despite that it would work against us. Curious how emotions express themselves in watching sporting events.

Interesting looking at USC at tu. Lots of empty seats.
Maybe it's the time of the game but if it was us I'd be really disappointed

That tu team would be tough to root for. Really seem lackadaisical so much of the time. Trailing now but will probably win easily.

13-9 and 4-5 in conference is a lot different than 17-4 and 7-1. tu is up and down. We were supposed to be the high variance team but they really are.

Miller is a very solid coach but he isn't getting the buy in from his players that Bucky is. That may actually have been an advantage for Bucky as he got to select his team vs inheriting one.

Didn't have much hope for a Texas loss tonight with them playing SC at home. Surprised to see the Cocks leading 20-15 with 8 mins to go in the first half. Still early.

Maybe it's just me, but the only thing I really ever had against Barnes was that he coached the sips. I think he's a good coach and much more tolerable at UT. He even lobbied for us to make the tournament the year we were snubbed.

Barnes is a very good coach. You don't win perennially like he does if you're not.

Not just you. Really like him and it'll never not be hilarious to me that he gave Texas its best basketball ever, gets fired. Then gives another Orange team their best basketball ever while Texas sucks wind for a decade.

I agree with your positive opinion of Rick Barnes. He's a North Carolina native (my home state) and coached at Clemson before going to Texas. Has always seemed like a hard worker and genuine. Of course, in the early days, some criticized him for being linked to so many coaching positions. I never knew what to make of that.

You're a better man than I. No way I can root for Texas!
