February 19, 200818 yr Beating a hot, desperate team coming off a big win against Georgetown. :laugh: This just seemed eerily similar to the debate about LSU being "hot" or "on a roll" in a different thread. I just have to ask if you had that in mind with this post, or if it was just pure coincidence...either way, I thought it was funny.:thumb:

February 19, 200818 yr ^ I was thinking the same sort of thing....SEC folks always want to compare to the Big East....get over it guys...the Big East is nasty, I for one am very happy that Duke isn't in the conference. But it is a catch-22. If Duke plays a game in the tourney with a Big East officiating crew they could struggle, simply due to the physical style the Big East plays. Same for Louisville, if they get an ACC or Pac 10 crew...it can be scary, when fouls, or no calls can dictate your team's success.
February 19, 200818 yr You don't really want to compare Cuse and LSU, do you??? No, and that wasn't my intention...I started to include that in the original post, but I was curious to see how long it would take and how many people would take it that way and bring it up. I thought it was funny because I thought he was taking a jab at UK fans response on LSU...it was something along the lines of "LSU was the hottest team in the conference", to which one gametime replied, "2 good games out of ten...says a lot about the conference". I paraphrased a bit, but anyway...there's always somebody looking for an argument on BGP, so I figured I'd leave the original post alone to get a rise out of somebody. As for Syracuse and LSU...ahh, why even go there. You three should know I don't think the SEC is worth a hoot this year. I'm a bit disappointed that it was GT, 02Ram54, and RP who jumped on it first...but, I can't say I'm surprised.
February 19, 200818 yr The BIG III are in full force now. I didn't think of that...I must say, my post was definitely worth it to reunite the Big III...:scared: If you guys start wreaking havoc now, you can point back to this...and had I thought of that, I might have argued a little while just for old time's sake. I'm kicking myself over a missed opportunity... ...of course, I'm not sure how far I could have carried an LSU vs. Syracuse debate, even with the advantage of defending a position I disagree with meself.
February 19, 200818 yr The BIG III are in full force now. Rounding in to post season form... :banana:
February 19, 200818 yr Rounding in to post season form... :banana: Just curious GT, did we overestimate the SEC earlier this year...we both picked UK to go 9-7 in conference...and I suspect, like me, a big part of your reasoning was the weakness of the conference. It looks like they're going to exceed our expectations...I figured somewhere between 8-8 or 10-6, looks like 10-6 might be the minimum now.

Thin at the top and weak at the bottom as we anticipated...
February 19, 200818 yr I think I overvalued the middle a bit. Thin at the top and weak at the bottom as we anticipated... That's an understatement...I'd say one team is pretty thin... It's the weakest I can remember in all honesty...had UK been healthy all season, they'd have had a great shot to be the second best team in the conference. That's pretty weak...I can't understand how people see it otherwise...
