When we lose, we do it big. This list is factoring the average margin of defeat for the whole season, not just conference play. Is it too much to ask to be half way competitive each night instead of this jekyll and hyde crap? Don't have to win them all but at least keep things respectable.

Arkansas           -15.8
Miss State         -11.5
South Car.         -11
LSU                  -10.3
Vanderbilt         -10.2
Auburn              -9.5
Texas A&M         -9.5
Alabama            -8.3
Georgia             -8.2
Ole Miss            -8.1
Kentucky           -7.7
Florida              -6.8
Missouri            -6.4
Tennessee         -6

Embarrassing.  At least we got that top 25 ranking that one week.

I think that was the main goal for this year's team.  Ever since they cracked the top 25 the bear has been having his way for sure.  I guess sometimes you just have to lay there and have a good bleed.

That bear is getting punked playing in mud trying to guard them when they step off the bus.

There's something wrong with this. Blowouts are what good teams do to really bad teams.

Disgusting. This should be posted in the locker room and in the coaches offices.

When we win, which is not often this year, is usually by the 'skin of our teeth'.

I hate when we lose. I hate it on a much greater level when we lose like we have been.

Interesting to note that the two teams with the best margin on this list are the only two teams we have beat thus far. Odd occurrence.

hobhog

The loses haven't been competitive. This team has zero confidence and leadership. That's one mans responsibility.

They apparently don't discuss anything basketball related in their new practice facility.
Post it in the new ADs office.

I posted when MA was hired that everything will be a roller coaster.  You will have great years followed by bad ones.  You will have great games followed by bad ones.  Even within a game, everything is up and down...streaky.

So, if you want him as a head coach, fans will just have to deal with bad and be happy with the good.  There will be NO consistency.

I would NOT be surprised one bit if the Hogs rattle of 5 or 6 straight wins, then lose to someone like Vanderbilt.  then go on a 3 or 4 game losing streak.

However, I will say this.  Mike's teams play a hell of a lot better against teams that they don't play often, i.e., non conference teams and teams they will face in the NCAAT.

What we need to do is lose some more games, by fewer points, and then it won't look so bad...

Logic!
