Gets its own thread because I have a question: how do losing fans sell their tickets for the rest of the tournament now? I suppose the only way is to browse the online sites (StubHub, TFL, etc). Gone are the days when a disgusted fan going home can sell them cheaply and impulsively.

Back in the day, you would wait in the concourse for the losing fans to file out and hope they were so pissed that you got quality seats for the rest of the tourney at a song.
Now it is all done through Ticketmaster.
I have grown quite tired of buying tickets for the SEC tourney through the U of A and being in the upper rafters of Bridgestone Arena (I could actually touch the roof when I stood up one year). I have tickets for our session Friday night and will wing it after that.
Prices online are ridiculous right now in the lower bowl. They usually release some tickets tomorrow morning through the SEC office. I'll check that in the morning but probably just buy to sessions I want to go to as cheap as I can find except for sessions the Hogs play.
My daughter is in Nashville so we are making a week of it. I love our draw as far as when we play. Going up Wednesday and coming home Monday morning. We are staying at the Embassy Suites right by the arena so I can go over and watch Kentucky lose and see how pissed the Big Blue Nation gets.
I'M GOING. This is what I am doing:
I have tickets for our session Friday night and will wing it after that.
I won't buy for any session we are not in. I probably won't buy for Sunday if we are playing Florida.
I would ASSUME for the last game on Friday even though I bought the cheapest nosebleed seat, I will be able to poach on a much better empty seat.

Always like Urban Grub but may not hit it this time as we have been there several times.
Usually hit Biscuit Love for breakfast once
Love Kanye Prime as well in the gulch.
I've done Pancake Pantry and the hot chicken places.
I like Southern. We are thinking about going as well.

Ain't that the damn truth! Last time we were there we sat at a table with 2 linemen from the Titans. Needless to say they had to bring us extra bowls of mashed taters.

Same.
I want to see the market flooded with all the tickets from dejected Kentucky fans.
Plus I want my early season boast to a Kentucky fan acquaintance...asking if I could have his tickets after they lose on Wednesday...to come to fruition.
Refs have been letting KY get away with murder under the basket.
Damn. What a dunk. Fucking killed the Kentucky guy.

And of course they are going to call a flagerant one ont he LSU player for making contact witht he Kentucky player's head.

Well the Wrong Team is 2-0. I don't really care about Ole Miss-Texas but for selfish purposes I would like USC-E to beat Oklahoma.

Thanks. The 20-0 run really helped and that Okpara block on the alley oop dunk is our defense highlight of the season.
11-8 Ole Miss over UGA with 12:19 left in the 1st. Ole Miss is 4-14 in SEC play but I wouldn't necessarily want to play them right now. Dia is a stud and Chris Beard has them playing that old Eddie Sutton-style defense.
I feel like we're watching two JV teams here
ole miss is 2-12 their last 14.
plus they would be playing their fourth game in as many days if we both make it to saturday. that would be the dream scenario for us.
Ole Miss desperately trying to join Missouri and Auburn on the short bus
OM has gone total retard.
Aggy will beat OU then beat Arkansas tomorrow.
Quote from: mde114 on Mar 12, 2026, 08:34 PMAggy will beat OU then beat Arkansas tomorrow.
I think we play Sunday.
OU might be a tough out tomorrow.
If Bama beats OM, we will beat OU because this team wants to get to a revenge game against Bama. Cal wants another chance to stick it to Oats.
If Bama loses to OM, I can see us losing to OU with the team more focused on Selection Sunday than giving max effort tomorrow night.
much rather take our chances against ou. aggie always plays a mucked up game against us.
with a 4 seed on the line i don't see a let down regardless of who we play.
Dane Bradshaw just made an excellent point that I have been noticing all day. He said the last two games, the team that has already played a game came out much sharper and focused. It was actually all four games today, maybe he didn't see the earlier two because he wasn't working them. Even though Auburn lost, they were much better in the first half. Seems like sitting a game is not a benefit, even if you're a higher seed.
Talk about peaking at the right time.
Just got home from our game. Did not expect OU to be up 20 at half. OU has been playing good ball of late.
Sure would be nice just to kick their ass and leave no doubt.
Lunardi has Bama as a 3 and us as a 5. Same record overall and same conference record. If we both make it to tomorrow and we win, Shirley that would change.
Doug Show is doing the UF-UK game, so we've got that going for us.
Lunardi says Fla is playing for a 1 seed, even though he has them as a 1 seed. So he thinks UConn is better?
BetSaracen line: Hogs (-7.5) (O/U 167.5)
Damn there's a lot of white dudes on the floor. I can't remember our last white guy...Pinion?
Lunardi has lost it the last few years w/ hubris and signs of early stage dementia.
Speaking of hubris, I'm on a 7-0 run in the SECT since UK lost the cover in the last minute of the first game Wednesday.
Fade me today, you guys.
Well...we're waiting. I am not 7-0 and would appreciate a lock. Thank you.
UT vs Vandy was the only one I felt good about today when it was a 0.5.
I went halfsies on Florida -6.5 1H/-11.5 full time. Just to have action.
No feel on the later games. Beard and Moser are damn good tournament coaches.
I'll probably see how the first 2 games play out, make a rash decision, and give it all back.
And I meant UT over Vandy. It's up to 1.5 now. I'm probably going to take an alternate line w/ better payout. I think UT beats the coondog shit out of them. Mr. Z, if you screw this up, I swear to God...
Fla is puckering up

