On the Lighter Side: Best and Worst Class Winning %'s at MU

[LloydMooresLegs]

22 throws down, onslaught coming.  I'll just start by asking how did MU do from 70 to 73 against those 16 ranked teams?   Pretty damn good. 

[marqfan22]

class of 73 was 9-7 vs. ranked opps.

Winning % is overrated.

[MUMac]

Class of 73 played against 16 ranked teams out of 126 opponents over four years.
After the Georgetown game, Class of 2012 will have played against 44 ranked teams out of 137 opponents over four years.

Marquette in the 70's is like today's Gonzaga in the WCC, except they made Final Fours and won.

One thing to remember, back in the '70's, it was the top 20.  Now, top 25.

[PBRme]

Pretty incredible any way you slice it that it takes to No 14 on the list to find a team without a player recruited by AL

Am I just dense or is something amiss here?

Am I just dense or is something amiss here?

I assume he means class of 2012.

[2TimeWarrior]

Okay...that makes sense now.  I was just hoping that my Class of '01 numbers were somehow improved

[Norm]

I assume he means class of 2012.

Oops. Yep, I meant 2012. I'll go back and fix that.

[MarqBB77-03]

69 through 82 all in the top 20.
