His rankings are atrocious

[TVDirector]

27 in net ranking-
Wonder how that'll play with another week or so before next game. 

[ATWizJr]

RPI has us at 19. Important end of year stat if we can hold/improve that ranking.

UW moves up a spot on the strength of an OT loss to us.

St. Louis Post Dispatch Mizzou beat writer Dave Matter has Marquette 15th this week in AP. He actually watches games and does his job well.

Matter no matta.

Neither does Thad Matta!

Katz has us 13... we beat Buffalo and we could see ourselves being considered top 10 on his list come conference

Impossible. Isn't "Katz hates us" one of the consistent whines 'round these parts?

Not sure I like the dizzying talk of (dark)Matter and Katz both having us on the verge of the top10. Sonny might put Moysh in the bathroom with coffee-cake face....too many black cats. Expectedly, Kryptonite on the lead at Aqueduct.

I'm pretty sure I agree with this, but I'll withhold final opinion until my head stops hurting.

Theres a couple ballots I've found that don't have us in at all. I don't think we're a top 15 team I'd probably have us 19

My Bronx Tale "bathroom" reference is intended for those in our fan base who are eager to rank us too high, not for Matter and Katz. I really respect both those guys. Andy has gone out of is way to be fair towards MU. When he first started out in the business, I didn't care for him. He seemed to try too hard to prove he had the inside scoop. He is one of my favorites now, as he has learned on the job how to put a unique spin on things.

Katz is ranking us high so our fall will be faster and harder.

He is playing chess while others are simply playing checkers.

#21 it is

I like the Massey Composite:
https://www.masseyratings.com/cb/compare.htm

I don't have to be put off by the warts of any one of these illogical computer algorithms....lets just see where Marquette lands! they have us:
MEAN: ~32
MAX: 74 - Haslametrics
MIN: 15 - Pugh

It also has some nice highlighting helping you see min,max and some other calcs.

downside its sometimes out of date by a couple of days...but right now its pretty recent.

[MuMark]

RPI has us at 19. Important end of year stat if we can hold/improve that ranking.

You are aware that RPI doesn't matter at all anymore right?

[LoudMouth]

We have the opportunity to beat two 12's in a row. And maybe even 3 if Buffalo makes the jump after the rodents fall!  We might have a new lucky number...Matt Heldt is fixen it up with the #12

The best news to some might be that we are 21 but to me it is that Buffalo is only 2 spots away from our number!

[MU82]

Solid #21 -- 70 pts behind Ariz St and 77 pts ahead of Iowa -- seems fair enough.

We jumped over K-State, which fell to a tie for 25th. We are still ranked behind F%cky (16) but then again we are ahead of Indiana (T25).

Two teams we lost to are #1 Kansas (neutral site) and T25 Indiana (on road).

Nova moved back into top 20 (17) and Johnnies moving up on ARV.

And yes, as LM says, Buffalo needs to move up only 2 spots!!

[PGsHeroes32]

21 pretty fair

Kentucky at 19 still is funny tho.

Not sure ASU has done much outside of only losing once to a great team

[naginiF]

Steele has us at 20.

He also put Bucky at 21
