Tomorrow’s AP Ranking

Before these rankings come out i realize I really only want a 1-3 seed in the tourney. AP position dont matter to me as long as we start to see a team that can go toe to toe with the top 5 teams in the country. This is the time of year where that starts to happen.
 
I'd be surprised if we drop lower than 5, and my guess is 4. There was a huge gap between Duke and Illinois at 4 and 5 and they both lost as well. I expect UConn, Duke, Iowa State to be 3,4,5 and all within about 15-20 points of each other in some order

For a reference, F68 has UConn at 4. Borges moved Houston to 3, kept Duke at 4 and UConn to 5 based on the eye test with Duke.

St. John's is definitely moving up, probably a few spots. That was their A game right there and they beat us fair and square. Cannot wait until the 25th in Hartford so we can put some revenge on them.
 
I think #7 or #8 would be about where belong. St John's is not a very good team, but upsets do happen. Also, the strength (or lack of strength) of the Big East Conference as a whole will result in UConn dropping down more in the rankings which is fair.
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.
