I would say UCONN somewhere around 19 or 20, even tho based on our record, etc, we should be higher.

You think so? At this time of the season - I wouldn't be surprised to see Michigan drop to 18 and us get to 19 or 20.

Seeding at the moment:
#1 Cincinnati vs #8/#9 USF/UCF
#2 Louisville vs #7/#10 Rutgers/Temple
#3 SMU vs #6 Houston
#4 UConn vs #5 Memphis
--------------
The most interesting race will be to get out of the 4/5 game.
SMU plays @Uconn, vs UofL, @Memphis
Memphis plays vs UofL, @ UC, vs SMU
UConn plays vs SMU, vs UC, @UofL
UofL plays @UC, @Memphis, @SMU, vs UConn

Louisville has the toughest road, they could easily fall to the 4/5 game. However, they do control their destiny to tie for the conference title as well...
Looking at this...we REALLY don't want Memphis to get a third shot at us on their home court...so we really need that 3 seed or better...

SMU drops a game they couldn't lose (now have 2 of the 3 losses to the lower half of the league). Considering they still have @Memphis and @Uconn, one of those two is likely going to get out of the 4/5 game (UConn tie-breaker could loom large).

Yea. There is a significant difference between 3Uconn vs 6Houston and 4Uconn vs 5Memphis, especially at fedex forum

Plus if we lose the final game of the year at Louisville you gotta figure we are due to beat them....right?

We jump:

23: SMU (loss to Temple)
22: Ohio State (loss to Michigan)
21: Memphis

So, I'd guess we're 21, unless Creighton loses convincingly at home to Villanova. Likely, it will look something like:

15 Virginia
16 Creighton
17 Texas
18 Kentucky
19 Wisconsin
20 Michigan
21 UConn

If Creighton loses a close game, push them to 20/21.

Bad loss at home for Michigan State today. They'll slip to the mid teens at least

We should absolutely jump Kentucky, they have 6 losses and beating Louisville is their only top 25 win.

Those were the standings before SMU lost to Temple. They would still be the 3 seed however because they currently hold the tiebreaker over Memphis and UConn.

We'll jump SMU, Ohio St and Memphis to get to #21. #14 Kentucky losing to #3 Florida won't drop them much if at all - certainly not into the 20's. #15 Michigan losing at home to #21 Wisconsin will drop them some but doubtful beyond us - they probably land at #20.

It doesn't look like anyone outside the top 25 is going to make a big jump - certainly not to the low 20's, so we don't have to worry about being jumped this week.

So almost for sure #21. Possibly #20 if they punish Mich for the home loss to Wiscy, but doubtful.

An optimistic 16 , although I would prefer a slight bump to 20 only because this team is focused, hungry and and ready to embrace and exceed expectations. One of my favorite UConn teams to date

We flip-flop with Memphis. But you're wrong about someone outside of the Top 25 making a big jump... UNC will now clearly move into the top 5 with a win over #25 Pitt.
