We can disagree on this, I believe the selection committee does not look only at analytics, but do have some discussion which will include consideration on the schools loses. Name recognition and conference recognition plays a part.
Intention to discuss, not to ruin it. Happy new year.
Man, lighten up guys, I'm just having fun with it.
Different bigs. Bama is guard oriented. UM everything was ran through them.
sounds like keeping them off of the offensive boards will be a big challenge as well. I know they will get boards but we have to limit somewhat don't you think? Seems like it could be a game where Glenn Taylor has to have some moments defensively. Hopefully we don't have to depend too much on Wague off the bench but we may have to.
I could see a lot of Taylor. Especially quick if Elvis struggles or doesn’t give us much on both ends.
I think this is the big question about how we do in conference because I think our guards can match up with most teams but the frontline will be our challenge.
He is 3-0 against power conference teams this year, including a win over the team that beat Kentucky today. And if he coached in the SEC, he wouldn’t be coaching a roster with four kids he brought from D2. Something tells me if you have him SEC quality players, he would do just fine.
Couldn't be worse than 1-5.
Sounds like Twitter troll Three Year Letterman. "He can't handle the grind of an SEC schedule!"
Huh? He asked a question about Ben. My answer didn’t even reference Loser in the slightest.
I get your point but flexing that we're 2-4 vs 1-5 is outright depressing from where this program should be
Agreed. It shouldn’t be a huge shock that I didn’t expect OU to win tonight. Glad they did though.
Maybe just don't assume we're going to lose? I mean, you don't have to predict a win, but maybe just hold your water until the game is played. That level of negativity gets so old. A loss tonight was by no means a certainty entering this game.
Three Year Letterman is hilarious. The parenting advice regarding sports tweets are quite comicalSounds like Twitter troll Three Year Letterman. "He can't handle the grind of an SEC schedule!"
Ben McCollum would do fine in a major conference with the ability to recruit major college talent. Better than the current coach we got from a Valley school.
I imagine they "officially" don't discuss it but everyone knows each others' interests, especially now that football P4 conferences are all represented on the committee. And most of them are probably honest, but Greg Byrne from Alabama knows first hand how tough the SEC is without looking at stats sheets. It's kind of hard to avoid motivated reasoning and think the teams you saw against your own program are better than someone you haven't watched.
