I think they're gonna be decent. Maybe an NIT bubble team at best if things start to click or them. I'm expecting a .500 team from them tho. A .500 type team is always gonna have really good games and really bad games. I probably should've said "pretty decent" team.

Even if Memphis isn't a very good team, Bama kicked their arse with mostly B team guys. Even Lawson Schafer was getting buckets.

While Memphis is not a very good team, it was a very good win for us since it was mostly the new comers playing.

I loved the interview with Ingram after the game. Question was how did he think we were better. His answer"we can score."

It's not up yet.

Lipscomb hosts Morehead State at 4 if anyways interested. You can stream it on ESPN3

Lipscomb won a fairly close game. I had it on in the background while working on some stuff. We ought to dominate the glass. Their guard Garrison Matthews can really shoot. He was their offense the first half. Shut him down, and I think we handily win.

They are a solid team though. We won't be able to sleep walk to a win.

Just left Morehead State at Lipscomb. Garrison Matthews is a heck of a player/scorer. Now has 62 points & 8 3’s in two game.

Surprised they would put Bama in front of A&M after what they did to West Virginia.

What we did under the circumstances was impressive. What Texas A&M did without their top 10 NBA draft pick was ungodly. Makes no sense that we leap-frogged them.

Considering you're supposed to take into account a team's performance for this year: Alabama is ranked about right, A&M should be top 10, and UK should be a fringe top 25 team until they prove otherwise. They struggled against Utah Valley and won by 4 against Vermont at Home. And we all know how brutal officiating is against the away team in Rupp.

Yeah, they aren't correct. The poll hasn't come out, but there apparently weren't any changes as far as anyone moving in or out of the top 25. A&M moved to 16 and UK down to 7. That makes more sense.

Here's a video of the full poll. Alabama isn't ranked. A&M moved up to 16 LINK

You know, other than the fact that West Virginia is still ranked...
