Undefeated teams left 23/24

It looks like Princeton is going to prevent us from picking up much territory--they have a pretty easy scheule coming up
Indeed! They have a real shot at going undefeated. In which case, even if UConn also went undefeated, UConn wouldn't gain any more territory than they have now.
 
Genuinely, who stops Liberty if they beat FAU somehow on the 30th?

The top 5 AP ranking is going to be super interesting today.

#1 lost to #4 but beat #7
#2 beat #4, 7, and 11
#3 beat #21
#4 beat #1 but lost to #2
#5 beat #15
#6 didn’t lose but didn’t beat anyone impressive

Do you not punish guys for losing to elite teams and go Purdue/Marquette/Kansas/Arizona/UConn?

Or do you reward the guys that are still undefeated and go Purdue/Arizona/UConn/Houston/Marquette?

I suspect we will stay at 5, KU will be 4.

Really doesn’t matter though. Win on Friday and it all takes care of itself. Same thing with the converse.
 
Doesn't really matter, but let's remember that it's not like Kansas lost a close game—they got absolutely smacked.

Bradley and Evansville are eliminated.

20 teams remain.

5 undefeated teams are in action Friday.
 
The six undefeated teams in the Big 12 have collectively played two games against ranked teams: San Diego State and USC, neither of whom is currently ranked. I know we're doomed tonight, but that is some of the softest, most pathetic early-season scheduling I've ever seen.
 

I really want to win and for Princeton to lose so that we can annex New York and nearly the entire megalopolis (yes I know that's not how it works and JMU's region would take ~half of Princeton's too).
 
UConn and Purdue are eliminated.

16 teams remain.
 
8 undefeated teams are in action Saturday.

Houston undefeated non-conf schedule is always so weak...Utah & X best games...but somehow always tops in KenPom, they've mastered the KenPom scheduling code. First year in loaded Big12 so they will have better schedule than normal at least.
 
Western Carolina is eliminated.

15 teams remain.
 
4 undefeated teams are in action tomorrow.

Here's a question for @kobe

As you were able to out fight Howard and maintain unbeaten status, how do you believe you'd fare against James Madison on a neutral court?
