Poll Watch, 2012-13 Edition

[GoShockers89]

#1 Duke getting THRASHED by #25 Miami, 42-17.

I've never seen a Coach K coached team play that bad, they are not going after any loose balls. They are shooting bad, but they are letting their poor shooting effect their defense/rebounding. Something you didn't see from WSU on Saturday.

#9 Butler falls at LaSalle. Took the lead with 8 seconds to play but didn't get a stop.

[GoShockers89]

Losses everywhere.

We're gonna move up a ton if we take care of biz on Saturday.

[GoShockers89]

Tune in to the Big Ten Network to root against #12 Minnesota, leading Northwestern 27-24 at halftime on the road.

[GoShockers89]

#16 Oregon also losing 32-24 at home to Washington State on PAC-12 Network.

Washington State 32
#16 Oregon 24

I'm thinking at Maimi might leapfrog us, but we still have a good chance to move up nicely.

[GoShockers89]

Wazzu up 39-29 at the half.

I'm thinking at Maimi might leapfrog us, but we still have a good chance to move up nicely.

But they do Florida State on Sunday. And with the way things are going, anything is possible.

#12 Minnesota losing 49-41 w/4 minutes left at Northwestern.

UM coaching staff messed up BIGTIME when they didn't notice Austin Hollins picked up his 4th foul w/12 minutes to go. A minute later, he fouled out. NW has been on something like a 12-2 run since.

[ShockerFever]

Minnesota about to go down. Another one bites the dust.

Ranked teams with losses so far this week:

#1 Duke @ #25 Miami
#5 Louisville @ Villanova
#9 Butler @ LaSalle
#11 K State vs. #3 Kansas
#12 Minnesota @ Northwestern
#17 Creighton @ Drake
#18 NCSU @ Wake Forest
#21 Cincy @ #3 Syracuse
#24 Notre Dame vs. Georgetown



That would be a healthy week's worth of losses normally. For a Wednesday, that's carnage.

Methinks some of these teams should look into a road game before late January. Not enough credit is being given to the best road team in the country.

Fun fact:

Only three Division 1 teams have a perfect record against the RPI top 50 (minimum 2 games played):

#15 New Mexico 6-0
#20 Wichita State 3-0
#3 Syracuse 3-0
