Worst thing Buzz has ever done is get people on board with this +1 thing.

He did kind of bash Lunardi talking during our game against Vandy

Yeah.

It's clearly resulted in our team's total collapse in conference play ever since he introduced that concept!

I would feel extra extra warm and fuzzy about our tournament chances if we win tonight, but beating Arkansas on the road is tough. Hoping for some magic.

If the players buy into it and they are valuing each game then I am happy!

Bring on the wins like pringles. Just one more!!

Gig'em Ags.

I don't get what creating a complicated plus minus system has to do with focusing on each game. If anything it's making it seem like road games are now bonus games since we're already "+3" and aren't that important.

But whatever, this isn't the thread, KILL EM

Why is this a bad thing?

Obviously the team has used this concept to focus on each game one at a time

Plus we're fans. It's fun to get something from inside the program to latch onto. Pringles anyone?

I'm glad he spelled some sort of analytics out for the team as opposed to the usual coach cliches of "just win and don't worry about what the bracketology's say".

It's kinda annoying from the fans though.

So the game is still tonight, Tuesday?

How long do you want to ignore this user?
You're right. This isnt the thread for it.

I'll be looking later for your thread titled "worst things Buzz has ever done" so you can list his method of counting home game and away game wins and losses using his +/-/no points system at the TOP of that list!

BTHO Arkansas!!! Hope the Piggies' 3-point shooting is as bad and as cold as the weather out there!!!

So far, no announcement to the contrary yet. Considering the effort our team went to getting there, it would be pretty disappointing. If both teams are there, play ball!

I just don't get how it's different from telling the team "Guys, we probably need 12 conference wins to make it." Lord knows I hate to agree with Prop Joe on here, but it's just a complicated way of saying the exact same thing.

I don't get how this +1, -1 system helps you focus on 'one game at a time' any more than that a total number would.

Is

"Even if we win all of our home games, we still need to win three road games, so every opportunity to win is going to matter"

somehow different from

"We're +3 right now, and we can get to Arkansas be +4, so let's lock in" or whatever?

You must love the turkey hats in the student section.

Nah the turkeys are fine. That's like an in-game goal. I get the idea behind a short-term achievable like micro-goal during the course of a game.

Just saw the man who coined that phrase about the Ags, Jimmy Dykes, is on the call for our game tonight along with Karl Ravech and Marty Smith on the sidelines. Good crew!
bobinator

Great... can't wait to hear his made up phrase that nobody has ever used of the game.

"We call this tinfoil defense, it keeps the offense covered but you can shape it to whatever set they're running"

He's mostly fine, but like Fraschilla, he talks too much, let the game breathe a bit.

I like the +1 system because it makes me feel smart and mathy.

I actually think he used "Mother-in-law" defense when he called our first game against Florida a few weeks ago.

To each their own, but Dykes is one of my favorite color analysts.

If I hear "Boom Boom Room" again, it'll be too soon.
