Donna Ditota from Syracuse is still not a fan.

Neither is the Kansas guy at the Athletic, and definitely not the Villanova fan who is perennially against UConn: Jeff Neiburg at College Poll Tracker

Of the national guys, Borzello, Rothstein and Seth Davis are out to lunch: Seth Davis at College Poll Tracker

11th. Behind Baylor!!!!!

Seth and Jeff are absolutely absurd with their rankings. Who can take them seriously?

With no teams really playing any great competition putting UConn 11th is a disgrace coming off back to back titles. I say that from a lack of respect standpoint after just 2 weeks. If we were to get smoked in Maui that’s one thing but now? He is a total POS.

Thoughtful analysis.

Auburn won at Hoston. Kansas beat UNC. Baylor beat Arkansas but then got pasted by Gonzaga. There have been a few meaningful games.

Seth Davis picked the Zags 3rd and us 11th. I wouldn't want it any other way

If he actually had to put his money where is mouth is, I have beach homes all over the world

So how does that work out to 11th?

It doesn’t. Those are just games that could cause particularly big moves this time of year. We haven’t played anybody yet but I would think we’ve earned the benefit of the doubt to the tune of a ranking higher than 11.

The guy from the Daily Memphian is also not a fan. Yet.

Ya think? That’s Seth Davis hating UConn. Good, it’s bulletin board material for Hurley. The rankings are meaningless crap at this point and we could certainly lose games coming up.
Wonder if it bothers Hurley or the staff, the lack of respect for the program?

Rothstein ranked us sixth. Vaguely annoying, given how much smoke he blows up everybody's butt preseason.

The guy in the Athletic has UConn 8th then got feisty in the comment section when several folks said he was killing his credibility.

I guess it’s reasonable not to get angry about these rankings until we actually play and beat competition. It was just seeing the 11 from that guy that was like a bull seeing red.

Seth poses as a pretty objective fun loving guy, and not someone that deliberately under ranks one team. It’s been fairly thematic that he ranks UConn below the curve. As a Duke grad maybe this is just deep in his subconscious.

I’m ok with any ranking up till 8-9 as I get it, 4 new starters and haven’t won a meaningful game, Yada. But once out of the top ten, it starts feeling forced.
