Kansas still top 10 despite back to back loses 🤣🤣

 

[ukjenning44]

TN #1 without a single win against a top 25 team is the biggest hoax of all.

They’ll hang a banner for it ..

 

[wildcat2243]

Hell, I figured Duke would be #1.

 

[BelfryKYCatFanatic]

In all fairness, Duke beat Auburn and Louisville and we lost to Clemson and beat Gonzaga. We lost to an unranked team, Duke beat their unranked team.

The same Duke team that lost to UK on a neutral floor? I’m asking in all fairness 😂

 

[TFCats11]

There’s more Duke defenders on here with UK avatars, than Duke trolls with Duke avatars 💩🚽

In all fairness they have 2 losses to our 1 and WE BEAT THEM

Anything else just sounds stupid.

This is weird. The actual AP site is still showing the Dec 2 poll. The NCAA site says AP 4-6 are Duke -Kentucky - Marquette, but the CBSSports site shows 4-6 as Marquette - Kentucky - Duke, which makes more sense as Marquette and Kentucky have only one loss to Duke’s two.

I think many of us would have just been happy to see UK in the top 20 this season when Pope was hired. The fact he has beaten Duke and Gonzaga and has us in the top 5 is really unbelievable.

The link i posted it clearly says Dec 9

 

[BigBlueManSouthCentralKY]

Duke will have to lose a lot of games to get bucked down some.

 

[anonymous_2011]

I wonder how bad it hurt them not to have UNC in the top 25?😄 They have a winning record again! 5-4

 

[Myotis]

Had to refresh the page in my browser to get today’s list. However the CBS site still shows Marq-UK-Duke as 4-5-6

That's not Top 25. It's Parrish Top 25 and 1

 

[rickscot]

Coaches poll has it correct with KY 4 and Dook 5.

 

[TucsonCat]

There's 64 voters. Like 37 had Duke at 4, 27 had us. I'll find something else to whine about. Or not at all because I'm an adult

 

[Cold Stout Beer]

Yep. One thing about the trolls on here is that almost all of them pick very UK-themed screenames and/or avatars. But they make themselves way too obvious when they troll.

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

I guess they felt a Duke win over a decimated injured unranked Louisville team on the road had more value than UK’s win over Duke on a neutral floor. Not to mention, we have one less loss. I really think that these voters need to have their voting rights revoked and given to someone else every now and then. This screams favoritism.

 

[ORCAT]

In all fairness, Duke beat Auburn and Louisville and we lost to Clemson and beat Gonzaga. We lost to an unranked team, Duke beat their unranked team.

We beat our ranked teams, they lost to us. And the unranked team loss you mention for us is good enough to be ranked #16 this week. What else you got?

 

[B.B.H.]

Maybe if we boat race Louisville and Toothpaste, we can leapfrog Duke for next poll. Their only game is against Incarnate Word Baptist Church lol

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

The fact that Clemson rose to number 16 from unranked and the fact that Gonzaga only fell 1 spot in basically a hime game speaks to what they think our strength really is. Screw these biased bastards and their love of Duke and their 17 year old player.

 

[CatFanInIlliniLand]

ESPN wants to keep Duke ranked high & Cooper Cuomo 17 forever

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

Maybe if we boat race Louisville and Toothpaste, we can leapfrog Duke for next poll. Their only game is against Incarnate Word Baptist Church lol

Duke will win that game about 130-54 and their baby will get about 40 and it’ll be the top story on their biased network.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

I got called stupid for saying Duke would jump us.

Well who looks stupid now?

 

[Ukatcowboy]

In all fairness, Duke beat Auburn and Louisville and we lost to Clemson and beat Gonzaga. We lost to an unranked team, Duke beat their unranked team.

To be fair, we beat Duke

 

[B.B.H.]

Well who looks stupid now?

The AP voters

 

[blackcat714]

In all fairness we should be ahead of Duke if we were 9th they should be 10th

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

There should be a point when strength of schedule plays a little bit of a role in the voting. And their strength of schedule is not going to be anywhere close to ours. Then again, there is no logic. There’s only favoritism.

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

Where is that little list that shows who voted what?

 

[yabbadabbadoo]

Never mind, I found it, but it is not updated yet

You can look at all 25 voters’s list when it updates and it shows who has extreme picks.

They have started their conference schedule so that won't happen. It is the equivalent of the Big Sky Conference.

Clemson and maybe a road loss to UNC might be their biggest challenges. Here comes their 1 seed.

 

[ukcatz12]

I always laugh when you guys analyze these polls complaining about who is above who and arguing why we should be in front of Duke. Poll voters barely watch the games. They just look up who won and jot down their rankings. Having a team ranked ahead of a team who beat them is not uncommon and happens all the time in both the basketball and football polls.

 

[Creed Bratton]

Unless the refs help out I'm not sure the road game at UNC is that difficult. They beat a 3-4 GA Tech by 3 at the Dean Dome yesterday.

It's fine. They will choke in the tourney as usual. Would love to be the 2 or 4 seed in their bracket.

True, but that's a passionate rivalry game. Duke always seems to struggle a bit there as well recently.
