Where will we be ranked?

Re: Where will we be ranked?

Well, I guess it just depends on how many of those unranked teams jump us. Looks like everyone just outside of the poll won this week.

#24 North Carolina lost

How many times has that sentence ever been written? They are really having a weird season.

I think UConn and Vandy will jump us for sure. New Mexico might, and I gave them the benefit of the doubt in my prediction, but I don't see UAB gaining enough ground to kick us out.

#26 Vanderbilt won twice
#27 UConn won twice (beat #1 Texas)
#28 New Mexico won twice
#29 UAB won twice
#30 Florida State won twice (beat #18 GT)
#31 Butler won twice

Unfortunately, I think all of those teams will jump us. Hopefully only for a week, though.

The biggest question mark is how the voters will respond to Baylor lossing a close game at KU. My guess is they either hold serve or drop one spot to #26.

You might be right, but it would take a pretty big push for UAB, Butler, and FSU to jump us. Voters only have so many votes and I'm hoping they get spread thin between all three.

UNI 252 votes
UAB 59 votes
FSU 41 votes
Butler 35 votes

I think we hang on at #24.

Re: Where will we be ranked?

I think we drop out. I'll say 27.

Re: Where will we be ranked?

Anywhere 28 or below is cool with me. That leaves us another 4-0 run of getting right back in, probably 2-0 run.

Re: Where will we be ranked?

27th seems about right.

Wow. I thought for sure we'd drop out of the coaches poll.

Now on to important business. Let's crush the dogs on Wednesday. They beat us at home last year and it's time to put them in their place. Let's get a rowdy crowd in the Mac and take out some shooting woes on the puppies.

Re: Where will we be ranked?

The loss at Wichita really turned off one of the voters. Mark Berman, who had UNI ranked 11th last week, doesn't even have them in his Top 25 this week. That's a bit harsh - to drop them out if you had them that high.

It looks like 18th or 19th is about as high as anyone had them. Bohnenkamp from Burlington had them 19th this week.

Re: Where will we be ranked?

That's ok. ESPN uses the coaches poll, so we will still run across the bottom line as a ranked team and get highlights on SportsCenter and College Basketball Final.
