The picks for tonight. Last time out I was 3-4 for my worst showing all season(5-2 was previous worst) I haven’t placed a bet since I was a senior in college 1979-80. I had a sure thing so I put 200$ down. 🤬🤬🤬Atlanta Falcons. That cured me. But I digress.

Gamecocks✔️✔️✔️@ Auburn
Hopefully you read my review and DarkCock’s.

MISS ST✔️@ UK
In their last five UK is 1-4. They beat a poor Mizzou team but in the other 4 they gave up 88, 91, 95, and 98 playing matador defense, OLE!! 💃🏼💃🏼.Petty is still most improved player but Jessika Carter clamps her down.

UT ✔️vs UGA
UGA is alone in the cellar 1-6 and has lost their last six. They hang their hat on that funky D but how do you win when you only average 55 points a game in SEC play? I’m telling you right now UGA vs UK WILL BE MUST SEE TV🤣🤣 The team that can’t score vs the team that can’t defend.

Ole Miss✔️ @ Vandy
Two darn good teams going at it. I’ve seen Vandy play more than OM and really like how they play. However OM is playing better and while they do not have The pick of destiny they do possess Tenacious D.

Bama @ Ark ✔️
This is their second matchup of the season. Ark pummeled the elephants the first time. Ark shot poorly but Dominated the boards and Dauda had 10 blocked shots and they won by 18. But this is Ark after all, a team that lost to UK and then beat them by 30 in the rematch 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ That said, Bama is no model of consistent play. I’m picking Ark but be warned it is a Forrest Gump box of chocolates 🍫 game.
Must See TV :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

Did you see they lost to Penn State and Owasu had like 18 points?
You made me curious, Owusu has only played in the last six games. She is averaging 18 ppg and is still just a nightmare matchup for defenses. She could make them a 5 or 6 seed or even host by tourney time. They go 10 deep and are a very good shooting team. A little weak down low.

I would really like to know what happened last year at Va. Tech. I shudder to imagine if she had gone to LSU instead

looking forward to watching Penn State's upcoming match-up w/ Iowa. Should be a fast-paced high scoring affair

Interesting HVL brags about how good LSU's second teamers are and how they are better than other teams LSU will face. Yet, LSU usually plays only seven players and the starters average 30+ minutes a game. High hopes/bravado do not seem to match reality.

In comparison, I would not see HVL cracking our starting lineup, but she could play a nice role on a solid second unit with Watkins, Feagin, Fulwiley, and Tessa Johnson. 🤷‍♂️ I don't say that mean-spirited. It's just reality.

I’m with you on every game except I think Vandy prevails at home, though like you said this should be a tight one. Thx for the review of games btw, apprec it.

I do kind of feel sorry for her. Nothing has seemed to work out for her like she thought it would. Her first coach leaves and then she stays for her 5th year seemingly to try and win a title and they aren't even ranked. She is a great player though!
Who isn’t ranked? Sorry if I am just dense here….

I've read she's not hurting for NIL money, so don't feel too sorry for her.

I went back to look at Georgia Amoore's numbers from 2 years ago and her shooting percentages were actually better than last year. Her scoring was up last season because she played more minutes. I have to wonder what Kenny Brooks said to Owasu to get her to go there. Point guard definitely wasn't a need for VA Tech.

Regardless, I'm glad things are working out for her at Penn State. She can potentially be really good in the right situation. She can't shoot from the perimeter at all, but surrounded by shooters, she's a nightmare matchup problem for opposing teams.

Not good in the pre-conference against the major opponents, mediocre against OOC opponents on rivalry Saturday, undistinguished in the bowls and thumped like a booger in the playoff. A year not befitting the best conference in America. The best conference (that doesn't suck) separates itself.
The first time in eons that the SEC doesnt win the NC in FB and you claim the conference sucked in spite of having 4 teams in the top 10. You do the same now with the SEC in WBB....why? Because you need to prolificate and

"Four of the top ten teams and five of the top 12 in the nation in final polls" does not equal "suckage". Also, your input for SEC WBB is weak sauce domed wonder. Third rated conference in NET and owner of the last two trophies, perhaps a third in a row coming. But type away thesaurus king, keep impressing yourself.

