Sagarin (RPI) Top 25 BE teams...

[speedoo]

thru yesterday's games:

2-UConn
3-ND
15-RU
17-Hoyas
19-WVU
21-Ville
25-DePaul

All 7 are NCAA locks, plus SJU at 35 and you have 8 BE teams in right now. Cuse and South Florida in the 60's have work to do just to get on the bubble.

Other conferences top 25:

Big 12: 5
ACC: 4
Pac 12: 1
SEC: 3
B1G: 3 (incl. Nebraska)

Mid majors: Delaware, Green Bay

Sagarin

Prior to yesterday's surprising result, Sagarin already had UConn #2 in his combined rankings. ELO-Chess had UConn #3, and the Predictor had UConn #1. UConn is now #2 and #1, respectively. Interesting that the Predictor regression (I'm assuming) analysis has UConn so far ahead of Baylor. Hopefully this plays out in reality.

Villanova is by no means a lock. Far from it, actually.

Sagarin has Villanova at 45. Bubble team right now I guess.

I misread "Ville" for Villanova. My bad. I think the Big East is pretty close to having seven locks.

Villanova's RPI is 20. That quite a disparity.

Indeed. But 20 makes no sense to me at all, while 45 does.
