I know it doesn’t matter for shite but still. Florida is undefeated. KenPom has them ahead by 3 net points.

Alabama best wins: Houston, Illinois. Alabama losses: Oregon, Purdue.

Florida best wins: Wake Forest, UNC. Florida losses: none


Alabama has better wins and a harder schedule but Florida should still have the edge. Idk though


Edit: 71 downvotes and gumps mad in the comments. They have to be superior in every aspect

You’re melting about an 18 point difference in the AP Poll in the last week of December before SEC play even begins.

I guess not with the people watching basketball.

Doesn't matter. We play each other soon enough.

So UNC counts as a "best" win for Florida but not Alabama?

It makes zero sense for both Alabama to be ahead of Florida and Tennessee to be ahead of auburn. Either a significantly harder schedule matters or it doesn't

Florida has played a light schedule. We'll see how legit they are Satirday when they come to Rupp Arena.

Why does an LSU fan care about where Bama and UF are ranked in a basketball poll in December?

Unlike football, you get rewarded for playing a difficult schedule. You will see teams with multiple loses ahead of undefeated teams.

You didn't notice duke with 2 losses being ahead of Florida too? Why not ask that question, oh because you're not obsessed with duke like bama.
Just goes to show your not worried about Florida being behind bama just that you like trolling anything Alabama.

We don't have to be, it just often turns out that way.

Florida and Bama fighting over relevance in MBB during football season. What a time to be alive?!

Wrong. It’s an LSU fan obsessing over a Bama team ranking. Nothing new here

Happy with our start but it makes total sense to me that they're ranked higher and none of it matters until SEC play.
