So....What are we ranked on Monday - 1/6/2025?

[Its DJOver]

Can someone compile a list of how teams 9-16 did this week? I feel like everyone, but Houston, went 1-1. I would, but it seems like a lot of work haha!

Not an answer to your request but, Houston plays no. 25 Cincinnati tomorrow (albeit at home), very lose-able game, and would almost ensure that we would stay top 10 with the right result there.

And hopefully drop them off that three seed line.

9. Michigan State: @ILL (L) & MINN (W)
10. Marquette: SJU (L) & NOVA (W)
11. Virginia Tech: LOU (L) & @CLEM (L)
12. Houston: @UCF (W) & CIN (?)
13. Kansas: @KSU (L) & OKST (W)
14. Villanova: CREI (W) & @MU (L)
15. Purdue: NEB (W)
16. Louisville: @VT (W) & @FSU (L)

I'm going to guess 9 if Houston loses tomorrow and 10 if they win.

Michigan State was only a few points ahead of us and lost to a sub .500 Illinois team and then beat a bubbly Minnesota team. I think losing to St. John's and beating #14 Villanova is worth the 22 vote lead the Spartans have on us. I also don't think beating an injury riddled Nebraska team at home and no one else is enough for Purdue to make up the 333 votes they were trailing us by. Everyone else behind us lost.

I do think that Houston winning at a bubbly UCF and knocking off #25 Cincy combined with our loss to St. John's would mean that they will leapfrog us should they win tomorrow.

14. Villanova: CREI (W) & @MU (L)
15. Purdue: NEB (W)
16. Louisville: @VT (W) & @FSU (L)

19. Wisconsin: @UM (L)

I think we are 12 if Houston wins and 11 if they lose. Think Purdue passes us because AP voters may be influenced by the committee's high ranking of them.

I also think Kansas State finds their way back into the rankings this week

Kelvin Sampson vs. Mick Cronin, gross.

Can games end with no winner?

Ha!

Houston getting a lot of friendly calls against Cincy. Looks like they are going to win.

[PGsHeroes32]

Houston isn't very good.

Cincinnati would be 5-6 in our league.

Cumberland and a bunch of guys who should be at Grambling based off what I see today

[TallTitan34]

Also didn't help Cincy failed to score in the final 6 minutes or so of the game.

Thank You! This is one example why i HATE things like the NET, kenpom etc..The #'s lie. Does ANYONE REALLY think Houston is the 11th best team in the country?? Absolutely not. They have one loss built on a resume by beating no one and playing in a poor conference. Yet, because of computer #'s here they sit at #11 in the bracket reveal. Bad, bad bad.

I'm pretty sure it's because they've won 23 games and lost only 1. They are the literal embodiment of how you prefer to judge teams.

I'm curious, who outside the top-16 do you think is good? Who was undeservedly overlooked and is so good that they should've been in the initial list?

[JakeBarnes]

No idea where to put this, but wow...Northwestern what a choke job.

Villanova for sure..I also think Texas Tech is right there. Just don't think Houston and Nevada should be there given the competition they have played. Outside of that, I had a couple issues with the seeds..in no way shape or form do I think Purdue should be #9 and the USA Today writer agrees with me, and I heard other comments about them too. I'm also very iffy on MSU at #8. I mean if you can lose to Indiana at home, and lose to Illinois anywhere, and still be a #2 seed...it seems you are almost exempt from falling any further.

I look at Purdue having ZERO good non conf wins, and MSU losing at home to Indiana and on the road to Illinois, being #8 and #9, and it makes me think nothing MU does the rest of the way will allow them to get to a #2 seed.

That's what happens when you are a BAD basketball team. It's that simple.

Ya. I saw it. Sort of like the UCLA choke job versus Utah.
