Considering how weak the Valley is this year, our numbers actually stack up fairly well against Florida.Originally posted by im4wsu View PostComment

I would agree. I think for the most part we are getting a lot of respect. In fact even complaining about a guy ranking us #10 is a very nice problem to have. It is hard for me to get too upset with anyone ranking us in the top 10 (although I would prefer they all had us #3 or better, I can at least understand some concern about the Valley being down this year).Originally posted by Play Angry View Post
It would be nice if they held Syracuse to the same standard since most of this year their SOS has actually been worse than ours but it is hard to complain too much when you are ranked #4 in the nation and one point away from #3.Comment

The beautiful thing about this team is they don't need this kind of motivation (IMO), they seem to have an internal drive to get better and not be satisfied with the accolades.Originally posted by WSUwatcher View PostComment

Nerdy logic alert!!! All mindless trash talkers, please keep your distance…
The following is only meant for a head-to-head perspective for comparing WSU and Florida, with no consideration for ranking them compared to anyone else:
1 Week Ago, WSU had wins over Tennessee and Alabama. Florida did not. Head-to-head: Advantage WSU
Today, WSU has wins over Tennessee and Alabama. Florida does too. Head-to-head: Advantage nobody
Twitter trash talk can be fun. (Congrats Florida! I sure wish WSU had beaten teams like Alabama and Tennessee!)
but…
Logic says that Florida spent the last week effectively striking a couple positive bullet points off WSU’s head-to-head resume. Valid arguments over who should be ranked higher can be made for both sides, but regardless of where you stood on comparing the two teams a week ago, logic dictates that you must improve Florida’s rank relative to WSU’s given the results of the last week. Maybe the gap is just smaller and WSU is still ahead. Maybe Florida passes WSU. Maybe Florida was already in front of WSU and now the gap has widened. We can argue who should have been ranked higher a week ago, but logic dictates that we must admit that Florida gained relative to WSU over the past week.
I would personally rank WSU ahead of Florida today (my opinion) but I would simultaneously admit that Florida gained on WSU over the last week (fact).
Nerdy logic complete. You may now unleash the trash talkers to pillage as they see fit.Comment

I'm with you 100% with a small note -- WSU also improved w/ 2 more road wins. But that gap (or 'dat gap' as I prefer to think of it) is still an unknown variable. So I'll go back to what I started off with -- I'm with you 100%.Originally posted by Jamar Howard 4 President View PostComment

Wow, this post should be sent to all the really cool voters and analysts who have been slobbering over Florida and Syracuse's balls. Not even shocked at all that Syracuse hasn't even played a Top 50 team on the road.Originally posted by im4wsu View PostDeuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.

This is some very good stuff. These are the types of hair-splitting stats the selection committee usually doesn't overlook.Originally posted by im4wsu View Post
Now since it is Syracuse they might ignore the stats, but they will have them as ammunition.
Do we hear anyone questioning Syracuse' schedule?Basketball Season Tix since '77-78 . . . . . . Baseball Season Tix since '88Comment
