small jump, 22. These guys don't actually watch the games - they'll look at the record or at BEST peek at kenpom.

#24 Texas A&M lost a couple to unranked teams - they fall out.
#21 Dayton lost to unranked UNLV
#20 Michigan lost to unranked AZ St
#19 Illinois beat #8 UCLA and lost to #16 Virginia - not sure they move much maybe into the 20s as UCLA also lost to #5 Baylor who also lost. Hard to figure how they see UCLA and how much movement there will be based on all that.
#15 TCU lost to unranked Northwestern St Demons - they should drop

I would expect we end up at 18 or 19. Mich St could jump us beating #4 Kentucky and Nova.

I'm actually thinking a decent hop, up to 18. Lots of losses ahead of us, taking care of business without any issues so far too

#24 Texas AM should drop out completely.
#23 Texas Tech won a close game against Louisiana Tech.
#22 Tennessee won against FGCU
#21 Dayton lost against UNLV and beat Robert Morris
#20 Michigan lost to ASU and barely beat Ohio
#19 Illinois beat UCLA and lost to UVA
#16-18 all won out.
#15 TCU lost to NW State(who?) and beat UL Monroe

I could see UConn passing Texas AM, Dayton and Michigan. Illinois could actually move up a spot (over TCU) or two (UCLA?). The question is what voters do with MSU and Purdue, who are the two most likely teams to enter the polls next. I imagine MSU leapfrogs UConn, so UConn slots in at 23, possibly 22 if TCU freefalls.

Kentucky was their only quality win and it was because they were overrated
Agreed, but voters may not and to be fair UK is still miles better than any team UConn has played. Not to mention MSU wasn't far off the votes UConn got last week (5 point difference). Slotting them ahead of UConn wouldn't be a surprise at all.

No argument from me that they've had a way harder schedule. Personally dont care about rankings, the early season ones are meaningless. Just keep winning.

Went with 22. We’ve looked great, but most voters aren’t watching the games so think we just move up by default from some of the other aforementioned teams losing. Hopefully we go 3/3 this week at PK5 and get into the top 15.

22. We will pass TCU, Michigan, Texas A&M, and Dayton who all lost, but Michigan State will pass by us.
