Rankings should be

1. Florida
2. Duke
3. Indiana
4. Arizona
5. Michigan
6. Kansas
7. Gonzaga
8. Miami
9. 'Cuse
10. Sparty

Wouldn't be shocked to see us land somewhere around 10 or 11 though.

I agree with this as we should be the highest ranked 3 loss team, unfortunately 10 is the best we could do.

No way we don't jump to at least 8.

Please explain. Name the 6 teams we jump and why. Here is a tool, how the teams ahead of us did:

I know so tell me who we jump and why. We beat #19 by 1 and an unranked team this week. I don't see the catalyst when you consider what the other teams did and I'm not sure we get ahead of SYR.

I'd be surprised if we're higher than 11.

I'm not being argumentative, I just want to hear a well made case. Maybe I'll buy in.

I think the pollsters realize we should have been ranked 3 weeks ago. They couldn't move us from 25 to 9, but they can slowly make up for their mistakes each week.

I would also add our game was on CBS so some of the pollsters that had us low may have never seen us actually play and now realize we are good and move us from 22 to 12 and those moves will shoot us up.

Got it guys. Sort of an incremental correction.

Well, I hope you guys are right. I'm going to stick with 11 and hope I'm wrong and we ease into the top 10.
 
Undefeated in the ACC; Miami should be somewhere between 5-8, any thing else is BS. The early losses will not matter if you guys keep beating that ACC ***.

Cuse (maybe), Butler, and Oregon will all drop out of the top 10. I am projecting we jump MSU based on the past 2 games.

What's sad is, if our name was "North Carolina" or "Kentucky", we would easily be in the Top 10. No question.
