Still think Michigan State is to high.

Gonzaga also shouldnt be that high as well

Do the voters really think UK is that bad to only give them 1 first place vote? Texas isn't that doggone impressive.

no but i think where they both won 72-67 against weak opponents they gave UT there votes...

UNc is where they should have been weeks ago.

I honestly didn't think UNC would drop that far.

I totally agree with both!

Texas drops next week and UK is the new #1. Unless something crazy happens.

How UNC is still in the top 25 is beyond me.

Duke still would be too with 6 losses. It's just love from the media for Roy.

All their losses have been to top 25 teams so i thinl that they kinda deserve to be in the 20-25 range.

No not all of them. College of Charleston was not in the top 25. Was Syracuse ranked when they beat UNC? I dont think they were.

syracuse was ranked.

Ok, I wasn't for sure. I know they wasn't in the top 5 when they played UNC.

I agree. And this year there have been a lot of crazy things to happen. Cats cannot have a letdown.

yeah the cats will be #1 next week unless pelphrey pulls a miracle...I have to say that the cats deserve this...i mean if kansas and texas should have it uk should too...they played a much tougher schedule...they have not beaten a team currently in the top 15 have they??

Yep, they beat 2, UNC and UConn. It's what they were ranked at the time of the victory, not where teams are ranked at currently.

Well I forgot about C of C, but besides them they were all ranked opponents. Syracuse was like #24 or #23 but they're #5 now so that loss doesn't look bad at all!

I swear I thought that Carolina would still be in the top 20 considering that they didnt tumble after the College of Charelston loss. Hey I am fine with UNC being 23. I really don't like having Northern Iowa in the mix but Im just being picky. Everything else seems to be about expected.
