LSU got outplayed by Mizzou for 38 minutes and needed a miracle to beat a 15-17 squad.

The number of close wins LSU had this year is indicative of a very lucky team.

Duke isn’t a great team. Zion just carries their balls. Zion needed a 31 point game just to beat UNC by one point on a dreadful 3pt shooting night.

Duke is susceptible to getting bounced by a team that blisters from the 3 because they don’t have the shooting talent to match. UNC does tho.

Virginia is pretty good. Only two teams have beat them this season. The least in college basketball

Duke barely beat Wake Forest, AT HOME.

Still had two lottery picks and McDonalds All-Americans.

LSU beat Tennessee without their best playmaker, Tremont Waters.

You wanted most talented and potential elite teams. Well, here you are. Dont let your bias smack you too hard.

Gonzaga beat a full strength Duke and have an additional top player now


Correction they beat them without two players: Tillie and Crandall.

Judging by how Duke is playing right now, I am an idiot.

You don’t think Florida paid players under Donovan?

There are a handful of teams who are capable of playing at an elite level.

One of these is in no way like the others

According to actual CBB experts LSU is arguably the most talented team in the country. So while the name on the jersey may not belong in that group, the talent on the court certainly does.

Tennessee is not that great. For some reason UK fans have slobbed on their knob the past month or so though.
