That is one brutal conference schedule this year. They'll lose a few of those game for sure. Even if they go 5-5, they should still be top 20 in my opinion. They are a fun team to watch this year since they are very well balanced. My only criticism which I always have of Jim Boeheim is that he only plays a 7 man rotation. His top players are shot by the end of the year typically. It is not like he doesn't have a reasonably deep bench either. Just his thing. He keeps his best players on the floor for more time so you can argue he is putting his best team out there but players are not machines. They get tired. He also alienates and pisses off the guys he doesn't play. Most guys don't bitch if they play 30 minutes instead of 40 minutes but players transfer when they play 0 minutes instead of 10.

Tulsa made a basket to go up by 1 pt with about 4.5 seconds left. Then Memphis drives the floor, everyone is scared to foul and a running layup goings in just as time expires. Memphis won and Tulsa was denied being the first conference opponent to beat Memphis since something like 1978 (ok a bit of an exaggeration). No mention of the Memphis Tulsa game.

Yeah, he had a shit game this past sunday. not saying he is the best QB in the league, but rarely is the best player getting paid the most. He is worth the big raise.
