I think our A game has a shot. But we've been nowhere near our A game the entire tourney.
Tennessee has been playing better than us but I'm not sure their roster keeps up, especially in the post.
Auburn had problems with our size and Duke is even bigger.
Houston has the least size of anyone left I think, I don't see them doing it.

They look pretty formidable, but I think the three SEC teams has the ability to win.

Thoughtful comment. Coming out of the SEC tourney, Florida was playing the best ball of anyone in the country. Haven't looked like the same team in the NCAA. Even with that, you guys are Final 4. Tonight it looked bad down 7 with under 4 to play, but then you guys flipped a switch and finished on a 12 point differential.
I've got Florida winning it all. Since I'm not really a fan of Florida or Auburn, I'd be just as happy to see Auburn burn it down and take home a natty.
Agree, that Houston isn't going to do it. And Tennessee needs a big game from Lanier to have a shot.
Really looking forward to completing the F$ and seeing what's left.
As a conference, we can still tie the 1985 Big East with 3 F4 teams. Best of luck to all of you still playing.

We can beat Duke

Probably not, they'll get every call you can.Somebody will need to stay with the Kappa Sig president, he can shoot lights out

Florida - AU should be the true natty. I think whoever wins that game (assuming we get by MSU) will win the NC.
UF is the best team right now

Duke will win it all

It’s March Madness Anything can happen. I thought Florida was done for last night and was utterly stunned to watch Tech control that game only to become even more stunned when Tech fell apart and Clayton did Clayton things.
Coming into the tournament I thought Florida had the best chance of all of us. Riding a hot streak plus having size is hard to beat but my overall thoughts were that Auburn, Florida, Tennessee, BAMA and Duke have all looked unstoppable at various times this season. It just depends on who is playing their best game that night. I would love to see that field play a mini series style tourney because they’re all great teams.
Right now though Duke has looked amazing. Tennessee still has to get past Houston and they’re favored but I’d love to see Zakai vs Flagg. That would be a genuine David vs Goliath matchup.

Florida will get blasted by Duke if their front court continues to largely no-show. Haugh is the only guy thats really showed up in all 4 tournament games.

Generally the best Player in CBB is on the best team. That team this year is Duke unfortunately. I do think all the SEC teams left CAN beat Duke, but in the end, Cooper Flagg will be the difference.

Alabama could have beat Duke. Bama had a spectacularly bad night shooting wise. Duke contributed to it some of it but not all.

I’ve seen all 8 teams play in person now, and nobody beats Duke unless they beat themselves. Their big guy is massive. I’ve seen us beat Auburn, I’ve seen us beat Houston, I’ve watched a lot of SEC games and unless they are off and you have your A game, it will be like last night for us. I hope an SEC team wins it, but it will be very hard.

We got to beat MSU before we talk Duke

Haugh is a great player that really doesn’t get the credit he deserves. He draws fouls almost as well as Edey did and is a rebounding machine with a far better shot. That said is hairdo is bad enough that he should be assessed a pregame foul every game.
But seriously he is a force.

Auburn played them close in Durham in December.

Yes, but we nearly beat them in their house earlier in the season and they benefitted from some questionable calls.
But…we’ve dropped off a whole bunch the past month. I don’t think we beat Mich St let alone beat any of the other remaining teams.

This Duke team is elite. I doubt that even an SEC all star team could beat them.
