No, you're an idiot.

UF started 17-0. USCe started 16-0 then got blown out, which is 16 wins in 17 games.

Florida also played much tougher competition, which also makes it more impressive.

That's not even accurate. We started 15-0, then lost to bama.

If I had meant "how many teams have started 15-0 or better" I would have written that. You're just stupid. Like I already said, it's in the thread title.

So then you started 15-0

Florida started 17-0

Florida started better and had more impressive wins. Their SOS wasn't above #170

18 games. I don't know what else to tell you, that I already have mentioned. Also, I never asked to compare their SOS, RPI or anything like that, just record and when was the year that they did it. You should just stop kicking this rock.

17-0 start from UF is better than what your team has had this season.

On top of that UF had a tough schedule.

Not only is A&M leading the SEC at 6-0 but also the Big 12 at 3-0. You can bet damn sure if we beat ISU next weekend were claiming both conference titles.

Right on, that would be y'all's first Big12 title, right?

We went 28-3 in 2008 and played the #1 SOS in the country in the regular season.

Games against Memphis, Xavier, Western Kentucky, West Virginia, Gonzaga, Temple, Texas and Ohio State in non-conference play.

Seven of those teams finished in the top 37 on KenPom.

Is it just me, or is anybody else sensing impending doom?

In hoops? Sure. We didn't get one in 16 years in a very good bball conference. But we still have 16 titles. What's USC's excuse for only having 6?

202 I believe is their current RPI.

Just stating facts. No judgments.

Better than any UT start I can find. They started 16-1 in 07-08.

UT was 2-1 against top 20 teams during that stretch. How has USCe done against ranked teams so far?

We'll let you know when we play one. Everyone talking trash about the SOS and not saying anything about the majority of the SEC being a reason why our SOS is so weak.

ETA: Great job against Vandy.

IN 1998, we started out real awesome. Not sure it was 17-1 awesome but 11-5 in the conference, 23-8 and got a #3 seed in the tourney. Then proceeded to lose in the first round to Richmond.


Wait, that was South Carolina.

Ummm....Your OOC SOS is 254...overall your SOS is 160...So if it wasn't for the SEC, your schedule would be much worse.

The league isn't why your SOS is weak...

Fact: half of our OOC games were against teams with a higher RPI than State and Mizzou who we play twice bringing our SOS down that much further.

Fact: four of those teams have higher RPI's than Mizzou, Tenn, State, LSU, and Arkansas.

Am I saying the SEC is worse than our OOC games? No, but the ones with terrible RPI's happen to be the exact one's we play twice, not doing our SOS any favors.

That was a great season for the Vols ... I watched a lot of those games. Congrats. It was, I think, your first conference title in something like 40 years? Bruce's fourth season at the helm ... great season, it really was.

SCAR finished 10-6 in the East that year too ... we split the East, remember? Or was that the next year, 2008-2009? I can't remember. Was that the year half your basketball team was arrested for dope and weapons charges? Anyways, y'all had a couple of great runs in the NCAA tourney during that span ... I hope we can do that soon.

2008 ... you say? Did Pearl and the Vols end-up being placed on probation for that class?

Y'all ended-up paying dearly for that little run by Pearl ... unjustly probably, at least IMHO. I dunno, I never understood the whole thing.
