GOI - Initial NET comes out

[loca2874]

Today the initial NET came out and it did not disappoint. The site has all kinds of new stuff to it and I will dig into it more soon. For now I give what I always have.

Tulsa opens up as a 178 which is far better than the 308 we were last year. My god it was bad.

Todays Games

Only one game today as Maryland Eastern Shore takes on East Carolina. There will be a new post tomorrow.

AND ONE

Do I believe Alabama is a better team than FSU? Yes. Do I believe they will give them a better game than FSU? Also yes. That doesn’t matter. FSU went undefeated in a Power 5 conference and they should have been given the opportunity. The committee as I see it could not keep the SEC out as there is too much money in that. This committee is a farce.

GO TU!!!

We’ve got 3 straight games coming up that are tough but winnable. This will be interesting to watch for our growth. LC is 107 in the net and MSU is 98, opportunities here

 

[Weatherdemon]

FSU should’ve been in. Period.

Would they lose against Bama? Probably.
OU should’ve beat OK St though.
Very few had UT beating Bama.
Games are played for a reason.

Wouldas’, probably’s, and other suppositions shouldn’t be taken into account for playoffs but, this is and always has been an invitational based on best probable viewership and who would bring in the most money.

FSU played a solid schedule and went undefeated. In any other sport they would’ve been a lock.


FWIW, I can’t stand FSU.

Can we shoot better for the next few games and limit our turnovers?

I think those are the two most realistic paths to getting some wins.

I don't see our inside game improving anytime soon. That will take a while if at all this season.

Rebounds and points in the paint as well as creating fouls is where we need to focus

We left 12 points on the rim from missed layups. I’ll take making the damn layups.
Man, that was frustrating.

= better shooting

 

[I.I.]

A half court offense that leads to wide open threes from the ones that shoot 33% or better. Better passes to the post.

The NET stunner is OSU at 196
The Cowboys have had injuries, close losses and underachieved but I think that is too low

….and I thought is was too high . OSU won’t win ten games this season. Big12 is brutal.

One of those wins might be against Tulsa unless we can find a way to win away from the Reynolds Center

Boynton will be gone then. I don't believe his buyout is very much. Be interesting who is next.
