Omnibus Thread on SEC Teams...

[AUDub]

We're good defensively. Cardwell and Broome had 9 blocks between them.

Better find an offensive groove though.

It's a shame this was waved off by a charging call, but we all saw it lol.

When he gets back to 100% Johni Broome may very well be the best defensive big in the conference. Oduro is a very good big at George Mason and he was effectively nullified last night.

In Cancun for a middling early season tournament. Auburn takes on Bradley on one side of the bracket tomorrow. Northwestern takes on Liberty on the other. Final and consolation are Wednesday.

Down goes Arkansas...

We've got a common opponent tomorrow. We cruised by Bradley and Liberty cruised by Northwestern. Face off in the final tomorrow afternoon.

Arkansas will be the best team in the SEC this year once Nick Smith starts playing; assuming that team stays health. Anthony Black is ridiculously good.

December with the long layoff sucks.

On a side note, Walker Kessler got his first start last night. Ended up with 10p 12r 5b (!) and 1a. Held his own well against Golden State and their nasty rebounders in a tight win.

His game translated to the NBA far better than I expected it would. Just a nasty defender.

 

[AUDub]

He may very well be the second best pro we've ever produced when all is said and done.

Walker Kessler is putting the league on notice

Don’t test him at the rim. Walker Kessler will block your shot.

Auburn playing a common opponent in Memphis right now in the Holiday Hoopsgiving matchup.

Auburn playing a common opponent in Memphis right now in the Holiday Hoopsgiving matchup.

And they're smoking us on the boards. Unusual for us.

Memphis wins it 82-73, shooting 50% from the floor (30 of 60) and winning the board battle by 11.

Bama plays Memphis Tuesday night in T-town.

Bigs had a VERY bad night.

 

[BAMAVILLE]

Yeah that one went weird. You have nights like that in basketball but that was one y'all should have won unfortunately

Agreed

I watched most of the Auburn @ USC game this evening. It was a good game that USC won 74-71, primarily because Auburn had the same issue we did against Gonzaga - turnovers, they committed 23.

 

[AUDub]

We're just incomplete. The shooting is improving a bit but now our bigs are starting to get picked on and we're turning the ball over a lot when we can't afford to be wasting possessions.

I'm confident Bruce will get them straightened out but we're painful to watch at the moment.

 

[AUDub]

That's better. Obliterated UW on the road and looked good doing it.

 

[AUDub]

Broome being a better matchup for Castleton than Kessler, who is currently thriving in the pros, makes sense lol.

Good win to open conference play.

 

[BAMAVILLE]

Solid win over the Gators (sorry Brazza)

Two interesting scores ... LSU beat Arky in Baton Rouge. Seems like Arky couldn't overcome the lead LSU created in the first half.

And Mizzou beat Kentucky at Mizzou ... looks like the same story as well.

Kentucky is really digging a hole for itself. They can turn it around but 8-5 is a tough row to hoe.

Poor Arky got that injury bug.
