OP is one of the worst basketball question posts I've seen here. Hate to say that, bud, but it's true.
First, the out of conference is pretty strong. Second, we have yet to lose on the road in SEC play in over a season of play. That's enormous. Third we are still undefeated in SEC play overall. I don't think this team is built well enough offensively to have the kind of wins that we did last year, but we might actually be built a little bit better for postseason play. We excel offensively in the paint, and we rebound the ball (particularly offensively) very well. Defensively we do not foul a ton, which means that tournament games, which are usually dogfights, we are built to have success. I like this team.
Also, last year's team definitely grew and progressed as the year wore on, which was a testament to Wade's coaching. I still say Aleva screwed us out of a final four with that suspension bullcrap. I have no reason to doubt that Wade will be able to keep refining this team throughout the season and have them in great position come tourney time.

No doubt. Always humorous to see that on here.

The ball movement during this winning streak has been night and day compared to the beginning of the season. If we can improve the shot selection some more and cut down on the silly turnovers, this team can make a little noise. Turnovers are going to happen, but we've got to stop having so many bad, unforced turnovers.
