Oregon wasn't an upset even though they were ranked higher. The game was in Boulder and everyone knows Dinwiddie is a star.

I feel you though. Still upset central.

 

[アミーゴ]

A lot of those really aren't upsets though.

 

[superantigen]

The only one that really wasn't an upset was Memphis (and maybe Oregon).

Everyone else, however, lost to a team they were supposed to be better than. In my book, that's an upset

Have u seen Colorado?? SMU at home, not really to me. Called that.

SDSU on the road, semi upset I guess but not a huge deal to people.

Leaves Duke, OSU and UNC if they lose this to Wake.

Not a huge deal.

Cincy's defense keeps them in any game with almost any team in the nation. Kilpatrick and Jackson provide the offense. I'm not shocked Memphis lost the game with Crawford and Johnson going cold. Very perimeter based at times to their detriment.

Kansas shot second worst percentage in Bill Self's tenure. The worst being the TCU loss last year.

 

[awwsome]

That TCU loss was comedy, it was like there was a lid on the rim for KU

 

[superantigen]

...and let's officially add UNC to that list...

Though, with the way they've played all year, this loss is hardly stunning.

[awwsome]

UNC plays to their competition, expect them to beat Duke and/or Cuse

 

[champcruthik]

Kansas' 68-game non-conference home streak snapped. Self was previously 94-5.

 

[awwsome]

Self gotta blame himself, he doesn't know how to manipulate his offensive principals to his current roster.

Hopefully they get it all together by March

I don't see Kansas or Kentucky winning the title this year. I really don't. A lot of basketball to be played, I'll remain patient.

I think Self just got caught up in the competition of recruiting some one and dones instead of going after players that run his system.

 

[awwsome]

Not enough experience/leadership on either squad regardless of talent level

It all starts with Tharpe and Mason running the offense.

 

[awwsome]

Not enough shooting to spread the floor on Kansas either. Self barely gives his shooters minutes and Tharpe/Mason aren't consistent threats from the outside or great facilitators.

 

[ballatician]

Kansas and Kentucky are still the 2 teams with the most talent so you can't count them out.  Maybe first title for Sean Miller tho?

Disgaree completely


I bet you $100 that Kentucky and Kansas will both fail to make the final 4

Sheesh. Cats this confident in the first week of January?

 

[finallyfamous]

You think they make it cat dog?

Not shocked at all by that Cincy/ Memphis game... Wasn't an upset to me.

Same page as you my man.

Way too early to make that call. Literally the first weekend of conference play.

Agreed on Memphis/UC. Overhyped backcourt, that's actually pretty undisciplined for a group of seniors. Coaching leaves a lot to be desired. If you slow the pace and make them play halfcourt like Cronin did, then their prone to take some bad shots. Keep them off the offensive glass too and you're good. They're a legit top 25 team.

 

[seymore cake]

It's too early to call anything. Talk to me at the end of February.

 

[mr marcus]

who's surprised by the unc L? That's just what they do...I hope mcadoo bum *** turn pro....luckily I never fell for the hype...freshman year was a product of all the talent around him
