According to the National College Rankings...

MIT #7, Northwestern #12

Vandy #15 Nationally.
Florida #47
Georgia #61
TAMU #70
Alabama #96
Auburn #102
Missouri #103 Tie
Tenn #103 Tie
Oklahoma #108 Tie
S. Carolina #108 Tie
Arizona #121

So if you think the SEC is a bunch of low class unintelligent people, what does that say about Arizona?
I'm not talking about Arizona. Get the sand out of your vagina.

LSU and Kentucky blew it.. but they were great games.

I would skip he post-game interview with the OU player... was embarrassing he is in college. That is where you have to respect players like Ben Simmons and schools like Vandy / Duke, etc. where they always have players who have a firm grasp of the English language.

Well Buddy Heild is from the Bahama's. That's a hell of lot closer to Vandy/Duke and Sec country that it is to Oklahoma.

Not really arguing against them being the best conference but idk how these unbalanced 10 games against probably the 5th best conference makes it "now without question".

How was it unbalanced when the 3 worst teams in the Sec were left out?

I like where UK is headed to... they are only getting better.

I am super siked for next year... been watching our home town boy Malik Monk .. then hearing he will be in the back court with DeAaron Fox... that will be an electrifying back court next year.

Will be interesting if any players stay this year and what that means for them next year with so much talent coming in.
I'm hoping Ulis, Willis and Lee come back, along with the kids on the bench. Briscoe needs to come back. Poy is a SR, and Murray will go top 15. Skal needs money, he's gone

You mean like 47 free throws for Kansas and 22 for Kentucky? I prefer let them play, hate ticky tack, really hate it when it's not called both ways. Shouldn't have mattered. Kansas has a great team, but I like where UK is headed. Half the team fouled out, Briscoe playing on one leg and shooting FT's like Shaq , taking them to OT on their court....we're gonna be a tough put come March

Yes Kentucky was impressive.

Don't misconstrue my quote: I don't like Kansas, and I wanted them to lose. I was pointing out my experience watching my team play there, never getting the calls as they always seem to go to Kansas. It's as if the refs are scared...

Not putting down Kansas in any way, as they are a great basketball program, as evidenced by Self's 11 conference titles.

Same here. I can't think of any team that I would have favored to win there last night. OU has already lost there in OT. Wouldn't be afraid of them on a neutral court in March though

I'm 98% certain South Carolina is 6-2

I also think bama is more competitive then teams like auburn and Tennessee but that's splitting hairs

This is good shit.

The Big 10/ACC should move theirs to the middle of the season.

Yeah it just generates more buzz. But the B1G/ACC need to do a better job of match ups. They got it right with MD/UNC, but why was UVA playing OSU and FSU playing Iowa etc.

Well preseason hype wise FSU and Iowa was a pretty even match up actually. And the game ended up being a doozy.

I thought the BIG10 match ups were pretty good based off how the teams came into the season.

I had more issues with the Gavitt Games. For some reason 2 BE teams sit each year. And Nova was given a home game with Nebraska? No MSU, Wisconsin or Purdue.

I see A&M still plays Big 12 basketball. :thumb:

Nah, we finally broke out of that after we sucked the last few years.

4-0 against the big12 this year :yes:

Just like football our first year away, if we had just stayed in the Big12 we could have won a lot more.

Nope, you'd have won about the same number of games.
