I never knew this existed or was allowed. Is this a new thing or have we done this in the past?
Most teams have a closed scrimmage before the season along with one or two open exhibition games.

Matter of fact, Mizzou and Kansas are playing each other this weekend as a benefit for hurricane victims.

[FONT=proxima_nova_rgregular]Much like the team’s Tide Tipoff event earlier this week, Alabama’s freshmen stole the show. Former 5-star point guard [FONT=proxima_nova_ltsemibold]Collin Sexton[/FONT] led the team in scoring with 15 points, while local Hale County (Ala.) High School product [FONT=proxima_nova_ltsemibold]Herb Jones[/FONT] scored 12 points.[/FONT]
[FONT=proxima_nova_rgregular]The Crimson Tide’s leading scorers from last season also contributed 10 points each in [FONT=proxima_nova_ltsemibold]Braxton Key[/FONT] and [FONT=proxima_nova_ltsemibold]Dazon Ingram[/FONT]. Baylor was led by [FONT=proxima_nova_ltsemibold]Terry Maston[/FONT]’s 24 points off the bench.[/FONT]
[FONT=proxima_nova_rgregular]Alabama outscored Baylor 42-24 over the final 20 minutes of the scrimmage, connecting on 53.3 percent (16-of-30) from the field and 41.7 percent (5-of-12) from beyond the arc.[/FONT]

How good is Baylor this year? If they are fielding their usual competitive team, this is a good omen.

They're expected to be a tournament team from what I've seen.

Its a reason poll so take it for what its worth ... but AP has them at 24, one place in front of us, so RTR91 is correct they should have a very good team this year.

That was a solid win for the good guys, hoping they can keep building on it and gel as a team. I can't say enough how excited I am about the possibility of what this team can accomplish.
