Seems like we are creeping up a few across the board. I'm interested to see if anyone dares not to include us now. It was a funny week because (except WV) nobody from 10-19 lost. Everybody below us to 25 lost.

I'm also wondering if Colorado starts to get a few votes. Their only loss was against Iowa State in their opener.

Wow, 18, really? I mean we got screwed with the ridiculous sanctions at least give us the correct ranking.

I don't think 18 is far off right now. Teams 5 places on either side of us have, for the most part, played tougher schedules. We don't have a single win vs anybody in the rankings.

I think we are actually an 8-12 right now but we have to prove it by continuing to roll.

I'd say we MIGHT hit that 12-13 range if we stay undefeated through OOC.

Pathetic showing by the Big 12 in the top 25. They're clearly not a basketball league.

Colorado's only loss was to #5 Iowa St by six points but they haven't played anyone else of significance. Regardless, It'd be nice if they got in the rankings next week when we meet up.

Don't sleep on Kent State. They aren't bad.

We are down to only 2 voters that don't have us in the Top 25: Terry Toohey and John Feinstein. Toohey has not had SMU in Top 25 all year. Feinstein has been all over the map. In the last 3 weeks it has been out, #15, and out. There is no way you could watch the Michigan game and say that SMU should have gone from #15 to out.

We are only 2 points behind Butler for #17, so even if Feinstein dropped us to no lower than #23, we would be #17 this week. Given that only WV lost ahead of us, the moving up one spot seems reasonable unless you believe that the win was so large that it deserved to move SMU ahead of others.

Need to continue to take care of business. Interesting that Cinn lost and stayed ranked and UCONN is back in as well.
