Despite a slow November and December, the Bulldogs roared through the 2013 – 2014 conference schedule in historic fashion, winning 20 games for only the 12^th time ever, finishing 2^nd or higher in the SEC for the 4^th time ever, and sweeping four regular-season series for the first time in 24 years. The Dawgs then reached the semi-finals of the SEC Tourney before losing to Kentucky and the second round of the NIT before losing to Louisiana Tech.

Despite the unfortunate departure of the versatile and talented Brandon Morris, it seems easy to predict the starting five for the 2014 – 2015 Dawgs.

Not seems, is.
