So, we’re down to the last couple of games of the regular season, Vanderbilt is 14-14, 6-10 in the SEC, much better than the last few years but still not exactly where we want to be in that we’re not making the NCAA Tournament this year. It’s definitely a positive sign but also possibly fleeting what with this probably being Scotty Pippen’s final game at Memorial Gym. (Some still hold out hope that he will return; I, however, do not.)
Tonight’s opponent, Florida, desperately needs a win — sitting at 18-11 and with a resume that puts them squarely on the bubble and staring at a probable loss on Saturday when Kentucky comes to town.
