Whatever. The sins of the Gang of 88 far outpace the sins of Nixon or Richard Spenser. The only reason why you aren't man enough to make that claim is because you would feel like you were betraying your fellow members of the North Carolina Democrat party. And there is nothing wrong with Stephen Miller unless you like being an antisemite. You bore me, family destroyer. Moving on.
eCat, good luck with the Bulldogs tonight.
Rat, your Bearcats are fucked tonight.
There will not be a higher scoring game tonight that what the nation will witness at Dr Naismith's arena in Kansas.
Utah State and San Diego State are both fighting tonight for the March madness rich Mountain West.
The Gang of 88 may have been a bunch of dipshits, but let's not compare them to someone who committed treason to win a Presidential election and pulled off a litany of dangerous, illegal shenanigans in office like Nixon or someone who furthered the cause of white supremacy with a desire to destroy our nation like Spenser.

He's in a weird limbo zone where he can't be fired but can't win a title either.

Kentucky has more wins over 10 net teams than anyone else
more quad 1 wins that any other SEC team
and yet we won't win the SEC regular season, the ceiling is probably making it to the SEC championship game, and maybe the elite 8.
I think we are the best team in the nation, but that team only shows up once a week.

Wife and I watch (on average) 6 hours of college hoop a night.
IMHO, Kentucky has the best frosh in the nation. And its not even close. Are you the best team in the nation? I wouldn't go that far.
All the best teams this year, are flawed. Kansas may have the best starting 5 in all of college basketball. Ask the UConn players and they may grudgingly say that. Problem is, Kansas has ZERO bench. BYU exposed that reality last night.
Kentucky has the most talented frosh in college basketball. Problem is, they are frosh. So you have no consistency.
Arizona has the most NBA players in college hoop. Problem is, they are arrogant and do NOT play as a team. Ask me how I know.
Purdue is awesome but take away Edey, and they are, just mediocre.
UNC is awesome but the ACC is pussy this year. So they feeding off of shitty teams.
Only UConn and Houston are awesome and get it done pretty much every night against quality opponents. But even they have flaws. They just have less flaws than the other awesome teams.

We watch pretty much every Pac-12 and Mountain West game. And we are watching all the Big-XII games now.

BYU went on a 45-27 run after this.
Hunter Dickenson should have went to Duke.

Kansas losing at home, means exactly what it means when Arizona lost to Washington State at home. You are not elite. You are a flawed team. And BYU found the flaw.
Pretty much all the best teams have major flaws this year. More than 140 basketball game (this year) were "bad losses" for the supposedly great team. Now losing to BYU is not all that bad (BYU will likely play in March.) But even the great teams are very mortal this year. Anyone could win the National Championship with that kind of disorganization.

All the experts are wrong. fuck them. MY list is correct.
- #1 UConn
- #2 Houston
- #3 Purdue
- #4 Arizona
- #5 UNC
- #6 Kentucky
- #7 Creighton
- #8 Tennessee
- #9 Washington State
- #10 Utah State
I rank them based on how well I expect each will do in the tourney. Assuming that they don't play either other during the tournament, I expect all of them to make the round of 32. Saying all 10 make the sweet sixteen is asking way too much.

So how's the white savior for UK doing? The kid whose debut was so spectacular that it brought Crotch out from under his rock to post a video of it? Haven't heard a whole lot about the kid since then...

If you’re referring to Reed Sheppard, I wish he’d crawl back under that rock. He had an incredible game vs Mississippi State and is a projected lottery pick. I’ve seen him in the top 5 picks in recent mocks.

Michigan can lose basketball games. That is not a problem.
Losing by 30 because you are out-athleted by New Jersey State University should be an offense so severe that it justifies firing the HC.

Rutgers has two of the top three recruits in the Class of 2024 committed for next season. They’re about to out-athlete a whiole lotta teams.
