When we got home from the FSU game the other night, I watched the end of the Stanford/ND game. It was brutal. ND won 47-40. Teams combined to shoot 28% from the field. Them beating Louisville is very surprising.

I will reiterate my commentary that nobody is touching Michigan unless they beat themselves.
 
Score 40 and lose to Notre Damn at home without their best player LOL

Good bounce back W. Louisville has been shaky on the road and without Brown

Meh. We've seen two very mediocre teams almost beat them. Take care of the ball and force 3s

Not sure they'll be tested for a while though. Really back loaded schedule
 
Holy shit, I just saw Micah Shrewsberry's absolute meltdown after the end of ND's loss at Cal last night!



That man lost his mind. You gotta think he's getting a game suspension or some sort of penalty.
 
I understand it’s just math but Kenpom has some odd rankings at this point. UK is ranked above us despite us beating them on the road and having better wins overall. Their best wins are IU and St Johns, both solid but nothing special. They are an example of what many hate about the advanced metrics. Sure they’ve blown out the cupcakes on their schedule, but here are the records of those teams not named IU or SJ:

4-8
5-8
2-9
2-10
3-9
0-11
3-8

Who cares if you beat teams like this senseless?

Justified response lol, that foul call was egregious.

Folks who understand that specific wins/losses are often due to events outside the direct control of the teams involved and that efficiency metrics are typically far more predictive than mere W/L records.
