Alabama really has no business winning this game considering how poorly they’ve played. But, it looks like they might escape yet again. Sign of a very good team sadly.

Auburn’s arena has hit 109 decibels today. It’s 1/3 the size of TBA.

And this is after they’ve lost 4 out of 5 games.

Auburn has by far the best basketball fanbase in the conference right now

The cavernous size of TBA and Rupp are to their detriments when it comes to noise. I was at the 2019 UT-UK game at Rupp when they ended our run at #1 and as loud as it was it was nothing like a midweek game of AU-UF I went to the same season. It’s not necessarily the fans but the design and the design was intentional.

The three is just really not falling for Auburn when they need it most.

Auburn gave that one away

Yeah, I think some of these no calls on Bama here towards the end have been a bit odd, but I think refs hate Bruce (which is understandable)

As bad as they’ve played? They shot damn near 60% from the field. Just poorly by their standards from 3. 23-28 from 2. We miss 5 bunnies a game they missed 5 shots total.

I feel like the Auburn fans on this board have a pretty good perspective on watching a frustrating team underachieve. 5 losses in the last 6 games.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Yeah, that will just about lock up the regular season crown for Alabama. Not many other possible losses on their schedule.

Tbh the regular season crown is kind of worthless. The vast majority of people would likely recognize Tennessee as the SEC champs as opposed to Auburn imo.

Vandy about to hang a L on florida. Makes it less embarrassing that the game was close. Won't mention how we lost.

Vandy is a much better team with Robbins back, he's got 30 pts and 9 rebs at the moment, going against Castleton (who also has 25 and 11)

 

[SGMVols]

Vandy will end up in the top 75 and push our loss up to Q1. It sounds bad to say but that would actually be big for us.

What’re they at right now?

 

[TheMookieMonster]

What’re they at right now?

90. They have a ways to go. They need to keep winning.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I can assure you that Alabama winning this game does not help us in anyway. It doesn’t help us win the regular season. It doesn’t help our seeding. It doesn’t make our game on Wednesday any bigger or smaller. So, go Tigers. We need them to win.

Well in hindsight I’m glad Bama won because turns out it wouldn’t have mattered.

Man. Those two buzzer beaters don’t fall and we’re headed into a top 5 matchup Wednesday

I think that 50 years ago Saturday and Monday was the norm in the SEC. Hit the road with two stops and a travel day in between.

After that loss at Georgia today, the Kentucky fan base is ready to cut a check to get rid of Calipari.

They’re stuck with him. UK can’t afford the buyout

That was a weird "fight". Some jawing, the big guy threw an elbow that he immediately works into his arms going up like "I'm not doing anything", the smaller dude gets up and says something. Then big dude shoves him and then.....they basically hug and curse at each other than go knock down some people sitting on the side who seemed to fall in slow motion.

I had not seen that article. Good stuff. Dispels the notion that the fans are the number one reason for all the noise. Sounds like the architecture is the biggest determining factor in their volume.
