@bretstrelow: My #APTop25 ballot for this week, with some late movement based on Zona's loss: http://bit.ly/1IhD1pq http://twitter.com/bretstrelow/status/554514393665654785/photo/1
He had WSU at #18 last week, so that is good 5 spot movement in one week. I believe Strelow had WSU at #20 two weeks ago, so the Shocks have moved up 7 places in 2 weeks on his ballot.
If Kentucky goes undefeated, it won't be as good as our season last year because they would have done it with first round NBA players while we didn't.
Or it'll be better because they'll have done it against a far better SOS.
Don't start making these cheap excuses. If Kentucky goes undefeated, it's every bit as special, or more so, than what we did last year. Don't be one of those people looking to find ways to tear apart an undefeated season. That would be beyond hypocritical from any WSU fan.
(Not to mention that Cle was clearly a first round NBA player. Him falling to the start of the second round was more about money than talent.)

Ben Frederickson had us at 14 last week and moves us down to 16 this week. Smart fella I'm sure.
Why do they give some of these guys ballots? I mean you have one thing you signed up to do every week. It's certainly not rocket science. I'm sure 75% of us on this board could do better jobs at evaluating teams on a week by week basis and we do it in our leisure time, not as a part of our jobs.
I mean you don't have to watch every game, every week. But just some casual scoreboard watching and basic logic should do the trick. I just don't understand how some of these "educated" voters are so bad what they do.
