youjustgotKMed Posted November 27, 2011 Author Share Posted November 27, 2011 A few thoughts: - The LMU game obviously looms large but Vermont is the only modestly scary home game in December (Portland is about to find out how mean Pelicans can be) and we are staring at the possibility of 12-0 and being ranked for at least 4 straight weeks. - Being ranked IS important. If affects everything ranging from your highlights being on Sportscenter, to recruiting, to casual fan attendance during December. We haven't been ranked since the spring of 1994 so hell yes its important for this program. If we can get past OK we have potential to go on a serious run, If we lose however I'm expecting a lot of criticism, but we will not and shall not. BELEIVE!

STLfan Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Here is what the Top 25 has done so far this week. 1. North Carolina - Beat Tennessee State and South Carolina, Lost to UNLV 2. Kentucky - Beat Radford and Portland 3. Ohio State - Beat Virginia Military, North Florida, and Valparaiso 4. UConn - Beat UNC-Asheville and Florida State, Lost to Central Florida 5. Syracuse - Beat Virginia Tech and Stanford 6. Duke - Beat Tennessee, Michigan, and Kansas 7. Louisville - Beat Arkansas State and Ohio 8. Memphis - Beat Tennessee, Lost to Michigan and Georgetown 9. Florida - Beat Wright State and Jacksonville 10. Baylor - Beat South Carolina State and Texas-Arlington 11. Wisconsin - Beat UMKC, Bradley, and BYU 12. Xavier - Beat Georgia 13. Alabama - Beat Alabama A&M 14. Kansas - Beat Georgetown and UCLA, Lost to Duke 15. Michigan - Beat Memphis and UCLA, Lost to Duke 16. Pittsburgh - Beat La Salle and Pennsylvania 17. Marquette - Beat Norfolk State 18. California - Beat Georgia and Denver, Lost to Missouri 19. Gonzaga - Beat Western Michigan 20. Florida State - Beat UMass, Lost to Harvard and UConn 21. Missouri - Beat California and Notre Dame 22. Vanderbilt - Beat Oregon State and Monmouth 23. Arizona - Lost to San Diego State 24. Texas A&M - Beat Texas A&M-CC 25. Creighton - Beat Campbell I'm guessing Florida State and Arizona are going to fall out of the rankings. California might as well and Memphis probably should too but will only drop way down. Out of the current Top 25 teams Duke had the most impressive week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of the current Top 25 teams Duke had the most impressive week. UNLV will certainly be added to the top 25 and deservedly so. Harvard will also get a lot of votes and deservedly so. I still think with a win tonight we will be ranked. At this point of the season its not necessary for team ahead of you to lose but rather you can play well and jump ahead of them. For example, Creighton is 5-0 but they certainly haven't "earned" a top 25 ranking the way we would have if we beat OK tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not ready for this to end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesycow Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I have to think Cal, Arizona, and Florida State drop out of the rankings. People are starting to really take notice of the Billikens so It wouldn't shock me at all if they're ranked. It's a long season though and better to wait until the meat of conference play before really evaluating any teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
