    Year-end projected SOS is 142. Yesterday morning it was 136, so we lost six places by just watching.

        To the abyss and beyond.
        The future's so bright - I gotta wear shades.
        We like to cut down nets and get sized for championship rings.

          • I'm guessing we move to 10th in the ap with uconn losing and stay at 9th in the coaches.

            • For some reason I'm predicting they will jump Baylor or Oregon over us... No reason for them to, but just a feeling

                I hope not. Baylor went to OT against Northwestern State and Oregon went to OT against a team we handled.

                • My point exactly, but we're the red-headed step child of the top 25!!

                  • Shockers improve 1 spot to #10 on Dave Borges Ballot (but Baylor improves 3 spots from 21 to 18 while Oregon also improved 1 spot from 10 to 9): http://borgesblognhr.blogspot.com/

                    Shockers improve 2 spots to #12 on Bret Strelow's ballot (he actually drops Baylor from 7 last week to 8th this week and improved Oregon 1 spot from 18 to 17): http://www.fayobserver.com/blogs/spo...a4bcf6878.html

                    The Shocks stay at #11 on Rick Bozich's ballot as he jumps Florida over the Shocks to #10 (He keeps Baylor at #8 and he keeps Oregon at #18): http://www.wdrb.com/story/24285624/b...ll-poll-ballot

                    • I am going to predict the Shockers move up to #10 based on the 6 ballots I have seen so far. But it is going to be very close. Baylor, Oregon and WSU actually improved the same number of points on these 6 ballots (a net improvement of 5 total points each for Baylor, Oregon and WSU). But since WSU was already ahead of Baylor last week (albeit a small amount), Baylor has to improve a little more to pass the Shocks. Oregon was even further behind the Shocks. So I am going out on a limb and say the Shocks nose out Baylor for the tenth spot (But if Baylor passes the Shocks it won't totally surprise me based on the sample of these 6 ballots).

                      • From Saturday at 11:30 to Monday morning at 8:45, WSU's realtime RPI has dropped from .6721 to .6701 and improved its rank at from #10 to #6, behind Wisconsin, Mass, Kansas. Syracuse & Oregon.

                        In the Realtime Power Rating, WSU fell from #5 to #7 with Michigan State and Oklahoma State jumping ahead of the Shockers.

                        RPI forecasting WSU stayed at #13.

                        In the Realtime RPI, our SOS stayed at #52 to #65.

                        • NOLA sports writer moved us to #14 as a "riser", while putting Oregon at #9 and Baylor at #16...

                          He has one of the more interesting top 25's, as he seems to go away from the norm on his rankings

                            That's a big bump- this is the same voter who had us the lowest out of everyone last week at #21.

                            Villanova fans must hate him- KU #11, Nova #15. SMH.
