@BIODAWGSPORTBOI I should have said leading scorer and leading rebounder instead of "top two". Top player is an opinion and bring a lot of emo. Leading scorer and leading rebounder is fact.
@CbbSuitWatch I try to keep my posts fact-based to limit the emotional responses. I failed on this one. What I should have said was leading scorer and leading rebounder instead of top two players since "top" is an opinion.
@CbbSuitWatch 22-11/10-8, NCAA tournament team last year. So respectable but their two best players transferred. So, I can't disagree with your overall assessment.
@jsjmuse90 Good 1st half, great defense but relied on 3s on offense. Got up 17 and relaxed and UCA got as close as 6 in the 2nd half. Defense was gone. Poor communication, too much gambling.
Offense still a working in progress still trying to dribble through zones, especially Miika.
@SeminOLDschool Based on current FPI rankings, the SEC played P4 non-conference teams with an average ranking of 42.
Big 12: 46
ACC: 49
Big Ten: 55
This is even worse than it looks since the SEC has a much lower avg FPI and they cant play themselves. Other conferences are dodging, not SEC.
@SeminOLDschool SEC victories over P4 non-conference teams this year have a higher FPI than any other conference and they have significantly more wins than any other conference. But, don't let facts get in the way of your conspiracies.
@TheCFBAdvocate Butler played in the championship game in 2011 and the final four in 2010.
They beat Virgina Commonwealth in 2011 final 4. George Mason in 2006, and Loyola Chicago 2018 also made final 4.
@Scot8915@geauxcrimson North Texas beat Tulsa by 1 point.
Arkansas beat Tulsa 34 to 6.
Either Arkansas is a really good team like North Texas or both are not very good.
You can pick.
Just ran the numbers myself to confirm.
Yep, in 75 games at Kentucky, Mark Pope has trailed by double digits in 27 games, by 15-plus in 20 games, by 20-plus in 13 games. Brutal.
