...so hopefully, we're getting this out of our system today, before it's a "win or go home" situation. But really, we've NEVER going to win an SECT, are we? Even in the rare instance when it looks favorable, we choke like dogs.
Possible silver lining- Lunardi said earlier that it we win, we're a 1 seed in the West. Lose, and we're a 2 in the South (UVa's region, with the E8 games in Louisville). That...wouldn't be so bad. Mabye even better.
Damn, I hate to use the word - and y'all will probably shoot me for uttering it - but we are still fizzleing SNAKEBIT as far as I can tell. fizzle! just a freakin' golden opportunity to win both titles this year, let alone fizzleing FINALLY winning another SECT - but CRAP - SNAKEBIT!
Regardless, I am tickled pink with where we are in our men's BB team - Barnes has been an absolute savior. Maybe he is to blame for these kind of letdowns we have seen, but he is also responsible for some incredible team play we have been blessed with this year. He can improve on that, even himself being an old dog. I'll be thrilled if we can make it through this coming weekend, but it won't be easy. Even the first game could be a tester.
That being said, who cares if it is a #1 or a #2? Being in the L'ville bracket would be more important, I think. So what do y'all say? What #1 would you prefer to be paired with? Duke? no UVa? yeah UNC - uh, not really Gonzaga? not a possibility IMO.
