How many deflections?

Archie mentioned our deflections after our last game.

Tyrell Terry is averaging 15 pts a game as a freshman for Stanford. Stanford playing Oklahoma

Not your daddy’s Wisconsin. 

Saw that. Don’t know much about Richmond but they handled that game. I might have to eat my comments about how we can’t top them in Madison. The Reuter’s kid was getting a lot of press up here but he hasn’t impressed me in the last couple.

Arkansas wins at Georgia Tech by 1 in overtime on a banked 3 at the buzzer

Rough game but 6-0 we are. Should 7-0 going into the FSU game which will be the toughest game we have in the non-conference slate. UConn will be feisty though. I think we can beat Wisconsin as well if we don’t make stupid mistakes but you’ll be playing 5 on 8 there. We will fly into the state of Wisconsin and everyone will already have 3 fouls.

I just really hope we can take advantage of the opportunity to boost our resume in December.  If we win 3 of Florida State, Notre Dame, Arkansas, UConn, and Wisconsin I'd be pretty happy.  5 is totally possible though.

We are better than all 5 and only 2, maybe 3 of them are even tourney teams.

Oh boy if we win all 5 that would be crazy. That would likely leave us 13-0 because Nebraska is terrible. 
 

FSU and Arkansas are the toughest teams and we have them at home luckily. Those are gonna be battles.

Our fans may think we're better than all five; the fans of those five teams likely think their teams are better. 

If we win three out of five and add a Nebraska win, that would put us at 11-2 and well on our way to a solid, solid season.

We’re up to 25 on KenPom but our strength of schedule is almost the worst in D1.

Really hoping the wheels don’t fall off once the competition gets harder.

What are the odds that we blow an 11-2 season start twice in a row ;)

We thought the same last year.

I’ll go slightly out on a limb and say UConn is better than Arky. Especially at a neutral site.

Jeff Borzello - 

Temple forward Jake Forrester had his waiver request approved by the NCAA; he’s immediately eligible for the Owls. Former Indiana transfer.

And actually tries to learn his team's plays and sets sometime before the new year rolls around :)

I really don't understand how these decisions are made.
