2017-18 National Rankings

[Shocktoberfest]

Seth used to love us. Who slept with his wife?

So true. I used to kinda dig him. Not so much now.

[ShockerFever]

Seth used to love us. Who slept with his wife?

I think the Koch Brothers did.

[RussDaBus]

Up to 17th on Seth Davis ballot.

[SHOCKvalue]

Any chance Seth somehow lives in a parallel dimension where he is exactly a week behind reality?

[Jamar Howard 4 President]

I really like this theory.

[WichitaStateGuy]

Predictions? I say lucky #13.

[ShockerPrez]

Hmmm.

We just might move higher than 15th.

Maybe. Who knows.

14/15

[Slykryck]

11 teams ranked ahead of us loss this week, including 3 teams losing twice. Of those 14 wins, only 4 were to ranked teams. We won on the road against #5. Pollsters, your turn.

[ShockerDropOut]

#15

[ShockTalk]

Probably a lot of movement this week with 16 of the top 25 losing a game, 4 losing twice. Also a lot of teams just below the T25 that lost 1 or more games.

[Dave Stalwart]

I think 11 is our ceiling. 15 is probably to be expected. I bet Cincy will fall 1 spot behind us where ever that is and Houston will break in to the 20s

[Slykryck]

I agree that Houston will get ranked. Coaches poll will be kind to Cinci, but I feel the pollsters can’t wait to slaughter them. Many have been quick to point out they made top 5 without beating a ranked opponent. I think they may end up in the high teens, 17-19 range.

[WuDrWu]

More importantly, our seed projection right now has to be no worse than 6 and is probably going to be a 5/4 in most brackets this week. A 6-2 finish just might be good enough for a protected seed. 7-1 and even 6-1 probably gets us a top 4 seed. That's pretty strong folks.

[Cdizzle]

"protected"

[Rlh04d]

Way, way more important than where pollsters place us.

[Cdizzle]

Lot of wood to chop before it's a thing, but they would really have to move the goal posts (believable) if WSU finished that well and wasn't a 2 or 3 seed. The resume stacks up with most of the 2 and 3 seeds right now, and the remaining schedule is actually stronger for WSU than several of those teams.

[AZ Shocker]

I'm gonna say we have the biggest jump in the polls of any team and check in at #10.

[wheathead]

I’m gonna say it again: I love @az shocker’s enthusiasm. He’s a sun shine pumper, but he can be—he lives in Phoenix!

[pinstripers]

Seth used to love us. Who slept with his wife?

Seth is a political animal. He is far left, his dad was in the Clinton administration. He believes Charles Koch is Satan.

[wheathead]

Status quo. Just like every journalist out there that got a “liberal” education. Even Lutz and Sully show their liberal bias on twitter.

[Shocker Mama]

You’d think that, if someone was paying you to analyze basketball teams, you’d be able to force your political views into a little mental box just long enough to do a straight up ballot.
