WVU at #17
So we have losses to #1, 13, 32, and 73.
not bad.
That's also dated at 1/16 1:03pm, so that does not include our L'Ville win
liverpi.com has us at #11 after the Louisville win and rpiforecast.com predicts we finish at #14. Not too shabby.
Kentucky checks in at #9 with a SoS of #103
Missouri checks in at #11 with a SoS of #118
Are these teams still untested?
For comparison, MU is #18 with a SoS of #21. MU is the highest rated four loss team.

Its not though. Because as was pointed out above, those numbers were calculated BEFORE the UL win. They don't even have MU's correct record(because of that win) yet. The site I linked, updates regularly, every day!

We're happy for you that you checked Nolan's site. However, we are discussing the official NCAA rankings.
We have 2 wins over Norfolk State (77th) would be nice if they could stay up there but I would assume that's doubtful?
Can Washington improve from 88th? The Pac 12 is pretty bad.

NSU is at least a 66% favorite in every remaining game this season. If they did win out, they'd probably stay in the 70s. My real hope is that they drop no more than 2, which should keep them top-100.
As far as Washington, their next two will be hugely telling. Beat Cal and Stanford at home and they get a big leg up in the Pac-12. They have a lot of room to improve, let's just hope that of all the weak links in that garbage league, they aren't the weakest.
