Auburn’s had a rough season. 5 straight Ls now after beating FLA.

Their metrics are still being held afloat by an absurd non-con SOS (Michigan, Arizona, Houston, Purdue, Win vs St. Johns, Win vs NC State), and 3 very good early SEC wins against Arkansas, Florida and Texas. They're in danger of falling below .500 soon here, though.
Dang hope he gets well soon
Okay?
Utah State would be favored over Wisconsin on a neutral floor.
I'll take data over your opinion 100x out of 100.

Kawhi Leonard would be proud.
It's crazy to me how bad Baylor is.
I understand he is great when he plays, but if I am an NBA front office, I question how he is going to handle an NBA schedule! Is it worth it to risk a top pick on someone that can’t handle a 35 game season in which he usually gets 2 to 4 days rest in between!
I wouldn't be surprised if Villanova takes down UConn this weekend. They barely lost in OT @UConn 
They also play St Johns at home (who beat them).I wouldn't be surprised if Villanova takes down UConn this weekend. They barely lost in OT @UConn
If Michigan wins out the reg season, will they be the first BIG team since 05 Illini to finish the season with just 1 loss?
How much longer does Penny have at Memphis. They look dysfunctional and poorly coached.
That's because they are
He will be fine as soon as he can be held financially accountable for playing.
This could be a wild weekend if a few upsets happen. Would love for Cincy to beat KU but that is a dream since it’s at KU, With Houston playing AZ, IA St at BYU, Duke and Michigan on a neutral court and UConn at Nova, a lot could change in the top 10.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but we want Michigan to beat Duke tomorrow right?
My thought process is Michigan is so far ahead of us it's going to be tough to jump them in seeding. We would likely need them to lose to Duke, us, another team like Iowa, AND we make it further than them in the BTT. All that seems extremely unlikely. We have a better shot at jumping Duke, who still has tough games against Virginia, @NC State, and UNC.
But the most likely outcome is we don't jump either team. In that case, we still want Michigan to beat Duke because that would make our win against Michigan even stronger.

Shocked to see this happen with their super qualified coaching hire /s
Really hate seeing that. He’s a good example of the tough choice between staying for NIL money and going pro in todays market…
Bruce Pearl forcing Auburn into a nepo hire is exactly in line with his character. It's so gross.
Auburn clearly still has talent too. They beat St. John's, NC State, Arkansas, and Florida. I say that as more evidence that little Pearl is an atrocious coach and once he loses all the talent daddy recruited, that program is going to fall to the bottom of the SEC and move on from little Pearl as quickly as possible.

Purdue is going to beat Indiana by 25-30 tonight.

In my humble opinion, UCLA's swag is #1.
Cronin entertains me.
I don't know... Indiana is capable if they make their threes.

I'm just thoroughly unimpressed with this Indiana team. They play hard, but they are not good. They lost at IL by 20, so maybe 15-20 is more likely.
@Illinois followed by @Purdue. Brutal. The B10 is such a meat grinder.
