More because of travel disruption, degenerate gamblers will think they have edge over any dumb little thing.
Yeah, figured we'd be a slight underdog. Is going from 3 to 5 a huge shift in terms of basketball lines?
i feel like this thread needs some idiocy this morning, so i'm debuting my SEC TOMATO rankings Tier 1: Alabama - leaves a bit to be desired early but embarrassing wins and embarrassing losses aren't the same thing. Auburn - nice win over Houston, assuming you think Houston whose star player is now apparently J'Wan Roberts is the Houston we're used to. Pettiford looks like a good get. Kentucky - another analytics guy finding success early, not surprised. Tier 2: Arkansas - same thing as Kentucky last year, which is i think an improvement?? Florida - I literally do not care about Florida basketball until the day Rioux starts playing Tennessee - default Rick Barnes ranking Tier 3: Georgia - I guess Newell is my early favorite for foty Mississippi St - I have literally zero faith in Janz but it's interesting that Tolu Smith is finally gone Ole Miss - fuck Chris Beard Texas - at least their loss was to a power conference team? Tier 4: Texas A&M - same team we've seen for the last 3 years, they'll struggle when Doug or Pat aren't there to give them 50 FTs per game. oh look, Wade Taylor just bricked another 3. Vanderbilt - total vibes based ranking Tier 5: LSU - Will Wade has been gone for 3 years and I'm still loving it Missouri - congrats on breaking the loss streak Oklahoma - Porter Moser is not a sec basketball coach South Carolina - lmao North Florida?
I was trying to figure out why in the hell we were playing Montana, but now I think Barnes just wanted to scout/tap this guy up.
We look pretty good and deep all the sudden, this Golden rumors stuff hopefully doesn't taint what the product is in the court
I think Mike White has a pretty defined ceiling but he isn’t a bad coach at all. Of course a portion of my opinion comes from every fucktard commentator giving him props because they know his dad who has been involved in college athletics forever.
What’s wild is I think Drake has a new coach from D2 who brought half his players with him so a bunch of D2 dudes are 6-0 having beaten Vandy, Miami, and FAU in their last 3 games. Cool story for sure
