You lost to Kentucky twice by a total of 37 points. If that's the "shot" you're speaking of, you must be firing blanks.We have a shot against Pitt. About the same chance against Kentucky. We would have to play excellent. But we have a shot.
i think we could pull a surprise against pitt.... they have been hot and cold this year beating up on uconn, but losing to providence right after they got the number 1 ranking... if they let us sneak up on them its not impossible for us to steal one.... but in this bracket there's no way we go all the way
If we had not played the tough OOC schedule it could of been possible that we would not have made it to the dance this year. This season did not turn out the way alot of fans dreamed of but it did turn out the way CBP thought it would. I am a CBP supporter and hope he does not go anywhere because of the negativity being thrown at him from the fans.
We are in uncharted waters for our mens BB program going to the dance 4 consecutive years and CBP needs to be acknowledged for this accomplishment. I recall 5 yrs ago and later when we could not even put a competitive team on the floor. Now that we have drank from the glass of success some fans are demanding championships and final 4 showings. There is nothing wrong with those aspirations but be realistic when things don't turn out that way. This was a down year overall in the SEC in BB, alot of the teams have youth starting and will get better next season. We lost the best 3pt threat last season and if Lofton had not been here last year where do you think we would have been?

I would love to see a Tennessee-Pittsburgh matchup....i mean if you match them up down the line we can guard every starter....even blair! I mean we got some guys that can foul blair. Williams and Chism....maybe throw in Jurick lol....anyone can guard that little fat guard fields.....maybe we can run to the elite 8....just maybe
