Mondays new AP poll

[Cowtown Cat]

According to Lunardi UK is a 4 seed. 🤡

That’s absurd!

 

[the nail at the foul line]

That’s absurd!

Lunardi still a 1 seed in my Toupeeology. Behind Mr Schwump from Andy Griffith.

Flagg got 42
He shot 16-17 FT
Duke should be #1
Didn’t you see them pull out the big win at home against 7-8 powerhouse ND. They play powerhouse Miami next I think without a coach.

Absolutely. Listening to ESPN, you would think they only had one player on their team. They might as well name them the Duke Cooper Flaggs.

Florida may very well jump us. That's a completely valid point. But they may not jump us - which would not be an unreasonable ranking for Florida. Marquette's only game since the last AP poll was vs. Georgetown. Georgetown was tied with Marquette (64-64) with 2:09 left. It was still a one-possession game (Marquette 66-Geortetown 64) at 0:46 left. I don't think Marquette's win over Georgetown will elevate them above the 'Cats in Monday's poll. Just MHO, of course.

We'll either stay at No. 6 or drop to No, 7 if Florida gets ranked above U.K.

But, whatever ... Go 'Cats ! ! !

Wade Taylor is nowhere near as good as Sears. Alabama was missing Wrightsell and Mallette too.

When did I compare Wade Taylor to Sears?

Both players are point guards and both players are extremely key to their teams success. So that's why I said taking Sears off the court for Alabama would neuter them, just like misding Taylor neutered aTm.

Texas a&m is built differently, Wade is extremely inportant, because they don't really have any other offensive weapons and Wade is their best on-ball defender, that's very important when you're playing Alabama.

 

[Digger-Cat]

Pollsters don't care about that. They don't watch the games.

Right, I wasn't really bringing it up to say they shouldn't move up, I'm just saying they got really lucky that they got a neutered aTm team on the road. If Taylor played, Bama doesn't win.

That isn’t true. Alabama has plenty of on-ball creation and shooting to replace Sears. It’s not the same at all.

Disagree. Alabama is the better team, Sears or not. Realistically that game would not have been close without the refs indulging A&M’s foul baiting.

Yeah, that's false. Take Sears off that team and they have a lot more losses, including last night.

I take it you're an Alabama fan.
Look at the score, without their best player, aTm got it within one possession at a minute left, but you're saying Alabama still wins if Wade plays? Yeah… .no.

1. Cooper Flagg
2. AUBURN
3. DUKE
YEAH...he's that important!

 

[Blueisbest]

My guess:
1. Auburn
2. Iowa State
3. Duke
4. Alabama
5. Florida
6. Tennessee
7. Marquette
8. Kentucky

That looks about right.

Drop a spot or two I'd say.
