      I agree. I doubt they lose this season, unless they become complacent.

        UVA was really lucky they won at Miami. The Hurricanes blew that game.

          I think there are a couple of SEC teams that can give us a good game. LSU, Alabama and maybe South Carolina. I am not a fan of the Florida Gators. Oh yea Georgia will be a decent game for a half.

            I also think there will be a few tough SEC games, always is.

            It hurts me to say this, but I also think that there is just as good of a chance of Duke running the table as us. Can you imagine two undefeated teams playing in the title game, now that would be epic!

              Don't think there's a good chance at all that Duke runs the table. Much tougher league, much tougher games--particularly on the road.

              Can't see them losing more than a couple but they will lose IMO. I think their game this coming Sunday at NC State will be tough. Outside that they go to St. John's, they go to Louisville, they go to Virginia, they go to Chapel Hill, they go to Notre Dame--that team isn't going 18-0 in that conference. They rely on too many freshmen.

              I do think they're a Final Four team.

                Trust me Will, I hope you're right, and I agree they haven't had a tough road game yet. I think their only chance of losing is at Virginia, or at Louisville if Harrell can shut down Okafor. I would really be surprised if they go into the tournament with more than two losses. Jones and Okafor may be freshman, but they don't play like it.

                  I think Duke will likely lose a couple also because of their schedule. But they are no doubt one of the 2 best teams in the country. Freshman or not Okafor is a monster. And I have been really impressed by Justice Winslow. Think if UK were to play them trying to guard him might be where the Poythress injury really hurts.

                    Notre Dame might be the second best team in that conference.

                    I also like North Carolina more than most, but like Louisville their offense is erratic which will lead to a couple of weird losses.

                    Carolina/Notre Dame tonight is one of the more intriguing games of the season so far. Two teams that could be in the Final Four. Notre Dame has a guy in Jerian Grant who might be the best player in America not named Okafor.

                      UNC is playing a lot better now. They could beat Duke since its a huge rivalry. ACC has a lot of tough places to go and I think its a better conference than its been in recent years. I'm not sure about Notre Dame. They had to go two OT's to beat a very mediocre Ga Tech team Saturday. STill any game in South Bend is tough. I doubt Duke goes undefeated with all those tough place to play. I still doubt UK does but they have a much better chance. I think it would be great for college basketball if UK and Duke both went undefeated and played for the national title on April 6th. Could you imagine the build up for that game?

                        He's Horace Grant's nephew, and KSR recently gave him Dunk of the Year honors.
                        It took only three days to find the Dunk of the Year in 2015. Watch Jerian Grant, Horace's nephew, defy everything we learned in physics to throw one down.

                          Not sure that Notre Dame is that great of a team but I do think Mike Brey is one of the most underrated coaches in the country. I think he does a great job.

                            Looks like Notre Dame may be pretty good. They went to Chapel Hill and won last night 71-70. They may be one of those teams that have that unexpected magical type season. There is usually one or two like that every season.
                            Texas got thumped at home by Oklahoma last night, 70-49. Getting beat is one thing but losing like that at home is another.

                              Texas looked really bad last night. And that was with their point guard back. He looked slow and just off. Probably still adjusting from the injury. Or they could be going through one of Rick Barnes' patented second-half swoons.

                              Notre Dame is one of those teams, like Gonzaga, who could beat anybody if they're hitting threes. They try and shoot them on pretty much every possession. If they're missing they're flawed but if they're on they are tremendous. Also have one of the best point guards in the game, and anytime you have that you can win. Dangerous team.
