Apparently, Bruce Pearl has found a good combination with the Awbren team. They are 10-2 with back-to-back wins over Oklahoma and UConn on the road. I'm hoping they are peaking too early, and we haven't hit our stride yet.
The barn has won some close games against big name teams that are not playing well. They barely beat 3-7 Mercer. Oklahoma is 6-5 and UConn is 4-5.
FWIW the barn SOS is 130 compared to our 65.
Not disputing that at all, but I don't think, at least at this point, that we could beat Ok and UConn at their home courts, consecutively.
