Joe Lunardi said this morning that Mizzou is still the most underrated team in America.

These last 5 games are going to be brutal though, and I'm sure people will move on to the new hot team if we go 2-3 or 3-2.

Agreed. I expected #15. There shouldn't be more than 2 spots between us.

Its really not that big of a deal.... They have a very tough stretch ahead of them....

and as a jayhawk fan you're posting this because ..............




:cuss:

Eh - you'll see where you really belong as far as ranking. They may exceed your - and mine - expectations and prove they are a top 10 team. They may lose a couple and settle in at their 15ish ranking. Just enjoy the ride. Win or lose.

Just watching KU day in/day out, I know - or feel - they are right where they should be. This KU team is not a top 10 team. Anything higher than 14/15 and I would they were over ranked. But, that's me.

Interesting that Mizzou jumped Arizona State, who technically had a better week (beat then #6 UCLA, who I thought was overrated at 6, because they had NO clue what to do in the final couple of minutes against ASU).

A lot of teams around 10-20 lost this week, so outside of jumping ASU, I guess Mizzou deserves to be there in a power-ranking/who's-playing-well-right-now sort of way (no offense ;) ).

Mizzou has a stretch of KSU-@KU-OU while KU has Neb-@OU-MU and KSU has @MU-Neb-@OSU. Should be fun. :)

Mizzou has OU at home.

MU will find a way to **** that up.

Blake Griffin is going to destroy Carroll.

We have Iowa State before Nebraska. Both at home.

Then @OU, MU, and UT.

Four of our last 5 at home. I'll take it!

As has been said, the reason MU moved up so much is because of who ahead of us lost. 10 teams from #5-16 in the AP Top 25 poll lost last week.

You really come off as pretty sad in these MU related threads.

That's what I said. :shrug:

Yeah, I skipped the Colorados and ISUs of the world... Mizzou has to take care of CU before their stretch and KSU has some random OOC game and ISU before their stretch.

I'm glad this stretch is coming now, because it'll tell us a lot more about the team. If it was in January (2 road games in Columbia and Manhattan, followed a week later @OU, etc), they would have looked awful to start conference play. Playing KSU at home when they were struggling, Colorado twice in January, and not-terribly-difficult road games in Ames and Lincoln is what they needed at the time, which will only help them now.

Did anyone look at those brackets?

MU and KU both #3 seeds at Boise? I hope, I hope, I hope that Mizzou gets seeded in Kansas City. That would be freakin' awesome.
