I'm a mild bit shocked. :shock: Yes we lost to ranked teams but we are not a known MBB power. Maybe LB's rep helped?

I'm not surprised although I thought it would be flipped (AP at 23 and Coaches at 25). And look at Loserville all the way up to #5. Damn, I hope we get another shot at them in the AAC tourney.

Glad we finished the season in the top 25. This is an accomplishment.

This

Guess we should be happy finishing the regular season top 25. When we beat Coog High, that Louisville game might be "somewhat" of a home court advantage. Won't most of the other fans be cheering for us?

this is good for next year. we will probably start the season in or near the top 25 which makes it easier to stay there and to move up.

This time of year, rankings are sticky. Despite the views from some of our more excitable brothers, you don't make big movements either way.

happy to see we are able to weather a few top 25 losses and maintain a top 25 ranking. that is an indicator of national program respect

Really respect to go 0 for 2 in one week and still stay in the top 25. Sure, quality loses and all but I do think folks are starting to take this team serious.
