As much as I'd like to see #1 OU go down tonight, I'd hate to see UNCheat go to #1 if OU loses.
 
We're the only 5 loss team ranked and I have no problem with where they got us. Right now that's about right.
 
A loss at Arkansas will push a pre-season #1 out of the rankings mid way through the season. Seems like the Archie Goodwin team 2.0.....
 
The only difference between this team and the NIT team was the Duke game. That is looming very large and could be the difference between making the tournament and another NIT appearance if the wheels come off in the next couple of weeks and Kansas embarrasses us.
 
Virginia losers of 3 of 4 and 13-4 overall is ranked 13th while UK is 13-4 and ranked 23rd.
That ladies and gentleman is criminal and why I hold firm to the anti UK conspiracy.

Of course it is more than fair. Some try to point out hey this guy lost. It isn't just winning and losing, it is both whom you are playing and how you are performing. Duke actually looked way better than Kentucky in their home court loss. Notre Dame was on fire and Clemson is very good and ranked. And, I love Duke losing and hate them but try to observe objectively. I am glad we had that game early on as that Freshman forward of theirs who was lousy against us has improved significantly as has the other one that we were recruiting. And, we have gone downhill. We have lost to awful teams and have looked even more awful in doing so. We MUST have some answer on the inside or this is going to be a frustrating season. And, I say B>S to the poster saying enjoy it because this is a transition season. We were pre-season number one! This is KENTUCKY. OK,Skal is a complete bust,we all know it, but there are others on this team and maybe with Hawkins back and Wynyard waiting on the bench, and Willis showing some good effort in the last game, we quit hoping for miracles with some others.
 
Wow in the Coaches Poll Duke at 12 at 14-4 and back to back losses (1 at home) and UVA at 13 and losers of 3 of 4 and 13-4 overall is the most biased ACC homerism of all time and I should probably vomit.

Oh and UK is 19th at 13-4.

:flush:

Yeah, I remember beating Louisville the NIT year! I also remember how we would go on the road in the conference and beat middle of the pack SEC teams by 16 points!

Oh wait, that never happened that year and you are obviously trolling?
 
It's a transition year. Just enjoy it and root hard for improvement until next season.

Oh transition shmatision, we still got a long way to go and it's never over till you lose in the NCAA's. I'm not looking ahead to 2017 without first seeing how 2016 turns out in the end. After all, remember how at the end of the 2014 season we were pretty much left for dead?
 
we really shouldn't be ranked. OSU and Auburn are atrocious losses.

Well Duke and Louisville are both top 16 teams in the Coaches and UK beat both.

We are jekyle and hyde...

We can beat just about anyone and lose to just about anyone.

Does that mean we shouldnt be ranked?

That team was a very young and talented team. UK's current team lacks an inside game.
 
Who cares about Duke. Geez

23rd is generous and we should be happy to be ranked. We won't be next week.

23rd is not generous when we are 3-0 v RPI top 40.

Oh and Corliss Williamson is not walking thru that door. Have a little hope.

Good lord. Who cares where Duke is ranked right now. We are not current contenders for a National Championship. That's what matters. Not their ranking. Most fans would agree.
