Duke will move up in the rankings following their loss
I was far more impressed with Auburn than I expected. They have a very talented, athletic and experienced team. Broome is going to be a real problem for any team. I'm just wondering what the people on this board think when it comes to our chances of beating Auburn and how we should play them.

Uconn and Duke with 2 losses already.

Of all the past 1 and even 2 seeds, how many of them had 2 losses before December? It has to be like 1 or 2 out of 480. Not that they can't do it, but both Duke and Uconn have dug themselves a hole. Uconn has clearly taken a step back or two, and Duke needs these marquee wins because the ACC is going to be trash. Duke will have a win over Arizona and has a chance to beat UNC twice (something they have recently not been good at).. but that's about it.

The SEC with UK, Auburn, Alabama, Tennessee, Texas and Ark are gonna be the best its been in a long time. Heck Florida, TAM and the Mississippi's could beat some other conference contenders.

I didn't watch any of the Auburn game. Alabama plays athletic tough D, Nelson not elite big man but Alabama can score form outside and inside and Sears gives veteran smarts and toughness. If Auburn is better than Alabama as someone said, those are two tough *** teams to face.

UConn has to play Dayton today. Dayton gave Iowa St. all they could handle and then some. UConn could very easily leave MIT in last place and with 3 losses.

I agree with you. I respect them but I don't fear Auburn. They play similar to us, but I think they play out of control at times. (More so than us.) Same for Alabama.

It's really too bad that after Hunter kicked the Duke player in the face that a slap fight didn't break out and both teams were ejected and the game and their entire seasons forfeited.
I was hoping for an all out brawl. KU is known for those.

True, Pearl has them playing pretty well and playing hard. Going to be hard to defend, as they take & make a lot of crazy shots.
Williams is going to have to step up big time against Broome.

That's called moving up the rankings like The Jeffersons. One more cupcake to move up rankings then the season actually gets started....
Clemson and Gonzaga road games will be the true test of this teams shooting and defense.

If they pass those tests then well..... You know the drill lol

I think its cool that Houston is consistently good again - they were fun in the 80s

Same with Auburn and Alabama - we had epic battles with both through the SEC (+ LSU) when i was a kid

Having them ranked so high is fun but i HATE having to replay SEC teams in the NCAA T

SEC looking stout - without a doubt!

P.S. - Is Cooper Flagg still 17?
I did not know he was 17 but I was told he played some type of game with pros last year and they were all impressed with him who does he play for?

I am no fan of either team, but I thought the F2 was excessive.

You didn't want to make Houston into some childish nickname?

Na I'll give them a break this time since they haven't done anything good since the 80's untill recently. Well now that I think about it how about Usetobeston?

I don't know ...

It must be a really good NBA G league team?

Heard he has a teammate with erect nipples watching him play?

Was that the jackimoffski kid? Or am I just getting confused?
