Poll Watch (2013-14 Edition)

Well then, tell that to the people making predictions of how they will end up in the NIT...
Pardon me for trying to give some insight into what they have on their upcoming schedule for some people!
Quit being pissy... Sheesh

I'm not being pissy at all.

My post was in reference to SOS ranking to date (a factual metric), and yours was based on future performance (conjecture). They don't have anything to do with each other.

Shockers at #8 in the Coaches Poll

Can't be mad at that.

Shockers at #8 in the Coaches Poll

Definitely surprised. I guess no news/love was good news this week...

And KU and UK fall farther than I expected. UK to #10. KU to #14... shut my mouth..

edit: Looks like Gonzaga dropped 1 though, despite not losing any games...

Parrish explains his ranking methodology:

I didn't under this statement Parrish made in the link above.

Consequently, Pitt, for better or worse, will remain unranked here -- at least until after its game with Cincinnati.

Cincinnati isn't even ranked in his poll, so why would that be considered a good win?

Colorado shown no love in the Coaches?

I understand that, but I was just trying to give other info for the future schedules that people were discussing as well....
Living here in Kentucky has subjected me to PLENTY of both Louisville AND Kentucky's jackass fan bases... I have heard it all because of rooting for WSU, but just remember there are some fans who don't mock WSU, which includes my parents and siblings.
With that being said, sorry if I ruffled feathers with my comments.

It seems a win over KU isn't that big a deal

While I think they should rename the poll the "Graduate Assistants' Poll," I thought the Colorado exclusion was weak as well. I am dumbfounded that Michigan stays in at #25, and equally perplexed that someone voted for Syracuse Shut-Ins to be ranked #1.

equally perplexed that someone voted for Syracuse Shut-Ins to be ranked #1.

Considering Boeheim is a voter it shouldn't be that surprising.

No ruffled feathers here. Just a message board discussion.

For pretty much the first time I have no issues with any teams ranked above us. I do think Wisconsin is still a little underrated. 10-0--with wins over Florida, SLU, UVA, and Marquette. Is anyone playing better than them right now?

Villanova and UConn hop us in the AP Poll

[newshock1234]

by the end of the regular season we will be undefeated and #1 in the coaches and unranked in the AP

[shocks771]

Shockers fall to #12 in the AP

[SHOCKvalue]

Sheesh...

Was totally prepared for the reasonable chance we may not move at all in the AP, but to drop?
