Our OOC schedule is looking more impressive
After it looking like some of our OCC might be questionable, it is coming together...
Wisconsin is 3-0 in B1G play with a blowout of #12 Illinois.
Marquette is 3-0 in Big East play with wins vs. UConn, #19 Georgetown, and at Pitt.
FSU is 2-1 with road wins at Clemson and Maryland and the lone loss is UNC. (This one still doesn't look that much better but I'm shocked they've beaten anyone in the ACC).
Arizona of course only has 1 loss.
Kansas State (who some said would be bad) is 2-0 in the Big 12 including a win over former #22 Oklahoma State.

That is part of why UF is number 1 in Ken Pomeroy's rankings.

I hope FSU wins the ACC crown.
How can one possibly root against a Florida team, and especially one that the Gators crushed on their home court?

I won't listen to anyone who knocks our scheduling.
Billy D is not shy in taking on top teams.

I rooted for FSU once when they were playing Duke.
I then felt so dirty I needed to take a shower.

Based on the past few seasons, I don't see how anyone at all could knock the Gators' scheduling. Donovan has definitely lined up some tough opponents, and what's more, is that they aren't just in Gainesville. Aside from the home and home games with Arizona, OSU(previos two seasons) etc, is the not-so-neutral site games like Kansas State in KC. Goes without saying the scheduling has been a boost to RPI and overall preparedness for March.

Florida's previous opponents are definitely starting to do their part.Personally, I'll still be somewhat interested in tracking Georgetown to see what kind of ultimate effect their record could have had on Florida's RPI. That was a pretty bad loss they took at home to Pitt last wek.

Yes - competitive game between Wis/Indy in Bloomington. Wis appears to have kicked into a new gear this past week.

Wow. Wisky up 5 with 2:00 to go. T/O Indy with the ball. See if the Hoosiers can pull it out, but they are not very impressive in this game.

BTW - Big Ten basketball gets outta the 50s with the same frequency of a Chuck Berry rock-a-billy tune.

Wisky by 6 now with another f/t and only :53 left. Can they close out? Could be a huge SOC game for us.
