Polls
Having lost 4 of their last 5 games, Florida have dropped out of the polls and Tennessee have moved in. Now 3 SEC teams in polls. [ 12-18-2017, 03:30 PM: Message edited by: SCWC ]

Seth Davis is a $hithead and doesn't know a dunk from a home run. Mark my words all of the media is intentionally dissing the cats. They will get theirs soon when it is proven that the cats are going to be a lot better than what they think. Also I am not falling for the SEC being a lot better this year, at least not yet. Dreaming we will get 7 teams in the NCAA is just rediculous. Cats will be 26-4 at the end.
"""Kentucky played one game this week, landing its biggest win of the season by beating Virginia Tech. So when The Athletic’s Seth Davis unveiled his picks for Monday’s Associated Press Poll, Davis dropped the Wildcats (9-1) a spot from No. 16 to No. 17.
The drop coincided with moving up a multi-loss Purdue team, a team that played only one game this week, a win over Butler.
Considering that 1) Davis ranked Kentucky ahead of Purdue a week ago and 2) Kentucky’s win over Virginia Tech (No. 29 in KenPom) was more impressive than Purdue’s win over Butler (No. 53), it seems strange to move Purdue up after that week’s play.
Purdue has drawn praise for excelling through a difficult schedule, though it’s also worth noting that Purdue has losses on neutral courts to both Tennessee and Western Kentucky, with the latter school ranked No. 95 in KenPom.
When answering questions about his poll, Davis was also asked whether Texas A&M would win the SEC, answering “Affirmative.”""

Bama, I never listen to Seth Davis, he knows about as much about basketball as a 3 year old does. He is a Duke alumni who has always shown bias toward Kentucky.

Yeah Bama, don't ever let anything Seth Davis said bring you down. He's complete and utter idiot.
