We wont be the team we could have now that we've lost Archie for the year. With him we pretty much lost a double double in most games.

But I am glad to see the SEC doing some things to get respect back after a bad start to the season.

Appreciate the props, but not only didn't you say we'd be going to the dance, you said we'd be the 5th best team... IN THE EAST.

EAST
1. Kentucky
2. Tennessee
3. Vanderbilt
4. South Carolina
5. Florida
6. Georgia

WEST
1. Mississippi State
2. Ole Miss
3. Alabama
4. LSU
5. Arkansas
6. Auburn

Beeds, FWIW, I think UK, UT, VU, and USC are headed to the Big Dance from the East. In the West, MSU and OM.

I could just as easily see Carolina finish 3rd and Vandy 4th. I don't think the two of you will finish w/more than a 1 or 2 game difference in SEC play, honestly. I think the East is clearly the better half of the conference this year. I think Alabama has the pieces to do something, but not sure what to expect w/Coach Grant at the helm, so I don't wanna put too much stock in them. LSU lost some senior leadership, I had to slip 'em down to 4th.

I don't think anyone will argue, at least, about my picks for #1 in each division

FWIW, I tried to tell y'all folks were underestimating us, with a lot of veteran players and some great recent classes... not to mention a pretty damn good coach. The only guy I know who even had us ranked last week was Jeff Sagarin, who had us 18th; and he had UK somewhere down around 30th. This week he has us at #7 and UK at #25. USATODAY.com

This win over MSU could have been a fluke, but I don't think so. 5 guys scored in double figures, if that sounds familiar: Parsons 14, Walker 12, Tyus 11, Macklin 10, and Shipman 10. Werner chipped in 9, Boynton 6, and Murphy 5. Boynton and Murphy are both freshmen, and had good games.

Personally, I think BD wanted this win over a highly ranked Michigan State team for personal reasons. In the 2000 National Championship game, we lost to MSU, after upsetting Duke 87-78, and crushing UNC 71-59 on the way to that big game.

Anyway, I hope it's just the tip of the iceberg for this team... many of them deserve some success, after sticking it out the last 2 years.

. THE RUN: 2006 Basketball National Champions, 2006 Football National Champions,
. .
2007 Basketball National Champions, 2008 Football National Champions

Wow, big win...'grats Gators. Mich. State is a favorite pick to make it to the Final Four once again.

After getting off to a slow start the SEC appears to be gaining ground once again. Vanderbilt played tough against Cincy then beat Arizona, Bama knocked off Providence and Baylor in back-to-back games, Florida has knocked off Florida State and now Michigan State, Tennessee put forth a valiant effort against a great Purdue team, Ole Miss the same against Villanova and Kentucky stays unbeaten. Let's keep it up boys...the wins'll start to fall for us!
MIRACLES HAPPEN!

Archie is only out for a few weeks; might even make it back in time to start SEC play. What sucks is we won't have him in our matchup with Clemson coming up here pretty soon.

As for the topic, solid win Gators! That should garner some respect for the SEC even though we're likely to hear from "experts" that Michigan State tends to play down until later in the season & are more of a tournament team that turns it on for the March run but still, they're a sound team that has enough talent to beat anyone in the country obviously. My brother went to State so I'm going to have to drop him a line and get his thoughts -- I'm sure he has some prepared excuses as to how they could lose to an SEC team when they're supposed to be a top 5 team.

It's funny. I've consulted several people, ran it through some pretty high-tech software, looked at it backwards and forwards and no matter how I add it up it still seems to come out 6-0. Strange.
