Auburn Non-Conference Basketball Schedule is a Joke

[Marshal Dillon]

I loved hearing the announcers talk about how the Auburn BB program has been "revitalized" by Coach Barbee this year during a game Friday night (12/23) in a basketball tounament in Hawaii. Aubarn was playing Longbeach State and the announcers kept talking about Auburns improvement and their 8-1 reecord. Well, Auburn lost the game 63-42. Plus, here's the schedule the "improved" Auburn tigers have played:


McNeese St.   84-62
Kenesaw St.   68-55
Nicholls          78-57
Arkansas-Pine Bluff   72-59
Seton Hall      59-81 (loss)
South Florida  52-40
North Florida  84-71
Florida A&M    76-69
Hawaii            65-62
Longbeach St  43-64 (L)
UTEP              76-83 (L)

Coming up:

Ga. Southern
Bethune-Cookman
FSU


Aubarn will get crushed when they start playing real teams in the SEC.

FSU should crush them as well.

Not only that. The OC/DC position they are trying to fill the wish list for them is getting smaller. Good times.RTR!!!

The barn basketball program is in terrible shape. Their RPI is 154 with a SOS of 318. One of the weakest SOS in the country. They only play 3 quality teams in non-conference play. The other 11 games have RPI of over 200.

The RPI of 154 does not account for losing to UTEP last night. UTEP has a RPI of 214. That is what you call a bad loss. The RPI will be adjusted to include that loss later today.

Compare those numbers to ours. We have a RPI of 19 and a SOS of 10.

Has everyone forgotten who the heck we are talking about, Auburn? To these folks, a win is a win it is not who did they beat.

The boogers RPI dropped to 185 after losing to UTEP last night.

The play I seen against UTEP, they looked weak. Kentucky will by 40, lol. I'm not sure who they can beat in SEC, nobody I guess. That is not improvement but they are on the same line as last year. RTR!
