I thought their projections used to be somewhat credible.

Yesterday, they had us as #1 (fine) projected to beat Baylor by 22 points (huh??).

Today, we're #5 (OK) with Missouri State as #6 (only 2 losses are good ones but they've beaten nobody), they have us beating Oregon by 18 (huh??) and losing at USC by 14 (plausible).

Plus they include a Louisville loss from January last year.

Explains why rating services should be taken with a grain of salt or at least put into context.

I think they put way too much on home court advantage and it really only looks at the schedule for weight. Baylor had only beaten one? ranked team before you guys.

Actually Baylor beat two ranked teams before UConn. USF was ranked #22 and Indiana was #17. Of course that was 2 months ago and USF has fallen off.

Not sure why anyone that follows the game would have had UConn favored over Baylor. With all the pieces back the match up favored Baylor. The same goes for the #1 ranking, Geno said it best.

No attack thatguyed but one has to hope you are taking better advice for your stock market retirement. No recommendation here but this team may be similar to RTRPI for some.
