Sorry man. I understand what you are saying, but there is only one other team in the country that could handle those losses and remain in the top 10 and that is UNC.

Duke is 5th in RPI and have had one of the toughest schedules in the nation. A 20-5 record considering that is very good. And yet you want these voters to put them behind Missouri?

This is a basketball thread, not a football thread. I just don't get why anybody would bring it up. Nobody cares about MU's fraud football team full of chokers, certainly not in the middle of February.

I'm glad they've played a tough schedule, but they still have lost 4 of 6.

Figured it out alright. Duke is overrated, AGAIN.

You are biased here (your hatred for the ACC conference and Duke is blinding you).

Should Missouri be ahead of Duke? That's the question these voters had to answer in their minds. What's your answer?

Too bad both KU and MU can't make it to the Sprint Center. KC will most likely get a 1/16-8/9 with OU, so they aren't going to put Mizzou and Kansas in a potential 4/5 matchup in the Sprint Center... even though that would be about the best thing that's ever happened to the place.

So the choice was Duke at #9 & MU at #10 or MU at #9 & Duke at #10? I doubt it.

MU got the benefit of teams ahead of them losing and with a good week of ball to jump up 8 spots. Duke losses 2 straight games and they drop 4.

Pretty sure the defense lost 3 out of the 4 games. Including against your team, where Daniel led 2 go ahead drives in the 4th quarter, yet our defense gave it away. Remember that game?

Im not gunna deny Daniel fell apart after the Nebraska game, but he still threw for 4400 yards, 39 TD and a crazy 72% completion rating.

The defense lost the Texas, OU and Kansas games. Daniel lost 2 NFL receivers and experience at OL for his senior year. Danario Alexander wasn't near 100% and Coffman was hobbled at the end of the year, so all he had was Maclin, Saunders and Perry who underachieved once again.

I know your a KU fan, so I guess I understand your stupitidy and bias towards hating Chase Daniel, I mean he did ruin your perfect little season last year.

And for the same reason - inexperience - I'd think that about Mizzou, too. Not that either team couldn't make it into the second weekend... but the tournament is a fickle bitch.

That's true, but Self is a great coach. I don't think a sweet sixteen is out of the question. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised with elite eight. However, I definitely don't want to see a Bucknell or Bradley, which can happen with a young team. Oh well, this team really has no expectations to be met.

Bit too high for Mizzou.... down year in college basketball.

I remember Chase Daniel choking and playing a major part in MU's collapse last season, yes.
