The problem is writers and coaches don’t have the time to go through every team and play the transitive property game. And if you do that with other teams we’d look worse too. For example, Maryland beats IU, who smokes us. So should they jump us? We’ll be around 16 and that is completely fine.

Agreed, and it was weird having Indiana and St John's right behind us and buffalo right ahead of us. The good timing we might have is that last week was the first time since Wade that most people I've talked to outside Marquette circles saw the Creighton clips. My guess is that translates to many writers and coaches also catching their first real glimpse and wondering who else MU has played, and not a bad day to then have lville drilling unc. Probably a couple of spots optimistic and maybe 14 is really best case, but a lot of teams losing in front of us. Will be better to have a second BE team in Nova ranked as well, but scary how good they looked today.

Apparently I think more like the coaches, since the ranking I listed was within 1 spot for each of the top 17 in their new poll except for having Gonzaga at #7 and Coaches put them #5. My one off included flipping my home town Auburn and Marquette in the 12 & 13 spot
1 Virginia (13) flipped 1 & 2
2 Duke (6)
3 Tennessee (7) flipped 3 & 4
4 Michigan (6)
5 Gonzaga I put them 2 lower than the coaches
6 Michigan State 1 higher
7 Virginia Tech 1 lower
8 Kansas 1 lower
9 Texas Tech 1 higher
10 Nevada flipped 10 & 11
11 Florida State
12 Auburn flipped 12 & 13
13 Marquette
14 Kentucky flipped 14 & 15
15 North Carolina
16 North Carolina State 1 lower
17 Buffalo 1 higher
17 Houston 2 lower
19 Oklahoma 1 higher
20 Ole Miss 3 lower
21 Villanova 2 higher
22 Maryland exact
23 Mississippi State did not include, but agree
24 Iowa 3 higher
25 Indiana included Purdue instead of them, ultimate insult!
