Tough win against a nasty USCe defense.

Still play slow and sloppy early, sometimes looking like we're moving in slow motion, but they're showing flashes of really good things.

Lot of points off the line...shot close to 80 percent. Defense was fantastic tonight. Sold out venue with an electric crowd. Plus Ronnie Brown and Caddy in da house.

From my scenario a couple of pages back...

Lost to Vandy and Florida, check. I had that down.

Got a win over Mizzou, which I said we'd at worst split. So we're there already.

Beat SC, which I called a tossup and said we'd either beat them or Arkansas. Book it.

Right on track, it seems to me.

From the sounds of how the crowd was rocking, I would say they almost had to be enjoyed themselves.

Agree.

But it won't stop the peanut gallery uncle Ricos types from declaring us either: world beaters or worst team ever after every win/loss.

We didn't want to win anyway.

We just ended up a little flat. When teams have as much success as AU basketball, you have to fight that expectation of just having to show up. We will get it straight before March madness.

We are the worst team in the history of basketball!!!!!!!1

Oh come on, folks. That was a mercy loss. Our Corch Pearl knows that nobody should have to endure more than 22 road losses in a row. He took one for the conference.
