Yea - it's not been a great start to the year in the big games. Luckily not many bad losses, but the non-conference really helped bump everyone in the league up 1-2 seed lines. Not gonna get that bounce this year.

Rest of the week (Torvik)

Alabama vs #3 Illinois (N) (Chicago)

State vs #80 Kansas St (N)

Carolina vs #75 Butler (N)

Georgia vs #102 Xavier (N)

Carolina vs #55 Northwestern (N)



Hopefully some of us can play well over Thanksgiving in various tournaments.

Arkansas lost by 3 to this MSU team at their house. Tough place to play.

If this is what we got for 22 million Pope, Mitch, and even the pope in the vatican needs to be fired.

I like the thought that the money gets siphoned to stoops and the football team purchases ex nfl players and gets them additional eligibility from the ncaa

Kentucky being bad is a double whammy for the conference because they steal away impact players from the rest of the league and then proceed to suck with them.

Updated with the Kentucky outcome.

Over 30% of the OOC games we’ll play as a league prior to March are already in the books. Still no bad losses, but this is not a great start.

Haven't watched KYs games - is the issue the shots just aren't dropping?

He's literally listing the KenPom Top 100. Not hard to understand.

Maybe go watch your team struggle with Winthrop. I’m literally just listing out Top 100 KenPom games played.

Auburn was a 7.5 point dog and lost by 1 point to #1 Houston at a neutral site and dropped out of the coaches poll. I'm interested how the same "coaches" rank Arkansas after beating a 22 point dog by 1 at home.

The coaches will see what everyone else sees.

Like CCNY, Auburn had their time in the sun and are backing to being Auburn.

It's Tuesday. They will all have forgotten by the next poll. All they'll see is that we didn't lose.
