How is Houston w/ a loss and their cupcake schedule ranked ahead of Ky?

Ill hang up and listen.
They damn sure better be ranked below UK next week after Bama beats them down tonight!

Kenpom has them at #1 with an L and the 287 SOS.
Farrrr Kenpom!!!

Houston's been a media and statistical darling the last few years. It helps that they actually dethroned Kansas last year. I hope they repeat that feat this season. Keep Kansas in the backseat for once.

And they've been living on borrowed time for a while now. Media seems to like to rank them high.
Almost guarantee they come back down to earth in the Big 12 this year.

Houston, they have a problem.

Why is everyone so hung up on where we are ranked?? Basketball has a tourney....comes out in the wash. Then again I see who the OP is so yeah.

Because the preseason polls - which are STUPID - dictate movement for the first month of the season.

Once again, OP’s sh*ting rainbow’s.. And I think Houston’s defense gives Alabama problems if they aren’t hitting 3’s 👍

Really?
Well the Vikings are 9-2 and winners of 4 straight with next 3 in MN; and UK is undefeated, beat then #6 Duke and are avg damn near 100 ppg.
So yeah, i actually am crapping rainbows right now!
Cup or Cone MM?
Stu, there is enough for you as well.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

They have hated us for years.

Houston sometimes struggles to score and they are elite defensively. But you have to score in today's game.

After watching Iowa State last night, I would say they are the best team in the BIG12.

Lots of damn good teams this year, glad we're one of them.
