Old guy Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Being undefeated is like being a virgin, it does not last for the duration, there is always a first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papal Posted December 11, 2019 Author Share Posted December 11, 2019 We are probably better than 3 of the undefeateds: Liberty, Duquesene, San Diego State; We will find out about Auburn. Ohio State would be a stretch (maybe I'm drinking the koolaid) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old guy Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Go drink the Koolaid and enjoy it, we do have a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Diego State has some nice wins, against BYU there, and Creighton and Iowa in Vegas. They are good. As I posted on another thread, they are our A10-MWC Challenge opponent next season, here. Already looking forward to that game. The MWC will be a multi-bid conference this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes.....please note the A grade by SDSt vs Aub which is an A+ team. Personally , I don't think any teams will go undefeated this year....It is a matter of when not if.

Old guy Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Apologize, the idea is that both virgin nuns and undefeated basketball teams are extremely scarce. They do happen but very infrequently. Are we OK now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing we should all have learned is that during certain activities there should be no recording devices of any kind, to avoid unpleasant "situations."

Old guy Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 This is great! Now we have 4 teams that have gone undefeated for a whole season. I know the heyday of UCLA was in the 1960s. So, it has been almost 60 years since the heyday of UCLA and only 4 teams out of about 300+ D1 teams playing every single year (maybe a lower number of teams in the earlier years) for 60 years have reached the distinction of going undefeated for the duration. It seems to me this is a pretty rare event, and I cannot but wonder if, or how, timely help or confusion from someone helped them get there along the way. Mistakes and errors do happen. So, I will maintain my view that Auburn is still a virgin waiting for that fateful night when some team will bring them down. It may not be us but someone will. I hope it is our privilege to bring them down. We can do it. Go Bills! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
