$EC Fun
It always sucked seeing $EC teams play completely crappy OOC schedules; then play an overrated highly ranked $EC team and beat them, and all of a suddent they're also this good team with an unwarranted RPI boost and they're in the tournament. Arkansuck, Bama, Vandy and Kentucky have all benefitted from this in the past.

This year is much more fun because they don't have anyone ranked. Arkansuck; going nowhere with their #109 RPI has a really good shot at beating Kentucky today. Kentucky's is at #61 so they can't exactly afford to be losing these games.

South Carolina; who is lousy, but supposedly should be in the tourney according to their fans has an RPI of 44 and will probably lose to a really crappy Bama team; who is at #135.

It is going to be awesome seeing all of these bad teams knock each other out of the NCAA tournament over the course of the next month.

Yeah, those SC fans should watch what they say about Memphis. Remember what happened to KenSucky after they called us out on a message board?? They lost about 3 or 4 in a row. The Curse of the Cal-bino!

A shame that someone from that craptastic conference will get an autobid.

Hey, be careful, remember the only reason our Tigers ever get in is because we win the AutoBid.03-lmfao

I don't know the exact stats, but I do know that's nowhere near correct. Where are you getting your figures?

CUSA is craptastic as well, but they do have one team that deserves a bid. The SEC is garbage from top to bottom this year.

Embarrassing as it sounds, it's true. The SEC has dominated C-USA this year, with three of their wins coming against the top half of our league. This is why I have serious reservations about claims that our league is constantly improving every season.

Auburn 78 Tulane 53
Florida 89 UCF 61
Ole Miss 78 UCF 46
Ole Miss 82 Marshall 78
Mississippi State 82 Houston 65
Southern Miss 78 Ole Miss 59
Memphis 54 Tennessee 52
