Pathetic. O-N-E SEC team in the top 25, and only 3 others receiving votes.

We are god awful.

We are the lowest ranked team with our win-loss combination (23-4). There are seven teams ranked ahead of us with a lower win-loss record. The next highest ranked team that matches our record is Marquette at no. 10.

Compare schedules and you'll understand.

Funny how the same logic doesnt apply in football. Teams that play nobody all year long have the media griping about their ranking.

moving up this many spots is very good bc it may give us some breathing room if we drop a tough game this week... we may not fall out of the top 25 if we lose @ rupp... but hopefully we win both!!

because 3 of the 4 losses are to unranked teams. Xavier put it to us at home and are somehow now ranked below us. I like us at 18, and flying under the radar (if you can call it that)
