I'm not sure if it's just the momentum around the program or if the coverage really is starting earlier this season. For reference, the AP put out their first poll in the middle of October last year.

It's been a long time since I was more excited about the start of hoops season.

Lunardi doesn't have Bama in .

Zach Edey returning to Purdue shakes up Bracketology in a big way

Kansas remains the clear preseason No. 1, but the Boilermakers have slipped in behind the Jayhawks as a probable repeat 1-seed with revenge on their minds.

Was good sign that Florida is listed so high and not only did bama stay with them on their court...but pretty much dominated them ....til the end...
Maybe this is the HCthatwill work out

We will need some road wins for sure looking at the schedule best chances are @ Vandy, Mizz, MSU and Ole Miss.

I have to say, the offense Oats is putting out there is very impressive.

If they'd have caught a couple of breaks with Q, Rojas, and Gary I'm not sure how some of the fans would be reacting. I'm pretty sure it would be over-reacting, but with reason.

Are they good enough to get that Wednesday and Thursday bye? LSU, UK, Auburn, and Tennessee are your likely favorites for the top four in March.

Unless something changes I see them finishing around the same seeding as last year.

Wasn't sure where to put this...

There were 6 losses by top 5 teams this week. Hasn't happened since February 1994.

@planomateo,

 

[rick4bama]

Bama winning Wednesday may have put that team in a tailspin!

Tennessee won't be finishing in top 4 of the league this year. We have a legit shot at finishing in top 4. These guys have bought in and are believing. We can realistically win every remaining game on our schedule...I truly believe that much. I know that's a talllll task but these kids have gotten on board with this staff.
