uh-oh!!!!!!!!!!
the darksiders worst nighmares are materializing.
It's a shame that it took a skirmish with MSU and the threat of their coach losing his job for this team to finally "come together". But I'm not complaining. It just goes to show you how good this team can be; plus it sounded like Vandy helped us a bunch.
A Mississippi State win today could give the Hogs a really favorable matchup in the SEC tournament (South Carolina, then Vandy again). Anyone going to Atlanta now?
This was a good win for Stan as much as anyone. If the hogs can win at least two in the SEC tourney, it would mean another 20 win season, and at least a chance to be included in the big dance. I'm still not sure it would be enough to get in, but it might enable Stan to keep his job for another year. I think 3 wins, the hogs will get both.
