No it isn't. shite you lost to Western Kentucky last year then proceeded to lap the field in the SEC.

Don't read too much into it. Gaels are not bad and will likely dance.

Yea it is. We played awful, Iona is a solid lower mid-major who will be a #13 or #14 seed.

We've played 2 physical teams/games and played weak and timid in both. If we don't figure that aspect out we're in deep shite starting in about 7 days and going through the end of the season. We don't have anymore pushover games.

No shame in losing to Iona but I’d be concerned about the free throw shooting

Free throw shooting and just kind of accepting the other team dictating the style of the game are both pretty big issues that will pop back up if they aren't fixed.

No it's not. Jeez one loss to a solid mid-major and the doomsaying begins.

This is different from WKU, where Bassey thrashed your front court last year, how, exactly?

Some shite needs fixing. Yeah that's true, but basketball ain't football and you're afforded lots of time to do just that.

143 in KenPom, it happens, but it’s a bad loss for a team shooting for 2-3 seed realistically

It isn't - and that team was playing very poorly but they figured it out. If the WKU team had continued into SEC play we go 7-11. But they fixed things and got better.

This team could do the same thing, but as right now they have some serious issues like last year's team did in the non conference. And unlike last year they have a frickin meat grinder in that OOC. Not a lot of time or cushion to work through things.

Season ain't over or anything, but it's a bad loss and we have some issues. That's all.

Strange I have more faith in CNO to get things straightened out than y'all do.

It's a punch in the mouth loss but the issues Bama has are very fixable.

Haha I'm not saying I don't think they will or won't. They haven't now. And it's a bad loss. That's all, really.

It's November. It's meaningless. Unless you have a disasterous SEC season.

Any update from the guy who robbed his mom as to if bama should still be favored in every game this season?

Not a loss that leaves you feeling warm and fuzzy, but it’s also not going to kill you. Just got to hope it’s a wake up call for guys.
