Miami #3 in the AP

[Duval904]

How we are still looking up at Duke at this point is beyond me. Especially with our RPI

Our losses are Saint Leo.. FGCU, Arizona and Indiana State... that has probably got something to do with it.

***** *** nlgga we got 3 losses

and ain't you a Dukkke fan?

Would love for us to be ranked behind Duke when we show up at Cameron. Beat them then jump to #1 going into the tourney.

 

[PeteCanes]

#3 is where we belong right now. Feels so good to type that! Handle Duke again, and we're on top.

I'd like to see another And 1 Mixtape 30 point pipehitting of FSU on Wednesday.

We had two voters put us at #8, and one at #7.

Here are the #8s:

Roger Clarkson had Syracuse at #2 (seriously?), and Jon Wilner had Louisville at #4 (really?) and K-State ahead of us at #7 (REALLY??).

And Indiana was ranked as low as 6, and Duke as low as 7. There are always outliers.

Interesting data if you're into this stuff (I am!):

Bottom line, if we didn't lose to FGCU and Indiana State we'd be #1. Not sure what's so hard to comprehend.

Yes, but more because they are 2 losses. If we don't lose those 2, we're 21-1.

Bro If we won every game in the tourney we would be the champions

You know what, TitanCane? We don't need this kind of haughtiness and smug around here.

Wait, Consigliere is TitanCane?

That goes without saying. His ballot permanently has Duke at #1 with the rest blank.

He took good care of us. He gets it. I had Duke #1 too FWIW.

Their RPI is better and they have the #2 SOS. They only have 2 losses both to ranked teams. I think we should be ahead but what can you do.

FGCU and Indiana State are two big reasons why we're not #1

No, having "Miami" across our jerseys is why we're not #1.

Agreed. And having "Duke" across their jerseys is helping keep them above us at #2. Additionally, it will make for an easy ratings promotion if we can stay in the Top 5 prior to our visit to Cameron. Doooookies will be ready for that one regardless of where we are ranked.

A great accomplishment for this university nonetheless!

Indiana is who he has #1. Duke #3.

 

[Consigliere]

Both are tied for first or in first in their conferences.

missouri valley and atlantic sun? wtf?

missouri valley is traditionally a very strong mid-major conference.

Make it stop, correct.

By the way, how about that Stephen Morris character? Kid can sling a ball.

haha i have gladly eaten my share of crow about morris. he's done well and i hope he can continue that into next year.

Sorry to thread jack, I was joking.

I am more worried about the OC, we had a great thing going if we kept Fisch (consistency) but now we have a new OC.
