Lord willing and the creek don't rise, we'll win again.

7 players is a tough way to approach SEC basketball games.

Our only big can't do a fucking thing inside the three-point line, on either end of the court.  Losing this game would have required us to have the worst game possible, and so far we're managing.

That was such a bad loss I feel like we have to win the next two and at least one in the SECT.  All we had to do was beat a 1-14 team yesterday and lock ourselves in no matter what.  Now just making the tourney will exhaust us so much that we'll be too tired to put up a fight in the first round.
