We just need to win in march to bring respect to SMU. Our conference isn't respected, so in conference wins do not mean as much right now. Glad we have sustained success the past 4 years, nowwe have to make the next leap and win meaningful games in the tournament

Hopefully a majority of the voters watched today and saw that this is a really good team. We went toe-to-toe with a top 15 team and came out on top. We should be in the top 20 tomorrow. #EarningRespect

Totally think you're right but that probably means we will go back to the Receiving Votes category lol

#23 likely. We don't move above Cinci...unless they are complete idiots as you don't move a #11 out of the top 25 completely for one loss in conference to a top 25 opponent. The other teams that lost will likely be moved down a spot or two. We need to earn that name and the respect that goes along with it by winning in March.

If NW holds on over Wisconsin...watch them leap-frog us in rankings.

Not surprise by NBC, but that was the most depressing victory I've ever read. "Though they won, their conference sucks and it will be hard to prove themselves". Not a direct quote, but basically paraphrased it.

I'd say we move up to #21-#22.

Between #19-24 (Xavier, Butler, Saint Mary's, South Carolina and Maryland all lost)

Would think we for sure pass Butler, Xavier and probably one of the other 3, maybe two.

Big improvement from his (Seth Davis) vote at 25. Hopefully those non-voters at least give us #25 and hopefully that will push us up to 20 or so.
