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

[HutchwasClutch]

SHOULD BE #2, but Arizona or UConn will get the nod. I say MU is #3

It shouldnt be, but alas. No respect

We absolutely should be #2 and shouldn't even be close. 

[brewcity77]

I expect 3, just saying that's wrong. Putting us behind anyone other than Purdue is simply wrong. But the voters are stupid, so...

Others receiving votes.   


Seriously, 4-6.   Purdue, UConn AZ at least ahead.   Probably Kansas, too.

Kansas?!?! Are you on crack?

That's the problem.  UCONN and Arizona definitely move ahead.  Probably Kansas as well, for whatever reason. . .

I think we should be 2 but end up 3.

And there's no doubt several voters will have Kansas ahead of Marquette.

I don't agree.   I predict that will be the result of the poll.

[warriorfred]

Yes.  But Lunardi (who is a flaming idiot, and is still taken seriously), has Marquette as a 3 seed.  Let me know when respect is given to Marquette.  I'm not saying it is right, but Marquette will be ranked somewhere between 5 and 8.  I'm sticking with 7.

Well you'll be totally wrong sticking with your guns on 7. 

[tower912]

I believe MU will be punished by the voters more for the loss to Purdue than Kansas will be for the loss to Marquette.

[HutchwasClutch]

Worst we'll be is 3.  Az loses to Sparty tomorrow and we're a 2 without question.  We should be a 2 regardless of that result. 

[warriorfred]

Well you'll be totally wrong sticking with your guns on 7.

I'm wrong a lot.  I'll live.

I think Marquette is legitimately 2 after the loss, but the voters . . . one cannot be cynical enough.

[tower912]

1-2 will be Purdue and UConn.   If Arizona wins, they will remain 3.   

[Mu8891]

They will NOT be 7 ... lol

I'd say 3 ... but let's hope AZ loses

They aren't dropping 3 spots after crushing #1 and a one possession loss to #2.  For crying out loud.

It's okay.  I'm just not seeing the Marquette love nationally.  Hopefully, I am surprised.

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Yes.  But Lunardi (who is a flaming idiot, and is still taken seriously), has Marquette as a 3 seed.  Let me know when respect is given to Marquette.  I'm not saying it is right, but Marquette will be ranked somewhere between 5 and 8.  I'm sticking with 7.

I will bet you everything I own that Marquette is ranked higher than 7.  That's ludicrous. 

[HutchwasClutch]

1-2 will be Purdue and UConn.   If Arizona wins, they will remain 3.   

UConn isn't jumping 3 spots.  They've beaten garbage except TX and that was a de facto home game at MSG. Texas is not even top 10 either. Our week was a zillion times more impressive. 

[wadesworld]

3 but should be 2.

[tower912]

UConn isn't jumping 3 spots.  They've beaten garbage except TX and that was a de facto home game at MSG. Texas is not even top 10 either. Our week was a zillion times more impressive.

But they are the defending national champion who is undefeated.  MU has a loss.   This isn't about what we think. 

[warriorfred]

I've always wanted to say, "Vander Blue Man Group" is brilliant.

Here is how I got to 7:

1. Purdue
2. Arizona
3. UCONN
4. Houston
5. Creighton
6. Duke
7. Marquette

I am not saying it is right, but my utter and complete lack of faith in the voters make it a 7.  Personally, I would vote 2 and accept 4.

Of course it isn't about what us die hard fans think. But any objective and fair minded analysis puts MU ahead of UConn by a country mile.

Last year won't weigh that heavily or else UConn would have started 1 or 2.
