We have two top 5 wins, you count where the team is when you beat them. For tourney purposes where the team is at the end of the year counts. You cannot pick any arbitrary ranking date during the year. Iowa was not top 5 when ISU beat them, I guess OK and KU were. Iowa will not be at year end, one of those B12 teams probably will be.

For "glass-half-full" perspectives...

- UNI beat a #1-ranked team (UNC)
- UNI beat a team that beat a #1 ranked team (ISU over Oklahoma)
- UNI beat a team that beat a team that beat a #1 ranked team (ISU over Iowa over Michigan State)
- UNI beat a team that beat a once-ranked #1 team this season (ISU over Kansas)

I haven't done the "6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon" to figure out if Kentucky falls into the UNI over #1 team discussions!!

For "glass-half-empty" perspectives...

- UNI lost to Loyola...at home...by double digits.

...we can leave that last one out...

I think it is legitimate to list who you beat in two ways:

1. What were they ranked when you played them?
2. What are they ranked at a particular time that is relevant, such as today or the end of the regular season?

If you do anything else, you should explain it as "we beat # teams who have been ranked in the Top # at some point this season."

It doesn't happen often, but I find myself agreeing with Gonzo here. I think where a team is ranked where you play them is what counts. I would also add that if Iowa wins the Big 10 with 6 or less overall losses (and they're playing really well right now), they could be a Top 5 team at the end of the regular season.

OK St at Kansas.

I'd really like to play OK St in the tournament. Chris Olivier players there now.

Our game against the Shockers almost feels like a bit of a fluke. But five in a row is five in a row.

We have defeated a #1, #5, and #25. Yet lose twice to a #238 team. A lot of it is because of lack of shooting/motion offense. I think we will see quite a few zones to induce perimeter shots.

I hear you on "lack of motion". If an opponent takes away Wes' ability to penetrate, we're a very easy team to defend. And that #238 team if is terrible matchup for us offensively. Or, put another way...we're enough of a "one trick pony" (so to speak) that the #238 team who does play in your face D can present us real problems on a consistent basis.
