I don’t believe that’s correct. I swore I read that the SEC chooses the teams to participate based on their conference standing from the previous year.

those sec teams that don’t participate then end up matching a game with the American through some kind of deal.

Missouri and Ole Miss finished 12th and 13th respectively in the conference last year, while aggy finished 5th.

Oops I was looking at the year before. Yeah it seems random or whatever. Not sure how UGA and SC keep ducking this challenge to the tune of 6 times each in 10 years.

Stevenson seems like the most WVU guy ever. And he’s on his third school?!

[jimmyjazz 45546]

WVU is doing their best to blow a 17 point lead at home.

They play Ole Miss. favored bigly. -9.5

A&M hasn’t participated since 2020-21. They missed like 3 of the 10 challenges. 3-4 with 3 DNPs

Georgia and SC will have 6 DNPs after this year. Florida hasn’t missed a single year. 

Texas is the only B12 program with a DNP bc of the 2021 cancellation with UK due to Covid 

Pretty sure Cal used Covid as an excuse as the Cats were sucking hind tit that season. 

Interesting how these things get scheduled makes no rhyme or reason imo... Texas played UGa twice with both times in Athens, Vandy twice in Austin and would've played UK twice in Rupp if not for "covid".  They're doing it right this season in some aspect with UT/UT & KU/UK pretty much doing a Home&Home like I always thought it should be.

Nice win by WV over Auburn 80-77.

[Valmy77 13093]

Nice win WV.

There went one of the few games the SEC was favored in.

[ChiTownDoc 21098]

Porter starts his run today for the tourney.  Still believe in him.  But he's lucky the bball coach gets plenty of leeway in Norman.  Not gonna lie, I'll miss this conference for hoops for sure.  But carrying the league just wasn't sustainable for football and we all know, everything revolves around football...even KU hoops would agree, even though they're obviously not happy about it.  

[Pancho 44455]

Happy to maybe be wrong about tech/lsu which is fine by me because I’m predicting us to lose today against Tennessee.

Good to see WVU close that one out 

[Horn80 6075]

Grandma at Texas Tech was good last season with Beard’s team but not looking so good this year at 10-10.  Think this become the trend for Tech going forward.

Where the duck has this Oklahoma team been?

[Js1 85095]

The top team in the SEC should not be down big to OU. The SEC is ass my dude

Alabama just doesn’t want to be there

[Js1 85095]

Bama down big

ISU down without Grill

UH down

Marquette tied with DePaul

Losing to ou today could affect some opinions over on the coaching search thread.

AP voters dropping Texas 3 spots for losing in Ames was hilarious (and then winning relatively drama free in Morgantown).

Houston is struggling at home to Cincy as well. 

Why do we even have an AP poll in bball?

Always been meh on Oats. He's fine but Texas can do better. 

[Paul Wesley 3277]

I normally don't go too hard for the conference rah-rah shit, but Bama and Auburn are a combined 14-2 in SEC play, and neither one even showed up for the first half on the road against two teams that are a combined 4-12 in the Big 12.  

That said, the day is young.

We’re going to lose by 30.  They’re just heaving off balance shots that are falling.  Burn the tape and hope we get healthy.

Unbelievable performance from OU so far. I’m fine with them exposing this Bama team, which they seemed to talk about more than Texas on Gameday this morning. I didn’t even know they were still doing CBB Gameday so not sure I expected much. Greenberg is unwatchable.

Maybe but 18-2. Might be a year where anyone in the top 8 or so has a legit shot to win it all. No one seems that overly dominant 

[Al_4_ISU 12409]

Just getting all the horse shit play out at once.  This could be beneficial long term.

Right?  Right?

[Js1 85095]

Did Mark Adams not know Kerwin Walton was on the team? Not sure Tech has this lead without him

I guess. I am a little tired of every season being we have this great November and December just to get chewed up every conference season. It would be nice to have a few bottom feeders to feast on sometimes.

If that is meaningful to you well I can't fault somebody finding meaning in their lives.

2-6 in the Big 12 would be 6-2 in the SEC!  - OU/WV

Agree.  Just couldn’t resist ripping them as B12 is definitely legit.

Oh I totally agree.  Big 12 Basketball is a grind and the best conference top to bottom. 

I was mocking the SEC as they try to apply the same logic to their  football (and pretty much every sport).

Gotcha. I thought you were making fun of me for conference pride. Totally not where I was going there.

Yeah being first in the SEC clearly doesn't mean much.
