Has to be Battle 4 Atlantis. That's our best chance at some really big time opponents and I love early season tournament formats. They're usually a great way to gage where your team is at. I'm a little surprised Cincinnati is getting all the votes. I'm not really looking forward to that abortion of a former great rivalry at all. The game should frankly not even be played, in my opinion. Alabama and Tennessee are on my next tier of big games I'm looking forward to. I love owning the SEC.

Of the actual scheduled games, UC. Nothing else is particularly appealing. Bama and Tennessee would be nice if the ball was oblong. The Battle For Atlantis has some potentially good matchups depending on how the bracket goes, though.

Seriously, why are we playing a mid major program on a neutral site? That should be a buy game in our house.

I would venture to say that for those of us outside Cincinnati, the UC game is seldom the highlight of the season, unless they are ranked. With the youth of this team I can't say I'm looking forward to Atlantis, but maybe I'll be surprised. More looking forward to Marquette, Villanova and Gtown, in conference. J Thompson III was in Indy for Heat Pacers last week, I wonder if he ventured down to Cintas, to check things out.

Tennessee since that's whereupon in-laws are from.
