USA Today Preseason Basketball Rankings are out ...

[mozichrome]

top 10 at #8 ...i'd take it

 

[Splatter©]

A team from Indiana on top how surprising

 

[mastermind]

I can't wait to watch NC State crash and burn this year. No way in hell will they live up to the hype. And they STILL won't beat UNC.

they have the most talented team in the conference, but I really dont trust Gotfried to take it to the next level with them.

 

[315]

#9

And UK aint winning it all this year. They dont have anywhere near the talent and experience they had last year.

they had 2 seniors on that team...everybody else was fr and so...

Boss was hyped about that NC State ranking, had to remind him State is like 18/19-1 against UNC since Roy took over. Quickly went from to to

 

[gameover82]

Indiana and Louisville...number 1 and 2

 

[Dog Based Gremlin]

St. Johns

Miller, Lamb, and Jones were key players that returned and helped them win it all last year. They don't have that at all this year. Their best 3 point shooter is a 6'9" PF who might of played 10 minutes a game last year. I like the players they brought in this year, Goodwin and Poythrees especially. Not sold on all the Noel hype though, still not cleared by the NCAA btw.

Anybody who's expecting the same UK that we've seen for the past few years is gonna be in for a big surprise. They'll be good, they're talented, but not elite like last year.

They saying NC State is legit. Man, this NC State team is crazy talented.

Duke or unc will win the ACC...again

Although I think my Blue Devils are too high at #8

 

[Taadow]

didnt Mizzou lose mad people, who they got coming in?

My thoughts. And, it looks like they're gonna have to change their style up this year since it looks like they're finally gonna have some bigs.

they have the greatest transfer class of all time

Oriaki/Bell/Ross/Brown

Pressey/Dixon is a very good college backcourt

Bowers back from injury

depending on how they mesh I could see a final 4

they are at least a sweet 16 team... unless they play norfolk st in the 1st round

 

[Skilltastrophy]

Mizzou will be top ten by March...and that's all that matters

Oriahki and Bowers inside

Pressey and Dixon outside

Jabari Brown and Keion Bell on the wing

we about to beast

 

[Rodgers]

my Elite 8 teams

1.Louisville
Ricky 3 Stacks has the best D. Depth and experience.
2.Indiana
Bring an experienced and talented team back. Can they defend against the best teams
3.Kansas
Tons of experience. No great players but with Self Kansas is always in the hunt
4. NC ST
Lots of talent got some experience last year
5.UK
No experience. Noel way overrated. Still a lot of NBA talent and Cal gets teams to defend. If we can be tough we can compete for a title.
6. Floirida'
For the 3rd straight year Billy Donavan has elite 8 talent great balance between guards and bigs. Got to avoid Boyton and co. chuckin and Patrick Young needs to prove he is an NBA player
7.Mich. St
8. UCLA/Zona hard to say till Bazz/Anderson are cleared

Wouldn't have mattered if y'all didn't tuck tail and run to the SEC #RockChalk
