Pretty crazy cause I see we somehow dropped in the Pomeroy rankings today.

After the last couple of games I think they need a stat called 'fate' points. 8-0 could easily have been 6-2 (or worse), but we have scored fate points that seemed to decide a couple of our victories. Its early, and we have not started conference play but our destiny is slowly materializing.

This ride we are on is very enjoyable but for me also stressful. Like being in a nice new car on an exciting drive to California continuously on low fuel looking/hoping for a gas station to appear. And just when you think the car will stop running a gas station appears. Not sure how far we will get but the ride is memorable. As I said enjoyable ride but also stressful.

I thought you were going to say the key stat on the 8-0 thing was "8 wins, zero losses"

The reason we are 8-0.

From what I've seen thus far that sticks out is the fact we've outscored all of our opponents in the first 8 games too......

I disagree... it's not that we've outscored all of our opponents as much as it is we've held them to less points that us.

Actually, not less points, but fewer points.
