Man it's hard when a basketball school like Auburn holds you to such high standards.

Hey football season is coming up, you think you guys will manage to score a touchdown this year?

Yeah, all this Canadian team has done is be their perennial Kentucky and is the defending Canadian champion.

2 years ago, Final Four Wiskey played them and got their arse beat. Last year, it was Wichita State. Carleton makes a habit of whipping American teams but good. There's no shame in losing to them. They'd beat Auburn's arse too. And they'd probably give Kentucky and Florida all they could handle.

They beat Wichita State by 25 in one of these games last year.

Yes, Minnesota. Carlton is a fairly decent D-III school with 2000 students. It's known for its diversity...students' ancestors came from all parts of Sweden, Norway, and Germany.

Also, the university has 25,000 undergrad students. They've won 13 of the last 15 Canadian championships.

So, another swing and a miss.

"Carleton specializes in just this kind of Canadian experience, luring NCAA teams into its gym and exposing their summer weak spots. The Ravens are the dominant team in Canada’s college ranks and their roster is stocked with fourth- and fifth-year players. They ran their plays to perfection, sliced up WSU with the pick and roll and used FIBA’s 24-second clock and rules allowing physical play to their advantage."

Sounds like we weren't the first program to take the bait.

I personally think bama basketball is being overrated.

I think it will take another year or two before we see bama as an upper echelon SEC school. I feel the same about Auburn. Auburn and bama aren't bringing in one and dones like UK. Those kids need to figure out how to play at the college level.

Our best player is going to be a 1 and done.

But sure, we won't be Kentucky. Should be a tournament team. If not, it's a failure.
