Dayton should be mad. Great record. Quality wins and no ranking. While teams like Memphis are number 10.

Dayton has 2 good wins over top 50 teams (kenpom rankings) in MU and now XU and 5 others over top 100 teams but has also lost to Charlotte (kenpom-147), UMASS-(136), and Creighton (65). They had a SOS of 226 coming into tonight.
Memphis has 4 wins over top 50 teams and 5 others over top 100 teams. Their 3 losses came to Xavier (20), Gtown (laughably still at 23), and Cuse (34). They had a SOS of 46 coming into tonight.
I would say they are rated pretty fair. Dayton should break into the top 25 after the big win tonight.
Badgers winning also doesn't hurt

Unless they lose on Saturday. I think they would have cracked the top 25 this week, but for losing to Charlotte last Sunday.
