Including me! Sort of lost its luster once the RPI went away just a bit as projected RPI went by the wayside!

A classic.

How is the AAC doing anyway? I honestly have no idea.

AAC is doing ok. Houston a real threat obviously. Memphis in right now probably. Going forward the best part of this year is Tulane looking fairly decent at 13-7. #101 in the NET right now. Oh and also what is happening with the CUSA- where 4 of the teams moving over are in the top 100 in NET, to include Florida Atlantic.

Well X and MU have been having great years with a good mix of conference and non con successes. Other than that here's my thoughts as why nobody's intrigued:

Creightons still checked out from getting punched in the Kaulk

UConn's downtrodden from conference

PC is late to the party because of weak non con

SHU is way too bubblicious to be cocky.

Villanovas a team ripped apart from injuries coming off their two decade long high.

Butler, DePaul, St J, and Georgetown suck

NUI-Galway 2019

We have a bigger bottom (BET or bust group) than ever before since the realignment. Having 6 fan bases mentally checked out isn't good for site traffic, I guess.

Agree with Adoraz regarding the platform issue.

Personally Jay's sudden retirement took a lot out of me. I thought I'd recover by the time season started, but losing to Temple, Portland, and DePaul didn't help. But I am thankful that UCONN, Marquette, and Xavier has kept the conference relevant while Nova's trying to figure things out ATM.

It would be the perfect year for you to shit on the A-10 by comparison as they have their worst performance in the Kenpom era.

That's actually a good point. Usually there are a few more weeks before some of these teams have an lost hope. I'd argue that Seton Hall might still have hope, but the advanced metrics aren't promising for them.

For sure. But they were so bad from the jump just about that it got to be almost too easy if you know what I mean.

Hey now, they have *three* top 100 teams.
