Men's Bracketology: We will ask again for the 25th time ... is this the Big Ten's season?

Nine Big Ten members are listed in our latest bracket, and every one of the First Four Out group -- Nebraska, Maryland, Wisconsin and USC -- are Big Ten members.

I know that it is an extremely long season, but it is worth noting that the NCAA tournament returns to Birmingham this year. What if??

ROLL TIDE!!!!

I realize this is a different team, but we were having this exact conversation at this point last year.

the only way last year`s team could win was to hit 15 or more threes. this team play defense and rebounds as well as any bama team i can remember.

Like I said, different team. However, we were just as optimistic about that team last year before we figured out that they had weaknesses that just hadn't been exposed yet.

we will not win all of our games but this year's record will be better.

One thing that is becoming apparent is that if a team clamps down on Miller, he can flat be shut out on the offensive end at this point. Granted, we have won both games that has happened, but it has happened twice. We have alot of great players to pick up the slack. We are as deep as we've been in years.

I don’t like that bracket. I do not want our second round game against Creighton.

No question last year was disappointing and frustrating, but in the context of 3 decades of Alabama basketball it was one of the best seasons we’ve had. If last year is the team people point to as an example of a disaster that’s incredible.

Projecting brackets 3 months out is a lil too early for me. There are too many games yet to be played and a myriad of unforeseen circumstances that may occur.

 

[StablerCountry]

That is just rat poison. But I did enjoy the read.

Creighton is not a good team

Creighton is not a good team

I just recall us being matched up against them a couple of times before, and they seemed to have our number. Not that it would translate to this season.
