    Correction to the OP – (guess I missed the edit time window)

    Davidson left the SoCon, not the Big South … apologies – I got my ‘Southern’ conference names mixed up … I know better 🙁

    Temple came back and beat a good La Tech team. Pack plays La Tech in December and they are real good. Long and athletic. From what little I saw of them last night they remind me of Florida Gulf Coast two years ago.

    Because the freshman guards the rat signed are playing. Suliamon and Cook are the casualties of this Kentucky like class.

    Already tired of the words ‘platoon’ and ‘reinforcements’.

    Northeastern 76 @ Florida State 73 – http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/gametracker/recap/NCAAB_20141118_NEAST@FSU

    This one will not sting nearly as bad as the Clemson loss at home to Winthrop, but it’s still not preferable in so far as league RPI goes. Northeastern is a solid mid-major and should once again contend for the Colonial crown, plus they could finish with a sub-100 RPI.

    These early league home losses may not matter as much since the league has 15 teams and is deep, but it would be preferable for everyone in the league be around sub-150 in the RPI. In other words, every league OOC game counts, and home losses are particularly hurtful for both individual teams and the league as a whole.

    Someone has to finish 15th, but once a team starts pushing 200+ in the RPI (like BC last season) it really starts to affect all other teams’ respective RPI. Something to keep an eye on, for sure.

    The only exception for me is the Cheats. I’d be fine if they lost every game ever and always had an RPI of 500+.

    One other score to note from Tuesday night: Jackson St. 66 – Jacksonville 57. The Pack beat Jackson State soundly in the opening game of the season and face Jacksonville on Thursday evening.

    … anybody else already tired of hearing how ‘great’ Cal and his Cats are this season ??
    … anybody wanta bet a buck that if ProTucky played in the ACC — they’d lose two this season ?

    Why not.. Just go ahead and buy ’em some big rings and let the rest of us play for the real Championship on a level playing court…

    If we could figure out how to organize this so it costs the almighty NCAA some serious bucks… maybe …

    A change is GOTTa come…
    sooner or later….

    I wonder what kind of stats Amile Jefferson would have had at State. He played 21 minutes and had 6 points against Spartans.

    Bill, did u use disappearing ink as well on the 5 college fb dumpster fires thread?

    Haha, I love when people qualify the hell out of things.

    The win is the 45th straight at home against unranked nonconference opponents for the Razorbacks (2-0)

    Three qualifiers to get that impressive sounding 45 number. At home. Unranked. Non-conference.

    UNCC beats Penn St. and South Carolina on consecutive nights. Charlotte plays Miami on Sunday for Charleston Classic championship then have them again in Charlotte on Tuesday. Gotta post it now that my kid’s a Niner. Can almost smell the Cornbread.
