UK stinking it up and making LSU look really good......not impressed with UK this year....over-rated for sure.Spaceman Spiff wrote:It will be awesome reading tigerdroppings if LSU wins this. Every half decent win they have, they get convinced they're going to the Final Four. Hell, I think they thought they were going when they beat Gardner-Webb by 18. Then, if they have a disappointing loss, they want to fire their coach.

Re: Non Pac 12 thread 2015/16
They look even worse than when they played UCLA. Kentucky is currently 9 but we're the only ranked Pac-12 team? What a joke.

Watch out for A&M though.....they are building a program down there and are good this year....predict them to finish in the top 3 of the SEC....maybe even win it.azcat49 wrote:Victor takes a little pressure off of Simmons along with the SEC is just plain terrible
P.S. Am getting tired of ESPN fawning all over Simmons though..........yes, he's really good but enough already......

Re: Non Pac 12 thread 2015/16
Agree. Watching the close out of this Maryland-Wisconsin game and Diamond Stone is the only dependably firing piston for Maryland against a slow, awful shooting Wisconsin team. Game was mostly back and forth until Maryland started caring with about 7 minutes left.Bangkok Wildcat wrote:Penn State just choked big time.....unimpressed with Maryland EXCEPT Diamond Stone....that guy is a beast.

Re: Non Pac 12 thread 2015/16
Hah! Fantastic finish in Madison. UW storms back for to tie it up by 10 with 22 ticks left. Melo Trimble marches back down court and drains an NBA-long three with 2 sec left. Exciting finish but overall a terribly unmotivated showing for Maryland.

They are my Big Bro's school so have been following then closely. They are good this year..... I think they will finish top 3 in the SEC and have a decent run in the tourney. Gig 'Em Aggies!

Auburn beats Kentucky. ESPN said that Auburn hasn't beaten a ranked team since 2009 and hasn't beaten Kentucky in the last 18 tries.

I see nothing wrong with Calipari sending his players to the locker room early. Court rushing is dangerous for all parties involved.

We couldn't have the team we've had the last two years in a year like this lol.
It's wide open this year. Wide open. If Trier is 100% come March and no more injuries Arizona will have a chance to win it all. Yes you heard that right.
