I feel like this is going to be a bad season, but we'll see what happens. Despite 7 teams having the same or lower prestige, we're one of only 3 teams who doesn't even have a single orange guy. So initial RNG screwed us talent-wise.

Two games against winless Rice and Southern pad us to 4-3, but then 6th man multi-position Abraham Johnson is hurt for 11 days. Todd Carruth wins PotG in both victories; the other two PotG in our wins have been Gabriel Shanklin and William Kelly. Needless to say our fake ass 3 game win streak ends with a rout at Denver.

Beating a bad William & Mary team is good, but then we get screwed by the sim engine in a 48-50 L to 0-12 CSU Bakersfield. On our own court no less. The one thing I hate about FBCB is how many bullshit "You must lose this game" 2 point losses it tags you with, and the complaints about the upsets lack of realism in tournaments has a lot to do with that, I think. Then we lose to bad South Carolina State, also at home. So what should have been a good month pisses away to have us 5-6 and a 347th ranked RPI, which might be the worst in the entire country. ...Yep, it is!

Son of a bitch!!!!! We were leading the whole damn way, and were the only team to show him love, but Harland Sargent, an Oregon All-State player, up and takes a last second offer from Gonzaga. I blame you for this, Abe!

Scrubass Jose Noland is crying about lack of PT. Git gud.
