Guesses on what we will be ranked today in AP/coaches?

Pretty wild week. I have no idea how voters will evaluate some of the 1 loss teams that had really strong SOS

 

[omghulkhands]

Oregon beats the gumps 83-81

Tamba w/12 for Oregon too

 

[kckempf]

3? Behind Auburn and Kansas, fighting with Kentucky for votes I have to imagine.

 

[CornbreadVol]

As things currently stand on kenpom, our next three games are Q3, Q2, and Q1

Can’t remember the last season it felt like there were this many upsets of top 5-10 teams before December. Sounds like the pre-season pollsters are as wrong as they have ever been.

Huh?

1. Kansas, 2. Auburn, 3. Tennessee, 4. Kentucky

Poll doesn't come out until tomorrow, though, I don't believe.

Awaka helped us maintain an inside presence offensively in the limited minutes he gave us.

I’m not 100% confident that we can consistently play through Okpara if shots are not falling from the perimeter. That’s the concern, especially going into SEC play. Again, hoping he’s able to give us efficient offense on that front.

If you don’t think Awaka would’ve helped us then that’s cool with me, doesn’t really matter at this point. I’m still subject to expressing an opinion and open to changing it if I’m presented with evidence / stats that proves otherwise.

So far, the difference this year is that Milicic can get to the rim off the dribble. That’s an element that we’ve been missing aside from DK occasionally doing it. We scored 64 points in the paint against Austin Peay and Okpara had 12. Obviously, the SEC will be tougher, but we’ve got more ways to score this year IMO.

We will be number 3. Come tomorrow polls

We will be number 3. Come tomorrow polls

We are 2 in KP and 4 in TR. so 3 sounds about right.

We’ll have to see how much blue blood bias there is.

Poor, poor Hurley. He’s going to have to pay to get anyone to play his whiney ass…

I doubt his fanbase enjoys that news.

Can’t stand Hurley. I might even root for UK if they played them.

What an insufferable prick. That guy thinks he's God's gift to college basketball. Hard to believe his own fanbase even likes him. He better hope the wins don't ever run out because his public relations decorum certainly won't win him any bonus points.

Not even close to standard. He’s high-level.
