Good thing no one really follows this poll.

The CBS homer on the broadcast was the WORST id seen since Curt Gowdy.

Especially where he said he felt the shockers were 'overrated'and 'didn't deserve their ranking'.

I guess it doesn't make any difference that ALL the other Final Four teams from last year are ranked above us......

Gary Parrish has always been a Shocker hater.

Gary Parrish has always been a Shocker hater.

And yet he tweets this Shocker team could be better than last years. Guess he is on the "they played out of their minds and really weren't THAT good last year" bandwagon. Never cared for him much

Well that doesnt make much sense. We finished No.4 last year, so him having us at No.19 and tweeting that is just a bunch of jibberish.

That was not his point. His point was that last year's team had a very good resume and still had trouble breaking into the top 25.... Because nobody predicted last year's team would be so good. OTOH, this year's team will get the benefit of the doubt until it proves it on the court.

WTH. That poll is all sorts of jacked

[Speak2me]

The poll makes no sense. We actually dropped to 19th (from 18th) in a week in which we beat DePaul, BYU and SL. Even stranger, here is what Gary Parrish (who makes the poll) tweeted earlier today:

@Gary:ParrishCBS: Huge effort from Wichita State today. Not many schools will win at SLU this year. This WSU team might be better than the Final Four team.

Are you guys implying that sports writers talk out of both sides of their ass?

Muscatel will do that to a guy

Not that I give two squirts of piss for his opinion but someone should tweet him and call him out on his silly BS.

There was time when Shockernet was giddy when we hit 26 in that poll...

I was thinking the exact same thing because I was one who was giddy. My, how the times have changed. Play Angry, Not Satisfied, and all that. I am enjoying the ride.

Go Shocks!!!

That poll was last updated at 10am this morning, prior to our game with SLU.