Well, I just alternate lined UT -5.5 +155, so make sure they play or your Pig dues are going up!
Of all the games I have watched, it looks like a boxing/wrestling match under the basket. You have to nearly take a player down to get a foul called. So, our big men should foul out in about 8 minutes, because they will be abused underneath and be called for the foul.
This Tennessee / Vandy game is disgusting.

It's amazing that our games never look that Ken-Fla game, where both teams basically do whatever they want on the inside without fouls being called. Our "bigs" breathe on somebody and it's a whistle, while on the other end the they get mugged and "it's let them play".

Doug Shows is officiating this game so we won't get him, thank the Good Lord.
4pt play coming up for Vandy if he can hit the FT.
Vandy dude got fouled twice on that layup and no call. Fla gets away with everything.
Vanderbilt is better than I remembered, I guess because we beat them so easily. Their whole team shoots 3s.
Fla plays defense like Bama's secondary did under Saban, all hands and fouls, knowing that the refs won't and can't call something on EVERY play.
We're all Commodores for the next 20 minutes of gametime.
Golden complaining about the officiating is rich
Even though I am for Vandy I hate that fucking call. You just let the offense run right the fuck over guys now.
They refs aren't call shit under the basket. Wasn't that goaltending that they missed before the run-out lay-up?
You watch, after this rugby match, they will call our game very tight.

This is getting out of hand.

Anchor Down, bishes!

Golden got that T intentionally. He followed the ref out onto the court in his ear.
Not that it's going to matter I don't think.

If Vandy plays like this tomorrow we won't beat them. But it would be very hard for them to play like this 2 games in a row. > 50% both from the field and from 3.

This is what I'm worried about. Everything goes right until it doesn't.
If we get to play Vandy winner should get the 4 and loser the 5. Just hold the 2 spots, committee doesn't have to change anything else.
We get to wear whites all the way through if we keep winning.
4 vs 5 seed doesn't really matter. I think 3 is out of the question. That would make a difference. Would even prefer a 6 over a 4/5 seed
We beat Vanderbilt 93-68 on January 20th. We finished with a higher seed than them in conference play. If we beat them tomorrow for the SEC tournament championship, how on earth would they deserve a 4 seed in the Big Dance and us only a 5 seed? No way that happens.

I disagree. There is typically a huge drop-off between the quality of a 12 & 13 seed.
if we win the whole fucking sec thing, they should make us a 3 seed.

correct. 4 seeds reach the sweet 16 at a 48% clip, 5 seeds at 34%. you also get a more favorable location to start.

We should easily get a 4 now
Just wish we could get OKC 1st two rounds or Houston 2nd two
Cal was on fire at the presser after the game
he's the first sec coach to win the tourney with two different teams.
and you have to give him and the staff major props for keeping the team on an even keel after bringing in two freshmen who were going to take major minutes away from returning guys.

Our quad 1 record was 7-8 vs there's at 10-6. My guess is that's the difference? I wouldn't be surprised to see us both get a 4 seed though.

Well this was regarding the SEC tournament, but anyhoo.
Peter Schrager is the only pundit to pick Hogs to final that Ive seen. Most others have us losing to Arizona. A few lising to fucking Wisconsin. I think they are all possible depending on which team shows up.
