19. Everybody ahead of us won except for Illinois. I think we pass them and Murray State who scraped by against a bad SEMO team.
Pretty sure he had us in the 20’s before the Nova game. Another pretty sizable jumpCBSSports.com has UConn #15 (before today's games though).
UConn is 12-7 in the first two quadrants with victories over Auburn and Marquette. The Huskies' next game is Sunday at Georgetown.
I guess Gary Parrish wasn't too impressed with UConn's win over Villanova.
College basketball rankings: Gonzaga remains atop Top 25 And 1 despite season-finale loss to Saint Mary's
A historic day across college hoops the top six teams in the AP Top 25 poll lose on the same daywww.cbssports.com
You good, you don't have to explain yourself. We all look at the schedule in the beginning of the year, for example, and try to guess which games we will win. That's Fandom 101. "Focusing on the game at hand" is a coach-speak media lie, even for players and staff. Hurley and the boys are aware of other games, and they are definitely looking forward to the tourney. Don't get it twistedTo reiterate - was hoping we could use this thread to track games this weekend that could impact our ranking Monday, and assumes (mojo I know) we don’t fall into the Georgetown trap game Sunday.
Murray also beat Belmont by 33. Belmont would probably upset Providence in the 1st round if they ever got in. Ohhh but that's right Providence is a 2 or 3 seed so that can't happen! lol19.

Arkansas had won 11 of their last 12 games after that week with the only loss being at a top 25 team by 1 point. Went from 54 to 19 in KenPom over that stretch. The polls were adjusting.Last week Arkansas vaulted up 5 spots from 23 to 18, and they beat the #16 seed in Tennessee at the time, at home. I don’t see any way we don’t jump up at least 3-4 spots this week with that win over #8 Villanova, we deserve to be a top 15 team the way we are playing. We shall see.
I know what youre saying but don't you think rankings influence seeding?Rankings couldn’t mean less at this point. It’s all about seeding.
