They are at #7 in the Sagarin ratings ahead of such teams as MD, UTenn, Duke, Stanford, UNC, and KY. The pollsters will doubtless rate the Tigers well back of that during the season, but they will eventually get ranked. Maybe #15 in the polls eventually at best with their schedule and undefeated run, but they will get some attention if they remain high in the Sags and Massey ratings. Seedwise, #6 is the best that mid majors have gotten recently in a case like theirs that does not involve someone like EDD.
