The best refs in college basketball are the ones where you don’t recognize their name.
If I remember your name as an official, it’s never because of a good reason.
3 Texas
4 Penn State
5 Indiana
These three teams have combined for zero good wins and they’re currently 60 percent of the top 5.
Schedule disparity is a huge problem in the super conference era.

Kentucky football:
- Three straight losses to South Carolina
- Lost two of the last three to Vanderbilt (both at home)
- 2-8 last 10 SEC games
That is regression.
Alabama had elite offensive lines for years. Then ranked last in the SEC in sacks allowed last season. Kentucky hired that offensive line coach (again) after he left without telling anyone two years ago. Wild.
