and Butler goes down by 17.

23 turnovers. yikes.

[Angry Norwegian]

Alright, I'm officially baffled by this season of CBB. Kansas goes down at home.

No dominant team is right. No matter who wins this Michigan/IU game, we've learned that there's no squad that can go out there and get a guaranteed win any given night. The tournament should be fun as hell to watch this year.

[Angry Norwegian]

My prediction is that IU dismantles Michigan by 15+, and then promptly loses to either Illinois or OSU on the road.

#1 is a curse. So is #'s 2-8, come to think of it. No one stands out in this top 25, and I love it. I might take a team like Miami over anyone in the top 5.

Yeah I'm not liking Michigan's chances tonight at Assembly Hall, especially with how poorly they did @OSU when the crowd seemed to have an effect. If Columbus was bad, this could be a disaster. OR, maybe Michigan learned from that (they did pull a 2nd half comeback) and will have a different mindset tonight.

I'm not getting my hopes up

Points to your for being honest.

Agreed. We still have @ Minny/Michigan/MSU/Illinois/OSU...we'll lose at least one of those games but no more than two.

I'll be at the Illinois game so let's not hope it happens then ray:

New top ten:

1. Indiana
2. Florida
3. Michigan
4. Duke
5. Kansas
6. Gonzaga
7. Arizona
8. Miami
9. Syracuse
10. Ohio State

I don't know why Duke is ranked ahead of Kansas based on the way both teams have been playing lately. And Michigan should still probably be ranked ahead of Florida. We've been beating the crap out of people but they have a better resume to this point and also beat one of the teams we lost to at about the same point of the season.

Dino Gaudio on ESPN said he would take Florida over Indiana on a neutral site. I'd love to see that game.

[Angry Norwegian]

Really no problem with the rankings. All teams deserve to be where they are. In my heart of hearts I want to switch Miami and Gonzaga, because I just don't believe in Gonzaga as a team on the par with the rest of the top 10. But that's just my prejudice-- they're play warrants where they are. I just don't think they'll pass the Sweet 16.

Their resume is definitely better than Kansas's at this point. They deserve to be ranked higher with a recent Kansas loss.

[Angry Norwegian]

Florida getting smacked at Arkansas. Look for them to drop to 5-7.

I saw they are getting thumped right now by Arkansas, but I'm still taking Florida to win the title.

[Angry Norwegian]

I am so ****ing excited for the tourney this year. So much parity it's insane.

It's not even halftime for a team that's capable of holding an opposing team to 20 in a half.

[Devils05]

That's good since theyre down 17 at half

[Catfish1314]

As a Florida fan, I'm glad to see it. We've destroyed every team we've played since December 22nd. We needed to be humbled.

Arkansas couldn't miss in the first half. That's not likely to continue.
