arizona ahead of us??

OP, it might be helpful to put some content in your post that clarifies what you mean.
Not trying to be rude here - but several of your threads have started this way. Kind of hard for people to understand and respond in a manner to your liking if you're only giving a partial thought.
Now, if I got the gist - you're wondering why Arizona is ranked ahead of UK, because every you watch them they have either lost their game, or are losing.
Going into their game vs Oregon they were 16-4; 4-3 in Pac 12. Similar to us - but their losses weren't as bad, and most were within 2-3 points. Until last night, all were on the road.
A lot of teams are ranked ahead of us, many for head scratching reasons. Is what it is

They didn't lose to Auburn and Ohio State. That's why.
People keep referencing ohio state and auburn....as bad losses???? You have to look at the games...ohio state and Auburn both played out of their munds that game...obviously if the played like that more often they wouldnt have record they have...should actually garner more respect for UK than punishment in polls
they are bad losses because of who THEY have lost to, and how badly. The Auburn game is a good example because we had a 16 point lead and BLEW it in the 2nd half.
How should that garner more respect? We got beat. The committee will not look at those losses as well you know Ohio state and auburn Played their best games all season, we'll cut uk some slack. Give me a break, start using reason and realism instead of emotion. Your posts never have any substance what so ever.
The Auburn loss was a bad one. Attempts to spin it, to me, make no sense whatsoever.
it was worse than bad, to me - we HAD that game and blew it. It wasn't a matter of the opposing team being crazy all night (ala UCLA or OSU). Those games could at least be somewhat explained by the teams came out and punched us in the mouth early, and we didn't have the experience yet to recover. The UCLA game especially since Ulis wasn't 100% and obviously off, and Lee went out so early with an injury.
But Auburn - that's the single most embarrassing loss of the season, in my opinion. On the plus side, it seems to have sparked something in this team, given the next three games.
I think the largest lead we had in the 2nd half was 12. Still incredible that we gave that game away. I pray that we get to play them in the SEC tourney.
You live in fantasy land. Come out of the rabbit hole and join reality. Auburn was a horribly bad team. They beat us. From a rankings point of view, nothing else matters

The reason for the laugh is a inside family joke. Seriously,maybe the poster writes like some folk talk. A few little broken sentences foiling the coherent thoughts.I think Zona will be there by the end of the season. Their recent tournament history suggests that to me. I think the rankings mean more in late Feb. anyway.
This year Duke is the one,that always seem to be losing. Still they rank'em ahead of us, which is weird to me.
LOL I have a tendency to start speaking in the middle of a thought - and everyone around me looks at me like I've lost my mind

I agree about Arizona - perhaps some hiccups along the way (we can relate) but they'll get there
Duke relied more on Jefferson than we thought; this particular Plumlee is nowhere near as good as his brothers. Grayson isn't good enough to carry the team. I think they'll make the tourney, but right now looking like a first weekend out.
But as Bill Walton keeps pointing out every game they are in the "Conference of Champions". LOL! I'm sure that gives you some points right there.
