I think Creighton not being ranked is more of a reflection on how the media views PC as a program. They are looking at Creighton's loss at PC as a bad loss.

I don't agree with it. PC took UMass to OT on the UMass campus.

New coaches poll has come out. Creighton has moved from 24 up to 20, while Villanova went from 5 down to 9.

I think Nova was the ranked one. :) PC playing well of late and should be in the discussion soon.

Updated. Guess Providence is still on my mind after the game last weekend.

I'm thinking we will see a pattern here of using the Nova-Creighton game as more of a punishment of Nova than an elevation of Creighton.

EDIT: Nova 9 and CU 20 in AP too.

... and Xavier and Providence not even getting any votes in the AP poll. Oh, but "American University" is.

Good grief.

I guess someone was hammered when they sent in their vote.

NAILED IT!! :D

Maybe that person was drinking with Seth Davis. Check out his ballot, Creighton at #24 and he put Nebraska, yes, Nebraska as #26 or "in consideration."
