We have a number of good wins and a solid loss. You can’t expect to play 5 top ten teams in the preseason. We got one, then got a bunch of 15-25 type teams.

Neither is our Kansas or Texas wins.

The BYU win is beginning to look like our only statement win.

The current NET, which the selection committee uses:

BYU is #9
Illinois is #10
Kansas is #17
Florida is #22

Huskies have plenty of out of conference "statement" wins. How many do you want?

Let's not forget a game we were winning within 2 minutes without two starters against the number 1 team in the country. That is a high value loss.

Otherwise, we are really looking at about 7-8 teams that we would consider "quality" and we got one of them.

  • Florida was 14th in KenPom when we beat them and 13th now. (They ended up winning that game last night by 15).
  • Illinois was 13th day of and 9th now.
  • BYU was 18th then and 10th now.
  • Kansas was 20th then and 17th now.
  • Texas from 50th to 53rd. But they're a lot worse in the NET (73rd), so that game is on the verge of falling to Q3.

I assumed Florida got blow out last night after reading posts on this board.

How about #18 Georgia?

How about I posted that at halftime in a 1 point game where I wanted Florida to win. Do I really need to explain that to you?

Apologies, you posted about UF losing to mizzou after this so I thought the complaint was lodged before the Georgia game

Hence why I said the win was aging badly. Top 10 teams shouldn’t lose to Missouri. Beating Georgia was good.

Not that complicated.

I’m surprised that no one gets hurt with the bench being at a lower level than the court.
 
Straight up disaster in Lexington with Kentucky losing to Mizzou. $22M for a roster that could genuinely miss the tourney 💀

Guess who their best win is?

St John's!

Jonnies are lucky they beat Butler, because if they lost they'd likely be sitting on bubble status. A neutral win against Baylor is barely a resume. Ole Miss is terrible.

Watching Santa Clara vs Gonzaga and Santa Clara's "GLeague to college" player is arguably the worst player on the floor through one half.

It's an interesting wrinkle that's missed in the conversation around these guys. Most of them are 3-4 years post high school and there's a reason they're looking to move down a level. Feel like most of them are not going to be difference makers like the European pro pipeline has been
 
That looks like a below average intramural team.

I stand by what I said, Kansas plays a lot better without Daryn Peterson and they would be better off without him.

Its a weird case for me because without him I don't think they're all that talented to do much of anything of significance in the long run but with him they continue to look all out of sorts. They just gotta hope he can continue to string games together and the team figures it out.
 
Michigan down 2 with 1:11 to go
 
Wisconsin up 88-84 and has missed the front end of the one and one foul shot on back to back possessions
