we started the yr with votes then went 0-3. also we struggle every yr in OOC which we usually play tough teams then try n finish .500 then when conf starts we destroy everyone and it takes til the end of the season to get respect bcause we had too many losses early on. also UM's coach is a voter. if we keep winnning we cuold be 25th by the end of the year.

wsu 11-7
unc 16-4
um 13-6

 

[PurpleBlood]

I cant beleive were not getting votes as well. Apparently rpi is not important because I think we are higher than half the teams receiving votes.

 

[SWeberCat02]

While it's nice to get recognized by being ranked and such, this isn't FBS, where rankings matter. Being in a one bid conference, it's all about making your conference tourney and winning the damn thing. So I say, screw the rankings and just WIN.

true

basically its just for fun like the bracketology

 

[weberwildcat]

we started the yr with points to be ranked then went 0-3 and nothin until this week we are 25th. 5 teams went from not ranked to ranked this week. interesting we went from no votes to ranked so quickly. will be even more interesting if we keep playing good basketball and meet UNC in mid Feb especailly if both teams haven't lost by that time.

The voters seem impressed at UNC's record and weigh strengh of schedule less. Can't complain after laying that egg in Portland. At least we got the ugly game over with in the regular season.
