I want no piece of Florida. I would rather play Houston.
They definitely look like a national title contender. The onky issue I could see is if they ran into a really good defensive team like Houston. Their 2 bigs look really good but I'm not sure if they could handle a physical team. They struggled against Tennessee who slows it down.

I think they could run with anyone in the country though.

He is good but I can’t take this Cooper Flagg lovefest. He is the second coming of Michael Jordan.

Talent wise, he’s the best in CBB for potential. But he’s not the best player right now. We get too focused on a player’s future while ignoring the here and now. Broome is a better player than him now.

Flagg will win the player of the year. Vitale is campaigning really hard for him. This is why despise Vitale

Life as an Iowa State fan: coming off a 3-game losing streak in which we started ranked 2/3 the same weekend both the #1 and #2 teams go down.

Losses aren’t done this season for any of the top 10 teams. We’ve got 3 very winnable games coming up. Get back to form and nothing is off the table. Go to Houston a a 4 game win streak and who knows.
