The second "N" in peninsula is not needed in describing some men.

Jimmy Dugan would agree.

I'm not going to post the link, because at this point I don't want to do anything to help their visit count, but I found it interesting that a 2-win week against admittedly bad competition, with an average MoV of 28.5pts earned WSU a 10-spot drop in Andy Katz's power rankings.

I wonder if he was denied an interview or something. Geezpete. He also dropped UNI 5 spots, so I suppose he's really just laying the groundwork for only having to keep 1 team in after the matchup this weekend.

For your amusement I will include that he has the likes of Kstate, Miami, Providence, and Butler ranked ahead of the Shox.

10 spot drop????? Okay.....whatever Mr. Katz.

You know...I just realized he (Katz) was the main reporter yesterday on ESPN regarding Conners dui. Could that have affected how he votes Wichita St.????? 10 spots lower in yesterdays poll?????? Interesting...

Good lord. How far did Gonzaga drop?

Of course the West Coast Conference is considerably BETTER than the Missouri Valley. NOT!!!!! Lol

They are so used to making assumptions without watching the games or without taking our scheduling issues into account that I honestly don't think that they know how to handle us. It's funny, because most of the time their ignorance is self inflicted. If every nationally relevant sportswriter didn't insist on watching the exact same set of games every weekend, then maybe they wouldn't suck so much at their jobs.

Well, that is interesting, to say the least. I wonder what his reasons are for the obvious monumental collapse the Shocks are undergoing. Do you think Katz is in bed with Giocoletti and got word of WSU taking it to Drake and didn't like it? Does he still do his weekly chats? Perhaps a flood of inquiries would get those questions answered.

Does KState get a pass now for dropping turds at home to Texas Southern and at Long Beach State? Hmm, interesting.

What I'm concluding is that Katz is just an enormous, ignorant dick.

[wufan]

If I'm not mistaken, Katz has been good to us in the past. Not sure what is up with the huge drop.

Maybe they are looking to reverse the seedings from last year. Kentucky with a 1 seed, WSU with an 8

Wait ... too many g's.

@SethDavisHoops: 18. Wich St 19. Georgetown 20. WVa 21. Ohio St 22. Texas 23. N.Iowa 24. Providence 25. Dayton

He also jumped 5-loss Indiana up to 13 this week (yes, they lost this week). So, there's that.

Re: WSU moving up, he says "trying not to let them. Not fair beating up on bad teams"

So, at least he doesn't have an hidden agenda, it's right out in the open. When you're saying things publicly like "trying not to let them" you probably should no longer have voting rights.

Interesting that he is not OK with WSU's schedule, but is quite happy with an Indiana team that did not play a road game until conference season (KenPom NCSOS 319).

Seth Davis also apparently doesn't feel the same way about Notre Dame (NCSOS rank #350) as he does about WSU, as he entered ND into his top 25 on his Dec 15 ballot at #22, and continued to move them up while they were beating up on all those bad teams in the non-con portion of their schedule. He even moved Notre Dame from 12th to 9th after they LOST AT HOME to Virginia. Oh well, I guess there's no accounting for taste.

Indiana NCSOS rank #322. WSU NCSOS rank #30. Watch the damn B1G will get six or seven teams into the dance, and they'll be lucky if one team ( Whiskey) makes it past the second round.
