- 0:00another uh road loss for for Stephen
- 0:02Pearl and the Auburn basketball Tigers.
- 0:04And now there's uh there's absolutely
- 0:07zero room for error um at six and nine
- 0:10in SEC play. Look, you you got very
- 0:14winnable home games against um Old Miss
- 0:17and LSU before a road trip to Tuscaloosa
- 0:20to finish off the regular season. At a
- 0:22minimum, you're going to have to be
- 0:23eight and 10 to to have any chance to
- 0:25make the NCA tournament outside of
- 0:27winning the SEC tournament. Um, look,
- 0:29these are two games you should win.
- 0:31They're at home. Old Miss and LSU both
- 0:33struggling. It's not going to be easy
- 0:34for this team because just nothing has
- 0:36been easy for this team outside really
- 0:38other than other than Florida and
- 0:40Arkansas, which is crazy. Um, those are
- 0:43probably the two two games that have
- 0:45been the easiest ones for this team in
- 0:46terms of the way they played. That shows
- 0:49you the potential that they've got. Um,
- 0:51they got the potential to go out and win
- 0:52and beat anybody on the schedule. Um,
- 0:55unfortunately, they've been too
- 0:56inconsistent. um defensively especially
- 1:00and allowing people just to to make
- 1:02threes and get a bunch of wide open
- 1:03looks and you cannot do that and be
- 1:05successful in any league, but you can't
- 1:07do that and be successful in the South
- 1:08Eastern Conference. There's just no way
- 1:10around it. And so now you look and go,
- 1:12look, you know what you got to do? Um
- 1:14you got to win a pair of home games and
- 1:17you got to get back to 89 in league play
- 1:19and you got to get yourself in position
- 1:20to go into Tuscaloosa to have a chance
- 1:23to to absolutely 100% secure it. um
- 1:26because you do that, if you win these
- 1:27last three, you're you're in no no ifs,
- 1:29ands or buts about it. But if you lose
- 1:32one of these two at home, then you're in
- 1:33serious serious trouble. And so, um you
- 1:36know, for this team, can you get some
- 1:37consistent play defensively?
- 1:40Can you execute defensively? Can you
- 1:42avoid the laws on offense? Um you know,
- 1:45too many of those for this team right
- 1:46now. So, lots of things to look at for
- 1:48this basketball team, but now it's must
- 1:50win and no no questions about it. Uh go
