The rest of the season (men's basketball)

--right the bball forum makes me want to cry i

--hold on easiest 6 game stretch with kentucky & virgina in there? im confused?

 

Kentucky is tough, no doubt. But Virginia?

Here was our 6 game stretch:
Coppin State
NCC
Texas Southern
Kentucky
Virginia
Chaminade

No road games and only one of those teams has a winning record right now. Sure, Kentucky is ranked, but during conference we don't have a 6-game stretch that doesn't feature at least 2 (currently) ranked teams. So you can throw out any discussion of conference play as being an easier stretch.

I'll concede that the following 6-game stretch is probably a little easier:

Gardner-Webb
Oral Roberts
Cincinnati
Sacramento State
Central Arkansas
Maryland-Eastern Shore

Because they're all home games and there is no Kentucky. But, in my opinion, it's the only 6-game stretch that's comparable. Kentucky puts a lot of weight on that first 6-game stretch, but it was only one game. There were 4 cupcakes...including one from a lower division...and Virginia.

 

Virginia absolutely sucks as a team

 

If I've learned anything from college football, it's that being part of a bigtime conference is as reason as any think a team is good. And what conference is Virginia part of?

A-C-C! A-C-C!

oh gawd, if that ever started during another major sport season...
