Yep ..the inconsistency has been the thing. When we're on we can win...or lose to some of the best teams too.

Then the obvious answer is to fire that sorry HC for forcing them to play that way.
What a dumb-azz he is, compared to the incredibly smart one's posting here...
You’d almost rather be a 10 or 11 seed than an 8 or 9 seed. At that point what difference does it make?
In all seriousness at some point we should expect to occasionally compete for some type of title, whether it be conference or national. Otherwise our hoops program is no different than dawgs football program.Then the obvious answer is to fire that sorry HC for forcing them to play that way.

Agree. It looks like we're going to get in the tournament based on a pretty tough schedule, no so-called bad losses and a NET rating that is just good enough. But nobody who has watched this team thinks we are going to make a deep run. We have the talent to knock off a #1 or #2 seed, but also the inconsistency to lose in the first round. Once again, Florida basketball is somewhere around the 30th to 40th best team in the country, not seriously competing for a conference championship and hoping next year will be better.
I’d rather play a 7 seed first game than an 8 or a 9 and then the no.1.
possible. I think one more win somewhere gets us in, but if that’s all we win it will get a little dicey on selection Sunday.
We lose tomorrow and to Kentucky, then we better get a couple of wins in the tourney.
I hope that the check to the SEC officials didn't bounce, otherwise they are in trouble for sure....
I think 1 win might do it. A Georgia win for sure no matter if we lose right away in the tourney and probably even one win in the tourney but I would be a little more nervous with that scenario.
The bubble is pretty soft this year but I don't see us getting in if we were to have a 4 game losing streak here.
No comment, just passing it along...
One ESPN writer believes Florida can make a run and really improve its tournament seeding. Jeff Borzello predicts the Gators will win the SEC Tournament Champions.

If we get in as a #4 seed, 3 in a row. If we drop to #5 or below we have to win 4 in a row to win the title. Right now we're in 4th place, 1/2 game ahead of Miss. St. & South Carolina. Lose to Georgia tonight and we drop into a tie with them and then have to play KY Saturday. South Carolina closes out vs. Vanderbilt Saturday, while Miss. St. plays Ole Miss. Not sure what the tiebreakers are between us, Miss. St. & Carolina.
I agree, we can win the SECT. As in, we have the talent and have played to that level in spots. Will we? I would love to see it but have my doubts.
Great question considering outside of one 7 game winning streak, we've never won more than 3 in a row under White.
Ding Ding Ding! You knew exactly where I was going with my question.
One of the best profile pics and names on this Board.
I disagree. I bet our rebounding and scoring in the paint are pretty good in the SEC. we could easily win three games in a row. I bet we have the second best roster in the sec.
Lordy. Glad to only be down 2. Dawgs scored 19 points in the firs 6:05 of game. We decided not to play defense again. Need a hot start to second half.
Mike White needs to come unglued. This is an atrocious showing by the officials.
Critical win and great focus the 2nd half. I was watching softball and baseball, so missed most of the game. Just followed the stats on ESPN.com and checked in during commercials. If Auburn & LSU both lose tonight (both trailing late), UF moves to the #2 seed spot for the SEC tournament, based on tiebreakers and the same 11-6 conference record. But it still doesn't guarantee them a Top 4 seed and a 3rd round bye unless then beat KY Saturday. But nice win. .
Scottie and Locke played well in the 2nd half. That should lock us into the tourney. Now we play for seeding.
Yep we definitely underachieved regular season with this roster but a sweet 16 or better and that will mostly be forgiven.
Good win tonight. Georgia's senior night on the road and they have the top rated player in the country. The gators are playing their best basketball of the year right now.
1. How bad is the rest of Georgia's team if they have the projected #1 overall player yet are 15-15? What, is football taking up all the player purchasing budget so basketball could only afford one player?
2. How weak is this year's NBA draft going to be if the #1 overall player is from GEORGIA?
When we play a complete game we can hang with anyone. Been interesting to see how this team plays out.
