St. John’s is good. They should be # 16 or 17.

They’re very good. Their FC is top 10. Mitchell is a one of a kind switch army knife.

If they can get Sellers, Darling and Jackson figuring it out, they’re formidable.
 
St. John's will rise in rankings but they still have too many losses to rise too much so a soft landing from 13-18 depending on all others movements.

We should be between 5-8 I would guess - maybe an hour away from Week 15 poll released.

Number 3-6 all very tightly clustered. I wonder if the AP voters feel the same, and the Selection Committee as well.

Unfortunately, even if we're firmly cemented in the top 6, I don't have much confidence in the Committee to keep us above Duke as #1 in the East, or even to avoid disadvantaging us with Houston in the South.

Houston moving up 5 spots is gross. Does anyone really think they’re better than the teams they passed?

7 more regular season games to play for UConn, more for other top 10 teams - this is fluid.

They say they discount or ignore the league tourneys, but c’mon early exits do penalize.

This will be different again in a week.

I'm fine with this. Good loss. Let's keep moving. Excited about the future and all the fill in the blank platitudes

Hard to argue with it. I'm glad Houston got to the 3 as it's deserving base on how they are playing and the eye test. Right now, like Vegas, I'd put us at around the 6th best to to win an NC. I'd be pretty happy with an Elite 8 based on expectations.

I take solace in the fact that we probably won’t be seeing a coach on Pitino’s level (unless it’s Pitino himself) until the elite eight, and our talent and coaching will carry us past any combination of coaching/talent/experience in the first 3 rounds

You should not be. It discredits our non conference and devalues the big east further. Good guys will end up a 2 or 3 seed. Any p4 with our out of conference would be a 1.
 
My only beef is being ranked below Iowa St. Following their consecutive losses to Kansas by 21 (who UConn beat) and Cincinnati (.500 team at 57 in Kenpom), Iowa St has won 5 straight against teams with a combined 18-33 in conference record. No rational reason for Iowa St to jump other 2 loss teams. The Iowa St conference schedule is brutal with upcoming games against Kansas, Houston, BYU, Texas Tech and Arizona.

Think we are looking @ #6- if we are lucky #5.

If Michigan wins today- see below for what I believe will be the outcome;

1- Arizona
2- Michigan
3- Houston
4- Iowa St.
5- Duke
6- Connecticut

This is why we don't worry about it. They'll lose two of those at least.

Def arguable, really a coin flip. We'll see how good they are in the next month. That Cinci loss does smell.

We'll see - if we get a 2 seed, we'd be playing 3's in the S16 - would be some good coaches in that mix. I think we can definitely see very good coaches in the S16.
 
Plenty to help UConn move the needle with the tight range for next poll:

Quad 1 Opportunity
On Wednesday, Quad 1Z win available at a Butler team that’s 3-10 against Quads 1 & 2 this year.

Potential Q1 Win Upgrades
Villanova (32) is knocking on the door of upgrading that home W to a Quad 1 and Creighton (78) away W as well.
 
Not surprised Iowa St and Houston slotted above us

Surprised Duke didn’t move at all. From 1314 votes to 1254 but they stay at #4. Although losing another 60 points now would drop them to 7, which is where I thought they’d be today

Kansas and Illinois top 10, Florida top 15 is really good for us. BYU dropped a lot but still ranked

St John’s is knocking on the top 15 door. Up to 17

Villanova 5th team out
