Good to see 5 teams in NCAA range. Disappointing to see X so low, think they are better than that but the close losses to Auburn and LBSU hurt.


For comparison, latest from RPI Forecast, which is a more reliable measure IMO:

10. Villanova
21. Butler
22. Xavier
28. St. John's
35. Seton Hall
41. Georgetown
42. Providence
104. Marquette
118. Creighton
205. DePaul

That puts 7 in tournament range!



if the B12 can have 7 ranked teams why cant we?

B12 is good but having 7 ranked teams is kind of a joke. TCU is undefeated which is nice but their SOS is 330, they have no top 50 wins and their best win Ole Miss. Their schedule is cupcake city. Baylor is good but they also have no top 50 wins either (their best win being Texas A&M).
