"Kansas State became the first major conference team so far to fail to score at least 1.0 points per possession against the Golden Eagles."
Good stuff here.
we're kind of fortunate that these three big games...KSU,UW,BUF are all home....of course we have to win them. But as far a getting a good rep, things are aligned pretty well.

I really think at this point, not having Michigan on the 1-line is inexcusable. They are undefeated with three top-20 wins by margins of 17, 19, and 27. The 17-point win over UNC is the closest margin they've had all year.
Frankly, I don't think any other team in the country has a viable case at a #1 vote other than Michigan. Their body of work so far is ridiculous and leaps and bounds better than anyone else in the country. Gonzaga, Duke, Virginia, Kansas, so far none of them even deserve to be in the conversation with Michigan.

It says this is from 11/29
New rankings our.. UR
If we're actually going to start looking at resumes this early, it should be noted that Louisville is now top 50 KenPom, which gives us two Q1 wins. Whether or not they can finish the year there is another question.

Keep in mind, there is no such thing as a victory of more than 10 points this season...

Yeah, not for the NET. But everyone else does have single-digit wins and Michigan has none.
Hey BC77, if you love Michigan so much, why don't you just marry them?

Can't believe Radford is only a 16 seed after ... well ... you know.
It is interesting how the numbers change from week to week. Maryland and Michigan State are still in, despite bad losses. Stanford takes Kansas to overtime and they are still #2. Wisconsin beats Iowa and is vaulted to 12, whereas Iowa is only dropped 3 places due to the loss. It seems that everyone is still being ranked according to their "potential" and not much in relation to their results to date.
Bucky hate - I really, really want us to win on Saturday.
I now realize this was and old one. My bad.

How is Marquette the 10 in a 7-10 vs Miami? Terrible.
The date is listed as 11/29. So presumably this is before the win on Saturday.

My bad. Thought it was present. Seemed odd given the U loss to Yale

Oh man. I didn't realize they have lost 3 straight (Seton Hall, Rutgers, Yale)

Maybe I should go be a Michigan fan, it's just swapping MU for UM? ;D

He did update. Marquette still a 10. Miami dropped out. West Virginia is a 9 and one of the last 8 in, which Marquette is not. So it's either an odd procedural bump, or more likely he just got lazy and didn't move MU up

10 seed seems a bit......high....or lazy. Not that it really matters at this point.

Definitely just lazy. His "Last Four Byes" include an 11 seed, a 9 seed and two 10 seeds. SJU and MU are both on the 10 line but not in that section.
Bracket Matrix updated and we are on the 9 line. That seems about right. I'd expect to shoot up 3 lines or so if we can win our next 5.
