Why I expect us to be ranked this week in the Top 25...

In both polls, everyone ranked from 20 to 25 took at least one L this week with ISU taking two L's. Gonzaga, WSU, UF, Grand Canyon and SDSU all took care of business. Clemson and New Mexico took an L. TAMU took two losses. This bodes well for us slipping in at 25. I would assume when we were up by 25-points with just under nine minutes left, most pundits switched the game off. Just my two cents...

I think we gain a few votes but dont even hit top 30.

Hope I am wrong.

If we are taking predictions, I will go with #28.

We need to win the conference and see how far we get in the tournament.

We are really good fans, rooting for teams that have never actually won any championships, just have shown flashes.

Sheriff, your thread positive, I clicked on it because I was happy to see it - and it's great. 

It then made me think how low our bar is.

I am not even sure we would be ranked if we go 17-1 in the aac.  We are a good team in a bad league.

When do basketball rankings even come out? Can’t remember the last time I’ve ever thought it mattered to look, that I even have an opportunity to be disappointed or happy feels like a win.

There are so many teams that had more points in the other receiving votes category that I am not sure we make up that many spots this week.

We get more votes, but don’t crack top 25. We were getting only a few votes before.

A tough lesson kiddies:  Even if you are very, very good, you may not get everything you wish for.
