It kinda sucks now that there is more parity in the SEC that there is no longer a tournament. I'm incredibly unhappy about this. I dont know how the players and coaches feel, but as a fan i want the tournament back... I like it without the tournament because it makes every match more important and makes the conference tougher.

Basketball, sure, because of the money made on TV games. But in volleyball, all you're doing is downplaying the importance of being good all year. Just be good for a few days.

(FWIW i do think they should re-seed between rounds to help give the #1 team a bigger advantage) also a-mac, your sig sign reminds me, whats with the mario noises when that one chick serves (angie? or was it kelsey?) and the ruffio stuff when rhian serves?

The Mario Bros. tune that the Gator faithful are chanting comes from when the character "Bowser" enters the video game.

also a-mac, your sig sign reminds me, whats with the mario noises when that one chick serves (angie? or was it kelsey?) and the ruffio stuff when rhian serves? The kids who sit behind were trying to think of what to do when Bowers served and couldn't come up with anything so somehow they came up with the idea of calling her Bowser instead of Bowers. So thats why we we do that song. We will also sometimes say: "She's king of the Mushroom Kingdom....BOWSER!!!" Yet, Bowser was never King of The Mushroom Kingdom. As for Rhian, last year she had a fauxhawk (like a mohawk but she still had hair on the sides and it sort of like Rufio's hair in Hook (although his was crazier). The Mario Bros. tune that the Gator faithful are chanting comes from when the character "Bowser" enters the video game. Actually, Bowser isn't in that level its the Underworld 1 theme. The Bowser level theme would be too hard to do.

Uhh, also, I thought the SEC tournament was awesome. It does take away a little bit of the importance of the year, but because of seeding most of the teams get to where they should. The SEC tournament was a fun experience to go to and we will all miss it this year.

I think the South Carolina / Florida rematch tomorrow night will be the 'match of the week' for some of us.
