If we can win out, with the notably difficult game at Arky, that gets us to 19-12 going into the SECt. Win two in the tourney and we finish 21-13. That would put us back on the bubble with a finishing record of 8-2 and road wins at Tenn, Bama, and Arky to close out the year. Not to mention a close loss to UK at home.
I know this is hard, but doable. Especially with the offensive changes the past two games. Moving JJ to the 2 and allowing him some rest from bringing the ball up the entire game is paying dividends. Crump looks really good at the 1. It allows JJ to spread the floor without the ball. And it is helping our rebounding by pulling the guards out away. Ogbeide definitely can be a beast when he has 1 on 1 rebounding opportunities. I'm not sure if it is the best coaching or part luck, but the changes are working. And the team has not quit, which is huge. We played great defense last night.
