Stop being so paranoid, Mike.
Most people are plenty impressed by the SEC getting 14 teams in. But it is newsworthy that six of those teams lost, (even if we're still dead even — 1-1 — in upsets). Totally legit for Stewart Mandell to note that objectively, particularly in contrast to the 8-0 (so far) B1G.
Quoting some Twitter guy with all of 82 followers making fun of Southerners over this is just gives that loser attention. It is utterly meaningless, and very silly for you to let it ruffle your feathers (or, more accurately, for you to try to get it to ruffle OUR feathers).
Why live down to that losers' narrative that we Southerners can be goaded so easily? Why do we spend so much time trying to turn ourselves into victims?
My bracket only has Auburn and Florida going to the Final Four, but I'm hoping Tennessee or Alabama will join them — even though I hate all four of those schools!
@CandlerPark Just taking the temperature in the room, let's see how many Sweet 16, Elite 8 and Final Four teams the SEC produces! I have 2 of my Final Four from the SEC
The more conference teams in the tournament, the higher the odds get for a loss. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out..unlike all these "X" posters posing as so called basketball "experts".. they're nothing more than expert 🤡🤡🤡🤡 on their best day.
All in good fun, Mike. 🤩
So far, Calipari is doing us proud! I did actually have Michigan beating A&M (mainly because you can't do poorly betting against the Aggies 🤩). But, twice now, the Hogs have given the SEC house money to play with. Let's see when Auburn pulls away from Creighton-brenner … not too long now …
Do these naysayers realize it still could be an all SEC final four?
Nobody thinks the top 4 were not worthy of their ranking(s) all year. But the bottom four that all lost…..eh. Come on Tex only had 15 wins! Love the dawgs effort and I support dem but a losing record in conference. Prob should have taken 11 (which is still impressive!)
3 in the sweet 16 so far.
@CandlerPark I'm all on in Coach Cal…..
