I think Kentucky should be #2 but thats just me.
And how is Purdue ahead of Syracuse when they have 2 1st place votes and they have 3 wins vs the Top 25.
Glad to see New Mexico break the Top 25 at #19!!
I think that West Virginia and Georgetown need to switch places!
Also wondering why Xavier didn't get any recognition for beating Cincinnati butthey have to play Butler and if they win that get they would hve to get some recognition by getting some votes.

yea I like Syracuse at #4
West Virginia is too high, yes, their undefeated but still too high imo
someone please tell me how north carolina loses 2 games, while being ranked 11. and then somehow goes to 10????? i thought you dropped when you lost? this is a joke. they blow.
I can live with this. I think #1 and #2 are legit. I would have no issue seeing Syaracuse ranked even higher. But I am OK with the top five as is.

we'll find out how legit #2 is Saturday against unc.
I think that UK should and deserves to be number 2. They actually have done enough to show the nation that we could be number 1 but until KU losses I dont see it. I like everything except WVU being so high. I really do think that UNC should be where they are. By the way glad to see Memphis getting ready to break into the rankings.

Is this game at NC?
No. It's going to be the first ever game at the new Cowboys Stadium.

Well when you have played 4 Top 25 opponents and you beat the two that are ranked worse than you and you lose to the two that are ranked better than you, then i can understand why they kept them right around the same spot.

Because their losses are to #3 UK and #5 Syracuse, teams they are supposed to lose to, and they only lost to UK by 2 points.
Now if we only had 61 more votes, we'd be #1!
