Crazy how much love a team like Virginia gets, basically the same team we had a year ago. Except for they're number two we were hanging in the mid teens. Oh the ACC. I understand they have an exceptional defense, if not the best overall in the NCAA. But their offense is nothing. Even against horrible defensive teams they struggle to score 70. This is the kind of 1 seed I would love for the bearcats to play.

they have an offense ranked 28 spots ahead of ours on kenpom. if you think their offense sucks, imagine what ours looks like to outsiders. |

Our offense and our games outside of 2, look much better offensively then Virginia. They play at a slow ass pace that just isn’t enjoyable. When our offense is clicking were fun to watch. Virgins basketball is never fun to watch. They use 3 more seconds of shot clock than we do and only 1 team plays slower than them. Don’t care how effiecient they are, it’s not fun basketball. They are efficient because they protect the ball at a high level |

Yeah, they play super slow, which holds down their scores, but no one should confuse slow with bad. They shoot almost 40% from 3-point range, rarely turn it over, and hit their free throws. Their offense is clearly better than ours, although it is also a lot more jump shot reliant, which can really hurt them on an off night.

Oklahoma and texas tech both down at halftime. When you can keep trae young in check, Oklahoma just isn't that great. He has the highest usage percentage ever at 39.1. They rely on him TOO much. He's an extremely good player but like most really good players even when he is off he doesn't know when to try to get his team involved he kind of digs himself into a hole.

Oklahoma state pulls out the W. despite the refs almost giving Oklahoma the game at the end of regulation on what was a clean block.

Watching Kansas Baylor and it's really hard not to believe the refs want Kansas to win. Either that or they are just absolutely terrible at their jobs. Either way, almost every call has gone Kansas' way.

Once again my Reddit poll ballot will be insanely hard to fill out.
The Poll should just be top 15 because after the top 15 teams, the rest are inconsistent and unreliable and aren't deserving of a number next to their name |
