I had to leave the game at half time to attend a family event, I heard on the Ramblers radio that Reid got called for jawing a bit too aggressively with the bench for the refs and got the T

Edit: Jawing and he gave Blers bench the finger lol

Interesting, of the unbeaten teams, look where Loyola is for the Kenpom rating.
Rhode Island just beat Big East Providence yesterday

2Tennessee
8 Florida
14 Oregon
42 Oklahoma
49 Utah St
53 UC Irvine
76 Drake
84 Rhode Island
85 Loyola Chicago

Fell in the NET too, from 65 to 73. Metrics definitely didn't like the narrow win, but we avoided disaster with a loss. I could see USF improving as the season goes on though, like they did last year.

San Francisco would be crucial win to boost our metrics, but will be tough without JD. Although last year JD's injury forced us to unlock Sheldon as a weapon, so maybe something similar happens here. Drew mentioned Nwakourie might get more minutes with JD out, maybe we hit SF with something unexpected. We'll see.

I prefer the NET. As of now, San Francisco will be a Quad 1. They are #50 and neutral site games are 1-50.


1 Tennessee
6 Florida
10 Oregon
20 Utah St (they play South Florida next weekend, go Bulls!)
22 UC Irvine
44 Oklahoma
47 Drake
55 Rhode Island
73 Loyola Chicago

Ah yes, we did not see that part......

South Florida is a Quad 4 right now, but they are on an upward trajectory and just to move up 12 spots to move into Q3 territory. They moved up 22 spots after yesterday's game.

Yeah I think they're better than their ratings right now, we'll see where they end up. But we've got a pretty narrow at-large path, so squeaking that out was important. We don't have many opportunities at Q1 wins, so it's imperative we don't drop any Q3/Q4 games. The two games against St. Louis scare me.

Our non-con opponents aren't helping us out so far. Nebraska got waxed by MSU, and Princeton lost again. San Francisco is a fringy Q1 opportunity, other than that Dayton may be our only shot at a Q1 win.
