The truth is BYU and Bama would basically be in identical spots as far as having conference title game losses. The Bama argument is much greater SOS justifies inclusion over BYU. BYU did beat Utah, so that will get them in first.

I don't know. I think the 3rd loss being to a mediocre FSU team will be the bridge too far. It's not like the SEC wouldn't be getting enough representation without Bama.

It seems plausible that Bama loses in the SEC championship game and BYU loses in the Big 12 title game, Bama ends up with 3 losses and BYU 2. In a hypothetical Playoff 12: OSU, IU, A&M, Georgia, Ole Miss, Oregon, TTU, Oklahoma, ND, ACC champ, G5 champ - those seem probable. Then let's say...

Excited to see Amare develop here. Seems like a matter of time before he becomes a starter.

Good to have a come-from-behind victory. Great job by Tilly to have a very productive game and hit the winning shot. Awesome to see them win a close game - it seems like most of the time we end up losing those games. I feel like the strategic swap of offense for defense substitutions...

Bynum has been out there in place of Noel much of the half.

Mobley in to play the home stretch.

I've noticed not a ton of minutes for Mobley this half, as Cupps has been out there instead.

53-53 under 8 to go.

They're definitely riding the coattails of last season's team, but without Danny Wolf and Vlad Goldin, who were terrific. I don't think Lendeborg and Johnson are quite as good as the two bigs they had last year.

Kennard Davis, whom OSU recruited this past offseason, has been arrested in Provo, UT based on suspicion of DUI. This is a big deal at a program like BYU, as they seem to take the honor code seriously. Not sure if Davis will return to BYU after this...

Purdue got themselves a big scalp down in Tuscaloosa tonight. The Boilers dominated the glass 52-28 and had 19 offensive boards (Bama had 21 defensive rebounds).

I think he is better suited for the 4 for sure; however, who would OSU start at the 3 if Devin were the 4? That's the problem, there's no obviously better option because you don't want to put a non-scorer out there. Somehow we managed to lose a strong starter at SF and not add another SF in...

Right, they need someone like Brandon Noel to take charge when the offense is out of sync. He was 8-10 from the field today and the rest of the team was 14-44.

It was a very good game for Noel, but I do believe he could have gotten 20 if he had asserted himself a little more in the first half. It was not a particularly good performance by Tilly - 0-6 on 3s, 5 rebounds in 30 minutes against an undersized team, 9 points on 9 shots. OSU has got to have...
