Would anybody be shocked if either of those teams finish 3rd in the SEC or 7th?<br /><br />Arkansas, as you said, is "wait and see". They're up to 37th in KenPom, but they've played a soft schedule and haven't played a true road game yet. As we've seen in the past, Mike Anderson's style works a lot better at home and a lot better against inferior teams. Are they still going to be the 37th best team in the country when they're playing at Florida? I'd bet against it.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12767101715737129123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22972768.post-45504304307077656392014-01-05T11:25:19.619-05:002014-01-05T11:25:19.619-05:00What do you think about Arkansas?

No true marquee wins yet, and no telling if their road woes will continue into this year, but they seem to have an athletic squad thats beginning to gel pretty well under Anderson. <br /><br />I guess we'll have to wait and see for their next 3 games, as they travel to A&M (pushover) before getting Florida and UK at home, but still wanted to see your input. <br /><br />Also any comments on how they fall in place with teams like LSU, Alabama, and Ole Miss/Missouri would be nice as well.

They have five losses, but all five have come against good teams, all but one was away from home, and three of the five came down to the final 30 seconds. So without some bad luck, they <i>should</i> have a quality win already.<br /><br />Obviously at some point potential has to run into won/loss record, so if they don't start winning quality games in the next two or three weeks I'll have to drop them out, but for now I do still think they have a good shoat at 9-9.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12767101715737129123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22972768.post-15375476814195709082014-01-05T01:27:41.954-05:002014-01-05T01:27:41.954-05:00The Big 10 very well may get three top 2 seeds, bu...The Big 10 very well may get three top 2 seeds, but if they do then it will come at the expense of the the middle of the pack teams in the conference. <br /><br />What do you see in the rest of Indiana's season that warrants a 10 seed? They've thus far shown no propensity to beat even bubble teams. I don't think they have a wealth of thus-far-unrealized potential that will miraculously get them into the tournament.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
