    Quality wins picked up last night

    Last night, some of our non-conference foes picked up wins. UW-GB, Loyola, UMKC, and NW St. all picked up wins. The only team to lose (as far as I can tell in the non-conference schedule) was Iowa St.

    Our Sagarin ranking is now up to 22nd nationally.
    Our Pomeroy ranking is now 15th nationally.
    And our Pomeroy RPI ranking is now 44th nationally (very close to the actual RPI formula).

    First and foremost, UNI needs to keep winning (which this road swing will be tough). Second, we need the non-conference foes to continue to pick up wins. It makes our wins look that much better. If that happens, we could be looking at a nice spot on ESPN/ESPN2 for Bracket Busters, and solid post season standing (not making long term predictions just yet...it's way too early).
    The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

    I watch this stuff...

    too and my friends all "poo-poo" it and tell me it doesn't matter. I think it's such a big part of getting an at-large bid these days. If you can go into selection Sunday and tell the committee that our record is 23-7 and our opponent's win-loss record is 130-85 or something like that...it means a lot.
