Murray State to go undefeated, end up with a 2 seed, and get knocked out in the first round. winning by 8 against Southeast Missouri State and 7 at University of Tennessee-Martin should count as losses in the eyes of the voters
Polls are dumb. In the coaches poll, Kansas was ranked 8th last week. They went on the road and lost to #4 Missouri, i.e., a team that is supposed to be better than them, by one basket. Yet they fall two spots to #10.
Hoyas were ranked 11th when they beat Syracuse at the Carrier Dome last season

Respectable, yet still outside the Top 10.

Does anyone seriously believe Harvard would be ahead of DePaul in the standings if Harvard played in the B.E.?

Every time I see them high in the rankings
I just laugh, and get on with my life.
J-Wall's Mom's Broom - February 6, 2012
they wont have nearly that high a seed
I’m thinking 5th, and continuing the statistically interesting ‘12s beat the 5s’ more than half the time.
onceahoya - February 6, 2012
12th in the AP

Rankings Good for a Laugh
Yahoo! User Ratings: http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/teamrankerresults .
A sampling: 1. Miss St, 30. Hoyas, 49. Syracuse (but rising), 55. UNC Chapel Hill (!).
I suppose these reflect something, but I don’t know what.