You feel the need to type "word salad stuff" so you can read your own posts I suppose. Again, your salad is a big nothing. You can go back to googling the personal life information of a female coach now.....Dear lord, get a grip, that whole sequence from you was creepy.

I watched the SEC largely dominate both the BCS and CFP eras, often (not always) fielding five or six teams (some combination of Bama, LSU, Auburn Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida) that realistically could have won it all in a given year. So, yeah, compared to those years, the year just past constituted suckage. It might even be a generous characterization.

More BS. Bama lost a close game in the semis, could have won it all. Georgia had one loss, to Bama, could have won it all. There were two legit candidates in the SEC to win it all this year, same as it ever has been. Never has any conference had 5-6 teams ready to win it all in a single season. And no conference had 4 teams in the top ten as did the SEC this year.

But keep on with your word salad schtick in between texting about the personal life of female WBB coaches. Jesus, again, creep factor meter was pegging.

In WBB stats

Bree hall is several attempts shy of qualifying to be ranked in 3 pt %. However if she were qualified she would be 3rd nationally at 48.00%
#2 is shooting 48.14%. I’m sure you know who is #1.

She's been playing great. I have some amazing numbers on Bree, but don't want to post them 2 hours before the game. Scared I might jinx her. lol

At Van Lith's size, she would be fighting it out with Tessa Johnson to be the fourth guard. With Tessa's size advantage, I may prefer her over HVL although the latter has the experience.

:(. I thought something was up with her. I couldn’t find her in any of the pics from the plane ride or practice today. Pretty sure she and Collin Murray Boyles are an item. She better not have mono ;)

Please let that not be the illness. I heard he's still recovering from mono and we haven't even seen him at full strength yet.

Very tough shooting quarter of play for the Gamecocks as they shot 5-19 (.263) from the field and 0-8 from behind the 3-pt. line. They still somehow lead however, 13-12 after one period....

Both teams still shooting poorly for the game - South Carolina shot better marginally, if 5-16 (.313) can be referred to as "better", but Auburn shot worse at 4-18 (.222), as the Gamecocks grew their lead to five at 27-22 at the half.

Youngsters are leading the way for USC, with Ashlyn Watkins having 8 pts on 3-4 shooting, 10 rebounds, 3 blocks and 2 steals in 17 minutes. Also freshman Milaysia Fulwiley scored 8 pts as well on 3-9 shooting.

Auburn's defense notwithstanding, the Gamecocks got plenty of good open looks at the basket in the 1st half, but just struggled to hit them in the middle. Hopefully they break out of that schneid in the 2nd stanza......

Gamecocks found their game a little bit in the 3rd Quarter, shooting 8-14 (.571) for the period, as they lead 48-35 through 3 quarters.

Ashlyn Watkins - starting in place of Chloe Kitts who is out with an undisclosed illness - is having a career game with 12 pts, a career-best already 14 rebounds, 4 blocks and 3 steals in 27 minutes....

Gamecocks end up shooting 18-32 (.563) and 4-8 (.500) from the 3-pt. line in the 2nd half after shooting abysmally in the 1st half, and finish with 42% shooting for the game, which looks far more respectable than it mostly was. They win the game 76-54 to improve to 20-0, (8-0). Auburn falls to 14-7, (3-5).

Ashlyn Watkins had a career game, with 14 pts on 5-6 shooting, 15 rebounds, 5 blocks and 3 steals, in her first start as a Gamecock filling in for a sick Chloe Kitts.

Fulwiley added 15 pts on 6-13 shooting, with 2 boards, 2 steals and 1 block. Cardoso started off cold in the 1st half, but hit on her final 4 shots to finish with 13 pts on 5-11 shooting, with 6 boards and 3 blocks. Raven Johnson chipped in with 10 pts on 4-11 shooting, with 6 assists, 5 rebounds, and 2 steals.....

Leave it to Arkansas to lay an egg. But good night overall, and I think you predicted our game would be a 20 point victory.

I did predict a 20 point victory 🎉🎉

There are a lot of teams in this league that you just don’t know which team is getting off the bus. Even us, totally different team in the second half
