KU officially #3
|
W00T!
|
And the AP poll?
|
That's weird. I thought we'd be #5 tops this week.
|
For the first time this year....I think we're appropriately ranked (we've proven our worthiness more now than earlier in the season).
Winning tonight will say a lot about whether or not this team is a #1 seed. |
Wisconsin shouldn't have fallen that far. They lost by a bucket to the number 1 team in the nation. In fact, they should be #3. KU should be #4.

I think the rankings are pretty good. *edit* OSU lost by 26 to Florida in bball. They lost by 27 in football. :D |
they dropped because they have lost there last two games. You forgot they lost to Michigan State too. Rockchalk :ku:
|
They'll have win out to keep the #1 seed, anyway....

They also lost to Michigan State this week. Two losses in a week and only slipping three spots isn't bad. |
good
|
Yeah, I didn't recognize the Michigan St. Loss. Totally slipped my mind. Cool, their plummet is good by me. I'd rather have a #2 seed, for less pressure... we shall see.

ok...

apparently in the coaches/espn poll KU is #3 in the AP they are still #6 unless the AP hasn't really updated yet :shrug: big difference though [/edit] in fact, the AP poll still says last rank for KU was 9 ..... which was last week ...... so i don't know that the new one has come out yet. |
KU hasn't played anyone recently.
They've taken care of business, something they couldn't do early. But I'll wait until after the TX game and Big 12 tourney to hand them a #1 seed (to bad the committee won't see the championship game) |
Quote:
i expect the longhorns to really bring their "A" game against the hawks. Playing defense is about a lot about effort and focus .... Texas has been blowing it off ... against KU they won't. |

and the perimeter defense to stop Augustine [/homer] |

we could really use a Texas win over A&M ..... it will boost their ranking and could give us the big 12 regular season title. then we need for K-state,KU,Texas and Texas A&M to be in the finals of the big 12 tourney too. |

ok, this AP is updated.
http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/rankings?poll=1 Ohio St UCLA Kansas Wisconsin Florida Memphis Texas A&M UNC Georgetown Nevada ... So #3 in both polls. Kick ass. |
Quote:
Wow, I didn't expect UNC to drop that far. Memphis, like every year, is overrated. |
well all they need to do is win out and they should recieve a 1 seed

BTW, I think we should all just take a step back and wait to see what happens. When is the last time KU has won at Norman? I know we have the better team and should win this game tonight. Still, I want to see them come out and play a solid game and come away with the win. OU at home has always been tough for KU. You know they will be fired up and bring their best. If KU plays like they're capable, they should win. If not, OU could get the upset.

Yeah, KU is ripe for a loss. I, too, think we lose tonight at OK.

Against who? OU sucks this season. The teams we played in Norman previously to this season were good teams unlike this season. Texas is one deminsional (Durant) even though Augustine is playing well, he'll be matched up against a great guard trio of KU. I expect KU to play their asses off to be honest with you to solidfy not only the conference title (i hope TXAM loses sometime) but to solidfy their hopeful #1 seed in the tourney. |

Sorry, but when KU is playing great, the rest of the Big12 is just inferior. Collins is the x factor of this team and I assume he will be starting come tourney time. |
Quote:
|
Yeah, just so happens they ARE playing great at the moment. |

Missouri (6-8 17-10) Iowa St. (5-9 14-14) Colorado (2-12 6-18) Nebraska (5-8 16-11) Kansas St. (9-5 20-9) Are these the powerhouses that you hang your hat on? These are the last 5 teams that KU has played. Who wouldn't play well against these chumps? |
Its nice to see the hawks ranked so high, but I think A&M should have leapfrogged us in the rankings. After all they have a higher rpi and they beat us in our own house. It doesn't make sense that we're ranked ahead of them.

I'm pretty sure our losses are worse than A&M's as well. They didn't by chance lose to Oral Roberts at home did they? I know they lost to Tech twice, but thats also someone we lost to. |

Personally, I think the polls should not even be done until February 1. Until that day, all anybody knows about is record and RPI. Period. No coaches no AP no USA. |

After that, we've been dominating too much while they were busy losing to TTech. |
