We are considered the best basketball conference and we have only seven teams in their brackets. Absurd.

It is because ESPN is beating the SEC drum 24/7/365

10-7 Auburn being comfortably in as a 9 feels like a reach on the first two

They haven’t lost to any bad teams but you gotta win games at some point

Also not sure how they have A&M in the projected field, their best win is Auburn lol

auburn is doing the michigan state strat where they get pummeled in most “big” games but get carried by their crazy noncon rating but they’re in trouble if they can’t win their next 2

a&m is iffy but iowa is crazier to me since they don’t even look good against most of the non buy games :sob:

Iowa looked decent against Purdue, but that says more to me about Purdue than it did Iowa

If iowa plays like that their last 2 games, or against Indiana…they have a shot and probably go 2-2, maybe even 3-1.

But I agree it also says a lot about Purdue too. Stirtz really didnt play well and they almost got clipped lol

I don’t see us losing anymore games.

Our Away schedule is pretty brutal. No loss @ Tech, @ Iowa State, @ BYU?
Zona at home? Bold.

Will say they played well against ISU and Purdue. You can throw UCLA in there too if that’s worth anything, solid quad 2 at home I guess.

But other than that? Yeah it’s crazy.

Borderline disrespectful. But hey, it is what it is. It’s possible!

Was it a 15 point run? 17 point run you guys went on to open the game first time we played up there? F that, that’s a crazy gym. I don’t even wanna watch the Feb game fr.

Yeah I think it was 17-2 at the under 16:00.

Fwiw im on record saying that’s gonna be the hottest ticket in the Otzelberger era.

You’ll get the peak Hilton. Which is what it’s all about

their metrics not being just healthy but great for an at-large team should save them but you’d think for a barely top 250 noncon and best win being a UCLA there’d be a harsher penalty but maybe thats bc we aren’t even a month away from that teaser bracket being out yet lol

Maybe the Big East should be complaining about iowa lol.

Credit to McCollum. He scheduled well in build mode, i guess?? Lol
