Anyone else think we win our last 6 games?

OP if you believe that this coach and team can string together 6 straight wins, give me a swig of what you are drinking quickly. In fact give me a case.

I saw the thread title about winning and thought we found a way to bring back Bruce. How disappointing. ..

The schedule certainly is favorable down the stretch. I think we can get enough wins to get in the tourney this year due to this factor. Losing to any of the teams left outside of the Missouri home game would be a bad loss.

This team hasnt showm the ability to win on the road very often. Don't see them winning out as much as I would love for them to. They have the talent to do so, but not the coaching. If this was a Pearl coached team I dont think we have more than 5-6 losses total. The A'M loss was the worst, the Mizzou loss could and should have been a win. Think we would have beaten UF at home but still lost in UF. Pearl owned Donnovan when he was here. Should have beaten Vandy, that is another bad loss that shouldn't have happened. Not sure bout the Wich St loss, would have been more winnable under a Pearl coached team. Jmo

I've heard Bruce Pearl was 10 feet tall and could shoot lightning bolts from his arse.

Of course they're capable of anything. But the chances of them pulling another TAMU is slim. That game in and of itself was a fluke.

lol I just saw this little gem.

We were up 12 at the half. How is it a fluke when we are sitting there with all 5 of our timeouts at the end of the game, after the comeback they made. And please spare us the % of the time they win that game at the end. They won.

For all the bball you apparently watch(judging off your posts in the bracketology threads), you really either don't get it. Or are just too stubborn to admit a bad coaching job when you see one.

But whatever, I just see that you like to call out seemingly uneducated posters. So I thought I would take the opportunity as well.

So losing double digits halftime leads and ending up losing is something you wouldn't consider a fluke for Martin and Tennessee?

The only fluke to me in that game was that a supposed defensive minded coach wouldn't burn a few of those valuable timeouts to mix up defenses and/or start a fire under them to get better effort.

That wasn't the point.

He's saying losing a game in which we were up double digits was a fluke. Criticize coaching decisions all you want (completely different topic), but I can't think of many occurrences under Zo in which we lost games when leading by double digits at the half.

Can you?

That is a question on a different channel but I'll answer, not that I can remember.

What I was addressing was the idea that that game was decided by a fluke shot at the end of that game. And he mentioned in another thread(I think) that their was only a 5% chance of them winning that game. First, that % was pulled directly from the buttocks. And second, that game was decided by horrendous defensive effort in the second half.

I have no problem admitting when I am wrong or if someone else brings up a valid point.

Do you?

It's never happened in Zo's time here.

I didn't say it was won by a fluke shot. I didn't say that bad coaching didn't contribute. Also, that % was not pulled from the buttocks.
