Guys, maybe take another look at the schedule...

Week 3 rankings released Nov. 18. Later that day Pitt beat VMI by 45. Then on Friday Nov 22 they beat a previously undefeated LSU. Then on Nov. 22 they lose to an undefeated Wisconson to fall to 6-1. So they went 2-1 in the week, and their loss was not one that would have really hurt them too badly. That doesn't seem unreasonable for picking up some votes.

That's one cupcake win, one ordinary win, one ranked loss. Yes, historically speaking, usually a team that has that kind of a week drops.

It's okay if they don't drop, but not go up 10 spots.

Sorry, not trying to just blabber on it, just saying...I've never really seen that before from the AP.

5 Star Freshmen up for huge game. Bama got bruised and beaten by Houston. I expect Bama pulls away in second half, but we'll see.

I'm not sure what play that was Izzo drew up at the end of regulation, but it looks like the plan was to have Jeremy Fears foul Tre Holloman.

You typically want a little more spacing

They lost to Kansas, Auburn(Best two teams in the country right now) and Michigan State. They play Alabama on 12/4.

Their schedule has been insane and they won't/shouldn't be penalized. Other teams(us included) have a beefed up record by playing awful competition. We had the 344th ranked schedule after our game versus Little Rock.

Let's beat someone of substance before we throw rocks. We could be in a similar boat after tomorrow.

Kylan will take care of one of Bailey/Harper. Tre White needs to go back to his USC roots and play D like crazy or 1 of those freshman will get 30. No chance KJ
can keep up with either.

Dayton is just one of those teams that make it competitive but really bad at closing out games. Up 21 against UNC, choked against ISU missing free throws.

Little to no chance they pull this one out considering their lack of ability to do the simple things in order to close out games
