UK is about where expected.

 

[*CatinIL*]

Do you see that HOOSIER fans?! Do YOU?! Coach Tom Crean getting it done in Bloomington. The Hoosiers ranked higher than KENTUCKY!

So I ask you...why would Indiana University ever even consider firing the GREATEST BB coach that its ever had?

CTC getting it DONE in Bloomington!

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

We are not even in the cbssports.com Top 25 plus 1.

Wow.

 

[kyjeff1]

Wow, Michigan State didn't move. They lost at home to Nebraska. Yes they beat Maryland but they shouldn't cancel out.
Can't complain with our ranking but if we lose to KU by 1 in triple overtime I bet we drop several spots.

 

[ThroughBlue]

How does Baylor stay ahead of us?

 

[KMKAT]

We are absolutely not 16 slots worse than Kansas......and who has Louisville beaten?

We're the 6th best 4 loss team? Yeah....

 

[ThroughBlue]

How many games would it take Michigan st to lose in a row before they fell as far as we did? If you guessed three then you are wrong. Four? Five?

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

We are absolutely not 16 slots worse than Kansas......and who has Louisville beaten?

Nobody. Their best win is then-barely ranked, now unranked Pitt. Check that, they are still ranked in the worthless coaches poll.

 

[ThroughBlue]

We stayed the same while winning twice. How far did Duke drop for losing its third in a row?

 

[docholiday51]

Hard to argue with the first 5,6 thru 12 have a few teams misplaced,13 thru 25 is a cluster.It really shows how much parity there is in college basketball.I think for several teams the back end of the schedule will get tougher and some teams will get exposed(UNC,Mich St,UL,IU,Duke,SC and Pitt)
The thing is somebody has to occupy those spots

 

[caneintally]

You can't help but laugh at the duke bias and how much voters hate UK. UK is soo much better then UL it isn't even funny. Also Mich St's loss to Nebraska is as bad as UK's loss to Auburn but they don't drop - OK whatever.

 

[KWilt43atbuzz]

UVA at 15-4 and #12 in laughable.

Other than that I'm good.

 

[KneeBurns]

I ahve no idea why we are #3. Doesn't matter, we're getting killed tonight in Ames.

 

[BigAbe4UK]

Seriously we stayed where we were? Really? Good lord these pollsters got the head so far up their azzes. Are they even watching the games?

 

[SilentsAreGolden]

Wait, how is SMU not ranked at 18-1? They go out to 47th and they are not listed? Is it because they are in trouble? They've been ranked in the AP.

 

[skcatfan]

Wow definitely a ton of bias in this poll. I think a lot of teams will be exposed very soon as being overrated for sure.UofL is one team that falls in that category. I don't expect to go to Kansas and win but I do think we play them close. If that happens then I hope we get the same benefit as other teams have from not dropping at all for losing games to ranked opponents.

Even if lose at KU in 3OT we will drop to like 24th as the polls hate us and you just can't argue that. LMAO at UVA at 12. WE would demolish their sorry azzes as would most of the top 20 .

 

[Reber3]

Rankings don't matter very much right now but how in the world can Michigan State be ranked 11 after losing three in a row?

 

[KWilt43atbuzz]

Wait, how is SMU not ranked at 18-1? They go out to 47th and they are not listed? Is it because they are in trouble? They've been ranked in the AP.

Silence, I would say they cant be ranked by Coaches since they are in trouble.

 

[ZenCatFan73]

Coaches poll just scrapes the bowels of sucktitude.

 

[UKGrad93]

Iowa is good, but they are not #4.

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

Coaches poll just scrapes the bowels of sucktitude.

I think I might re-order some teams from 12-19, but other than that the right people are in the conversation.

 

[trinity45]

I agree, have not been that impressd with UV.

 

[ZenCatFan73]

That's true. I kinda meant in general.

 

[Icecoldbrewdoggy]

Mich State. still at 11 is an absolute disgrace.

 

[ganner918]

Wait, how is SMU not ranked at 18-1? They go out to 47th and they are not listed? Is it because they are in trouble? They've been ranked in the AP.

They weren't ranked last week either. Maybe they're not eligible in that poll.

 

[WeWant9]

Duke at 20 is a joke. They lost to a bad Cuse team at home, but somehow are redeemed by beating a bad NC St team? I'm curious where the ap ranks them.

Looking at the top 10 though, I can honestly say none of those teams scare me. It's just one of those years where anybody can lose on any given night.

Wow, look at Texas A&M at #5. I wish Donovan would have stayed at Florida and we could be looking at a real SEC resurgence for once. Although Howland, Pearl and Barnes could have their teams in the top 25 consistently once they get a few seasons under their belts.

 

[BourbonBalz]

Mich. St., Louisville, Virginia, and Arizona are all ranked too high. We should be ranked above all four of those. Throw Baylor in there as well.

 

[ZenCatFan73]

I agree with this. I have been saying I think the SEC tourney is gonna be very competitive.

 

[Mike-D]

Wow.

[Fostercat]

The bias is so obvious and there are so many things wrong in these polls that I don't know where to start.

 

[UKWildcats#8]

We are absolutely not 16 slots worse than Kansas......and who has Louisville beaten?

We're the 6th best 4 loss team? Yeah....

Honestly it's really hard to say how to rank the 4 loss teams on that list. I do agree I'd not rank us 6th of 6 though.

 

[Wildcat-in-STL]

How the eff is Duke not unranked???

 

[Schwagg]

Kansas is 15 spots too high, pretty much every year and in every poll. They get annihilated by a terrible OSU team who gets drilled by a bad KSU team a few days later and doesn't drop one spot. Unbelievable.

 

[ukwazoo]

LOL at Wichita State. Just LOL.

 

[GOING FOR #9]

We are not the 6th worst four loss team what a bs poll

 

[Bkocats]

wondering why anyone is surprised how other teams are ranked in relation to us
However - our particular spot is about right at this time. We had two good games; I want to see if we keep it up or revert. The rest I just laugh at

 

[ZenCatFan73]

Wichita St should not be in the poll and Duke should be 25 or not ranked.
