12. LSU (3-2): Surprising win over Michigan and then came back down to earth. Waters will shoot them into games that they'll have no business being in this year, and their frontcourt is solid, but they don't have the defense to compete consistently yet.

Win over Michigan not surprising at all, Michigan is a mediocre team, so are we.

We lost Brandon Sampson at the start of the ND Disaster, would have had a much better shot of beating Marquette with him. We lost him for the next month so we might be screwed vs. some not so great teams. Without him our defense has been truly a disaster, not to mention his offense picked up tremendously vs. last season as well. We're a team that cant afford to lose even 1 difference maker.
