[Illusion]

Got it, it's done. I will send looker the money through neteller tonight.

[bigboydan]

that works ILL, you got yourself a bet!

same rules as before. the loser gets a chance at a double or nothing ?

[Illusion]

You said between 8-10, so how about 9 or worse you win, 8 or better and I win.

[bigboydan]

Draw it up then.

rules are simple ILL, if FL has a lower than 8 ranking anytime during the month of january i win. if they are 7 or lower you win.


do we have a bet or not ?

[Razz]

Alabama for one ILL, also, Kentucky seems to have there number in recent years. not to mention the way tennessee is playing right now, they have a shot as well.

Hahahahaha. I just saw this post. Alabama is the third best team in the state (4th if you count Hoover High School). The only games Florida could lose, barring some complete collapse - I haven't looked at their schedule - would be at LSU, Arkansas, or Tennessee.

Seriously, though, I would bet any amount you wanted that Florida is in the top 7 on February 1st.

Draw it up then.

[bigboydan]

I don't have to prove myself, you already made yourself look silly in this thread. Did you notice how nobody agreed with you?

ILL, then why are you jumping all over this bet i put on the table then. i mean you think it's like stealing money, and your saying nobody in this thread thinks i have a chance of winning it. so, why not make the bet, and take the easy money

this is not a question of you having to prove yourself at all. it's mearly win or loss type wager.


how about the same bet we made right around x-mas time ($500) ??? ... pags can't bail you out this time

[Illusion]

oh, so your chicken uh ILL. now, why don't you cluck for everyone and, then i'll drop it all

[bigboydan]

Considering how much you know about the SEC it would be like stealing candy from a baby. I don't need your money that badly, lol.

Oh man. That sounds like a challenge. I will hold the post up.

no backpedaling here at all then. i say they drop to 8-10, or lower by the end of january.

do i hear a bet brewing here ?

[Illusion]

i guess we will just have to wait and see how FL. does this year in conference play. i still say they will fall out of the 2 ranking by the end of january though.

Nice job of backpedaling. It's not a far stretch saying they will lose the #2 ranking. One loss anytime in three weeks does that.

Dan, Alabama is done for the year losing their best player Chuck Davis...they sucked before that anyway...I think that Vandy and Arkansas could pose a small threat...LSU is definitely a contender, they are very athletic...but, Florida is definitely the favorite at this point...they are playing some very good basketball right now...

Not to mention Kentucky is having a down year. Florida should roll through the SEC.

[pags11]

Tennessee shoots well and has a good coach, but they lack true inside prescense...S. Carolina has two athletes, but very little depth...Kentucky must shoot better, in a couple of weeks they will probably be much improved with the return of Morris...I'm not sure if Ole Miss is that great, but their record is pretty good (product of a soft schedule and being taken lightly in the non-conference games, which won't happen for sure in conference)...

I disagree dan. Who else in the SEC is really gonna challenge them.

[bigboydan]

i know florida has oodles of talent on that team, but when they start up on there conference schedual. we will see them drop like a rock.

[Illusion]

I'm thinking about going against them when they head to East Lansing.

Smart move, they never win up there.

[Razz]

guys dj white just got hurt again

its the same foot but apparently in a different spot

kinda hurts indiana a bit although ben allen is decent

just a heads up if anyone thinks about a play on them in the future

Indiana jumped big time Ill, right into the Top 10. Killingsworth is a great forward, he will take Indiana far this season.

They said last year, that this year's Hoosiers could be a final four team. They are really starting to gel right now.
