UCLA is obviously the best of the bunch and your blurb does a good job of expounding upon that. Looks like a legit Sweet 16 type team. Lonzo Ball is very, very impressive.
Minnesota has already beaten Arkansas and they look like a bubble type team. I think it's a very interesting matchup and would be a quality win for the league if Vandy could pull it off.
None of the others look like legit at large tourney teams to me, though UAB has a good shot of winning Conference USA.
Memphis is probably the best of the rest of the group and the OM/Memphis matchup should be a good one. I am not sold on Memphis, but they do have some talent. Probably an NIT type team.
UAB should win Conference USA. It's good scheduling by Pearl and should be a tough game for a young Auburn team, especially on the road.
Georgia Tech is clearly the next best opponent, but they are not in a good spot right now in Josh Pastner's first year. They are probably about even with Tennessee in terms of rebuilding, if not slightly behind, so it too should be a good game, but this team will likely really struggle in ACC play.
Western Kentucky is horrible in Rick Stansbury's first year and will struggle even in Conference USA if they don't improve greatly.
Austin Peay brings up the rear as an OVC bottom dweller and one of the worst 50 teams in America.

Basketball means nothing until March.
I wish they would push football back to an October start. I'd like more of the season to take place during cold weather.

If you make the Vols logo slightly smaller it will fit on the same line

Tell that to someone whose team didn't make the tournament because of OOC losses.

Lol OOC games are pretty much the deciding factor on getting into the tourney
