squad. I'm not too concerned about the Memphis loss, but to get pushed around by the backups of a team that won't be better than an 8-seed screams bubble watch (or NIT) to me. And that's really disappointing considering the expectations I had coming into the season. Aluma in particular hasn't been anywhere near as good as I thought so far.

Maybe it's my own fault for believing an experienced team could compete in a down ACC this year.
