Welp, tough night. The officials bail out the dawgs everytime the Gators make a run. Phantom foul calls and then on the other end we get knocked to to the ground and no call.
2024-25 Basketball,,, all things considered...

10 for 20 from the FT line. Ouch. Klavar with a wide open look and shot clock running down, and he passes it? Ugly game. Get it out of our system.
Being down 26 while missing 11 free throws will lose us a ball game. It hurts more when our best FT shooters are missing as well.
It was piss poor officiating the first 10 minutes of the half, all we had to do was make our free throws.
Yep free throws could have changed the outcome but the refs were definitely helping them even more than home court would normally get you.
Every bubble team playing a ranked team at home has won since Saturday.. this will continue until the conference tournaments.. Because it continues every single year in this "sport"
3 takeaways from Georgia's stunning upset of No. 3 Florida
Unranked Georgia pulled off a stunning upset on Tuesday night in Athens, taking down No. 3 Florida for a key SEC victory.

Georgia came out attacking on offense and smothering on defense, plus they hit everything they threw up. We didn't match their intensity and basically everybody except Will Richard had a bad night. Clayton had his worst game of the year, but Haugh & Aberdeen were off, Condon was still rusty and Martin was below average. Throw in all the missed free throws and that's the formula for losing to an inferior team. Even with the comeback late, they didn't deserve to win the game. They didn't play together and hopefully this bit of humble pie will re-focus them for the stretch run. You just can't take any team for granted, especially on the road. Learn from it and move on.

The whole reason we needed a 1 seed is because we get treated like we're playing against Kentucky every single game by the whistles.. we needed the easiest path possible to make a Final Four, I hope the millions the SEC makes from putting another team in to lose by 20 in the play in game was worth destroying one of their pillars this year.. Funny how UGA and Arkansas couldn't score 80 plus until JUST after they played Auburn, both of them.. That's why I really want this UF team to stick it up everyone's ass and go out for blood..
It's also worth noting just how ****ing hilarious it is that UF was demoted to a 2 seed DURING the game last night and no matter how many games Bama loses the thought of moving them off the 1 line is not even a possible thing.. Much less Duke not playing a single ranked opponent since DECEMBER FOURTH

How much do teams get for making the NCAA Tournament?
The NCAA distributes a portion of its revenues to conferences based on how their schools do in the Big Dance.

A few games to go but I think most computer bracketology and other projections will likely have us as the 5th team right now and the top #2 seed. I think if we win @Bama there is a good chance we get a #1 seed but I think they want to limit the SEC to two #1 seeds if they can and Houston likely gets a #1 seed because of that.
If we lose @Bama I think the TN - Bama game winner likely determines the #1 seed as Bama won't be hurt by losing @Auburn in their last game if they just beat TN and us.
History says getting a #1 seed gives you a much better chance to make a Final Four than a #2 seed but I think that is more on the quality of the teams and think a #2 seed in Atlanta would be better than getting a #1 seed in California if Houston didn't get a #1 seed. We already showed we can beat Auburn away from home and they will likely get Atlanta.
