Didn't we go out early last year?  Isn't Barnes on record as saying he doesn't care for the SEC Tourney?  Wasn't there a perception last year that we did better in the NCAA Tourney last year?

Did we lose on purpose?  Or at any rate, was Barnes just unmotivated?

We lost because we only shot less than 30%.  And probably a few other things

I was only partially watching on my phone at  a restaurant, so did not have the greatest view, but one of the bigger factors is we seemed to just let them drive and lay it in.

I am not really saying it was deliberate, but Barnes is on record as not liking the SECT.  I am going to stick to that being a factor.

Let's see how they do the tourney that matters.

I can?t think of a single thing we even came close to doing well.

Not unusual for him, unfortunately
