NC State finishes with its highest final ranking in the AP Top 25, tying the #3 final ranking of the 1977-78 squad.

Oregon must be an SEC school--doesn't matter how many games they lose, they stay in the poll.

Ohio St. is kinda suspect as well. I think the voters really, really didn't bother trying on this last poll.

There's always lots of inertia in the AP poll.

Oregon must be an SEC school--doesn't matter how many games they lose, they stay in the poll.

Same goes for Oregon State baseball,

Looks like AP might have been a better forecast of tourney seedings than the "official guide, the NET. (The NET program obviously has a flaw where Oregon is concerned)
