  • Only 24 points back from Nova. I think we gained ground this week. Maybe it's the one guy fixing his vote.

    • I looked at the Roanoke guy's vote. He has WSU 8th this week, but from what I can tell, he had them 6th last week. Are we sure that was where the low ranking came from?

      Looks like we narrowed the gap a little from 30 points. Overall we received 44 more points in our raw total last week.

      We'll finally see a bunch of movement over the next couple weeks with all the holiday tournaments.

          "1. Duke Blue Devils
          2. Kansas Jayhawks
          3. Arizona Wildcats
          4. Michigan State Spartans
          5. Villanova Wildcats
          6. Wichita State Shockers
          While the Shockers high ranking in the preseason was a bit surprising, the first two contests for the Shockers this season have been indicative of a dynamic program that can potentially compete with some of the best teams in the country. The rebounding and scoring abilities of senior center of Shaquille Morris (17 PPG, 7.5 RPG) in conjunction with the high-volume shooting attack of senior forward Darral Willis Jr. (16.5 PPG) could prove to be consistently deadly as the Shockers progress through the season.
          7. Florida Gators
          8. UNC Tarheels
          9. USC Trojans
          10. Kentucky Wildcats

          Others:
          11. Cincinnati Bearcats
          Although it’s difficult to become too excited over the Bearcats overall numbers considering their easy schedule thus far, the fact that they are a top-four program in scoring (102 PPG), rebounding (54.3 RPG) and assists (23.7 APG) cannot be completely discounted. The overall depth of their roster, combined with their versatile starting line up that is led by sophomore guard Jarron Cumberland (16.3 PPG, 6 RPG, 50 FG%) should allow this program to be consistently competitive as the difficulty of their schedule ramps up in December.
          14. Notre Dame Fighting Irish
          Although the Fighting Irish have not exactly been tested this season, the proven offensive efficiency of senior forward Bonzie Colson (20 PPG, 11 RPG) and sophomore guard Temple Gibbs (17.7 PPG, 50 3P%) cannot be denied. Luckily, the Fighting Irish will get to emphatically prove that their prolific offense is the real deal as they will take on a defensively oppressive Michigan State program by the end of the month.
          24. Baylor Bears
          If the Bears can continue to play this brand of defense (57.7 PAPG, 19th in the nation) and offense (85 PPG, tied for 80th in the nation) they will be a serious force to be reckoned with in the BIG 12. Senior forward Jo Lual-Acuil Jr. (12 PPG, 10.3 RPG) provides the physicality and length to rebound consistently while senior guard Manu Lecomte (20.7 PPG, 46.2 3-Point%) is a deadly sharpshooter that can demoralize opposing defenses. However, the Bears have not been tested this season and their next three games (Wisconsin, Xavier and Wichita State) will be strong indicators of just how dynamically dominant this program actually is...."

                And why would that be?

                Jumped the gun a bit there my friend.
                Its a good landing if you can walk away, its a great landing if the plane can be reused the next day.

                  I’ll tell you why. Because WSU trailed by 18 against an underdog. That’s good enough for a couple spots dropped. #DoubleStandard

                  This game was bad, and I think it would drag us down. However, the next 2 games would also be a factor, as I'd have agreed with WuShock Reapper

              • Win the next 2 games and nobody will remember the first 25 mins of the Cal game.

                • If WSU wins this tourney, the comeback against Cal will be considered as much if not more of a positive than had the Shox won comfortably. Veteran team, won't fold, faced hot shooting opponent, endured, won.

                    Clearly that story is yet to be written. Chapter 1 was kind of crazy and very dramatic. The next 2 Chapters will complete the story. Then we cant talk about rankings.

                    • This guy put Northwestern 16th in his poll. Has a score of -78.
                      Downvote it to oblivion.

                            Interesting way to handle things and actually doesn't look too unreasonable but that was a way long drop for Arizona.

                            Well, Arizona just lost to SMU tonight so maybe they'll drop completely out? lol

                          The Shockers are still at #5 in the CBS TOP 25 and 1. That is a good sign. I don't think the Shockers should drop much this week. I still expect to see them in the AP top 10.
