Just curious to see who fans are pulling for Wednesday nite? If Auburn wins, there is a 3 way tie for first place with it being Carolina, Bama, Auburn. Now if Bama wins, we are squarely in 2nd place behind Bama with Auburn having 3 losses and moving to 3rd place.

I'm pulling for Auburn as I like the idea that we need help in the standings since we lost to Bama & GEORGIA AT HOME (Dang that loss is going to come back to bite us I think at the end of the regular season).

What say you?

I see that as a no-lose situation. It's fun either way.

Lots of basketball left to play, however. Both of those teams have some tough games ahead of them, as do we.

Agreed. Don't worry about the other teams. Worry about beating Vandy on Saturday.

Bama needs a loss. We don't play them again and need someone to beat them. Cheering for Auburn.

Fun fact about the regular season championship. There is no tie breaker. If two (or more) teams have the same record at the top, they both win the reg season championship each getting a trophy. The tie breaker is only used for seeding in the tournament. I'd obviously rather win the conference outright, but it's good to know. Been 27 years since an SEC banner in Columbia.
