Actually the early games don’t count as much as the recent ones with the pollsters. The vast majority of computer ranking systems have us ranked in the top ten. The voters in the polls have us ar #24 precisely because of the recent losses. Big difference between #24 and #7 which is the neighborhood where most of the computers have us.

Rankings are by definition a comparison. So, it’s not a question of whether we belong in the top 25, it’s who you would bump up into the top 25 in place of us.

While we’re at it, will you also be dropping Miami from the top 25. They’re 3-4 in January. How about TCU? Dropping them too? They’d also gone 3-4 in their last 7 games. Look at Kansas. What are they still doing in the top 10 after losing 3 of their last 4? Everyone in this group have obviously become different teams lately and are not deserving of being ranked regardless if wgphat they did earlier.

Are you talking with the NBA about revising their standings too so that league standings are only based on recent games and earlier results are expunged?
