Week 11 AP Poll

[4in16]

Obviously no huskies, but Duke did drop to 20 and UK dropped to 23 (shocking I know, neither dropped out). Others of note Maryland at 7, SMU 8 and our friends from RI at 16. Coaches poll remains a joke with Duke at 12 is all you really need to know, although UConn did receive votes 7th team out. http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball/rankings/ap

Two Big East teams in the top-5, pretty good.

Is 1 of them the team you root for? Or you still trying to live off the success of others?

A win over Duke greatly enhances your rep. Notre Dame got 14 votes with 5 losses, some to crappy teams. Wins over Duke and Iowa. Great wins, but they've taken bad losses and had one of the weakest OOCs.

Would not say any of their losses are crappy other than Alabama. They are #1 offensive efficiency team in the country. They seem to be ranked appropriately.

I don't live off of any college basketball teams success. I hope you don't either. You were eating popcorn, it wasn't much of a personal achievement.

You think Vandy football fans go to Florida State message boards to brag about Alabama and LSU? Do you seem how strange your presence is here? Very creepy.

Sorry, you have losses to Monmouth and Alabama, you have only one single decent OOC victory, you have 5 losses, I don't care if you play offense like Westhead's Denver Nuggets, but you should not be getting any votes.

One of them should be a lock to make the round of 32 this year!

So you have an issue with UConn receiving votes as well? ND has better wins, 0 losses outside the RPI Top 50, and a SOS a lot higher than UConn.

The last time a current member of the Big East won the NCAA hoops tourney, it was 31 years ago. To put it in perspective, the Shuttle Challenger hadn't exploded, the movies Top Gun and Ferris Bueller hadn't been made, and Jefferson Starship hadn't yet "Built This City".

Keep livin' the dream, bro...

Yea well, the last time UConn won it, there were only 6 Star Wars movies!

That's all wonderful information that has nothing to do with this thread.

I have no idea what they do, but I do know many UCONN fans are on many other teams boards.

You realize this is just the internet. Opening a browser page isn't exactly a difficult or time consuming thing to do.

???

UConn didn't get any votes, and i have no issues with the lack of them.

 

[HuskyNationJE]

Sort of surprised to see Clemson didn't make it in after beating Louisville, Duke and Miami back to back to back. I can't believe Duke stayed at 12 in the coaches poll. Unreal.

What's Duke's best win? vs. Indiana?

That's their only Top 50 win, sitting at 47.

Clemson has 6 losses which include a 17 pt loss to UMass, a 23 pt loss to Georgia and losses to Alabama and Minnesota. If they keep winning they'll be in but those are some ugly losses as it is they're the 2nd team out.
Clemsons RPI profile via ESPN currently 81, UConn is currently 64 for comparison. http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/rpi/_/groupId/2/teamId/228

Duke to 20.Wow, I cannot remember if Duke was ever down there in years. That must be a mistake or the AP is receiving pressure on doing the right thing. We have a real good home stand we will break the 25 again.

If Duke had this same home stand and swept they'd be back in the top 10, we'll be lucky to be 20-25 or the top half of receiving votes haha.

The coaches poll dropped ESPN (could've been the other way around, not sure) a few years ago, ESPN uses the AP rankings now. Just the USA today Coaches Poll now.
