We are probably overlooking how bad the league is this year due to our own underachieving.
Was really looking forward to American basketball this season. It’s a one bid league. Those NET numbers will not change in favor of a 2nd bid once league play starts.
The worst part was watching all of these feast week tournaments - it felt like every team I was watching that wasn’t in our league was starting the season with a recent best or even record start. So many 7-0 and 6-1 teams. They’re flooding the NET rankings ahead of our league teams.
I’m actually surprised the AC debuted at #11. Sure didn’t think it would be Tulsa propping things up!
UAB was up 33-32 over MTSU at half tonight… Gonna lose by almost 20.
smdh.
