...playing in the Final Four and National Championship already when we really haven't beaten anyone that good. When we beat Marquette twice, Charlotte twice, win at Wake Forest, and beat Memphis at the Shoe....then I'll believe.

The good teams we have played, we just hit at the right time....we were peaking. We haven't played that well in like 3 or 4 games and I just get turned off by all the homers guaranteeing us to be in the Final Four. I just think you're in for a letdown.

We beat Xavier. Xavier was very overconfident. They were picked by most to win that game at home. The pressure was on them and they came out flat. It was the reverse of what usually happens.

We killed Mississippi State. Good win. Or was it? Miss. St. is projected to maybe not make the Big Dance. Louisville, South Florida? Both predicted for the NIT. Charlotte? Bubble team. Oklahoma State? We lost.

Who have we played? We have the worst SOS of anyone in the rpi top ten.

Cat's Claw....you go off spouting how we're gonna win the next three games like it's a given and that concerns me. You sound like a Kentucky fan.

My point is this: We're not playing as well as we were two weeks ago and the hardest part of our schedule is upon us. It just bothers me to hear assinine predictions when we have no barometer of where we really are. Sure, we're ranked number 4. We're 20-1 and they have to vote us that high....but we really haven't played anybody.

If we win the next 3......then it's true....we're number 4 and I'll be happy and I'll quit whining. But until then, I'll preach caution.
