I watched the whole game and the only things that I saw (instead of sometimes many things last year) were bad shot selections being made from a few guys early in possessions, and Oglesby's poor ball handling skills. The boy can flat-out shoot, but seems nervous/lazy with the ball (depending on the situation).

I'm sick of the rankings, we're clearly a top 10-15 team right now...

We'll see. If they keep winning, the rankings will be fine.***

yeah and the ones that really make me mad are Tennessee(after losing to liberty, whom we beat)being ranked ahead of us at 16.... And Notre Dame being in the top 10 with 2 losses is just a crock. There are 4 two loss teams in the top 10 right now. #1 in the RPI and we can't get bumped ahead of 2 loss teams. I'm confused

The rankings are what have made me so mad about a lot of teams and specifically Duke, ND, and MSU of late. My question is why do we need to be in the top 10? Although i agree it would be nice for a Clemson program that deserves to be in the top 10 to be rated equally with the other programs around the country it would be nicer if we shut up all of the AP's mouths about UNC going undefeated and beat them like we should have 3 times last year (up at the half in all 3 games). Better yet what about a little tourney run and make it to the final four or even just the elite eight. I think that would gain the BB program as much notoriety as being in the top 10 all year and (being as bad as ND really is) getting dropped like a bad habit from a higher (probably 4 or 5 seed) ranking in the tournament. In season rankings are garbage and so biased on what the program should be not what they really are i.e. Louisville, Tennessee, and Michigan State and the other two from above. All of those teams are worse than they have been in recent years and they are only rated above us for their perceived quality. I have some news HOT off the press: Perceived Quality does not equate to wins. Everyone will (hopefully) see how much better we are than MSU, ND, Purdue, Louisville, and Tennessee when we play the "powerhouses" of the ACC. (MD, UNC and Duke)
Other than that AMAZING game coached by OPP in Coral Gables, totally took Miami out of their offense and made them one dimensional (shooters) which Miami certainly is not. And another great game for K.C. hopefully he saves some of those points for the tourney!

How bout Tanner Smith. His defense looks really good. He drew a good bit of praise from the announcers for his D. His offense scares me. Hopefully he will grow out of it but, his passes are LAZY. Kind of reminds me of the passes Jurkunius made a few years back.
