Early Polls 2-6-2006

Its not a major poll, but CBSsportsline has moved us UP in rankings.

Northern Iowa #18, and these guys had us ranked a week before we were ranked and last week as well. Lets hope this trend continues.

GO PANTHERS!!!

I think we will hang on in the Coaches poll and drop out of the AP. There were a lot of teams around us that lost as well!!

Even though they have a datestamp of today, I don't think this is their updated poll yet. They had us at #18 last week. Also, it doesn't look like any of the comments, or the weekend games are reflected (Illini, Okie losses, etc.) I hope I'm wrong though!

If I remember correctly, the Sportline poll gets updated around Noonish...

It's possible, not likely, but possible, that they will give credit to Creighton, and not take it away from us for that game. Could we stay in, and Creighton join us??

FYI, sportsline also has Creighton projected as a 5-seed, UNI as a 7.

I'm thinking we'll hang on in both. UNC will move into the AP but I have this weird feeling we'll stay in and LSU will drop out just because we beat them and they lost more recently. I know I can't really count on the pollsters to take that all into account, but I like to have dreams. I think in the Coaches Maryland and Colorado drop out and Iowa & UNC jump in and we move down to 25.

Time will tell, I guess.

I think Kansas, UAB, Creighton, and Seton Hall will pick up votes and make a push. Michigan's pounding at the hands of Iowa will cause them to drop some, but probably not past us. We will probably lose a lot of votes to Creighton because I'm sure pollster would never vote 2 MVC teams in the poll at the same time.
