Excellent showing, better than I expected

7 of 10 Big East teams receiving votes. That's pretty impressive. Hopefully a couple of the unranked teams can go undefeated this week and climb in the Top 25.

So 20% of our teams are in the top 25 and 70% getting votes.

Meanwhile, our "competition" has:
AAC: 0% ranked, 9% receiving votes
A-10: 0% ranked, 7% recieving votes

And had a few shots gone the other way we could've easily had more ranked. Oh well, this one is for you stever20 *drinks diet coke*

Actually AAC has 9% ranked and 18% receiving votes (UConn ranked 23 in coaches, Memphis getting votes).

We're off to a great start. Best in the country. But still a LOT of OOC action left.
(using ken pom ratings)
Nova- #23 Illinois, #16 Syracuse
Georgetown- #10 Kansas, #90 Charlotte, #63 Indiana
Butler- #97 Tennessee, #63 Indiana, #85 Belmont
PC- #88 Rhode Island, #59 UMass, #21 Miami
St John's- #16 Syracuse, #64 St Mary's, #2 Duke
Xavier- #61 Alabama, #62 Cincy
Creighton- #72 Tulsa, #47 Nebraska, #64 St Mary's
Seton Hall- #7 Wichita St, #68 Georgia
Marquette- #4 Wisconsin, #81 Arizona St
DePaul- #60 George Washington, #96 Illinois St, #75 Colorado, plus 2 more games in Diamond Head

So still 26 top 100 games left plus maybe 2 more. So far we are 14-8 against current top 100 teams. So we're not even halfway done with all the tough games left.

stever, I miss your retorts about how the sky really is falling. Where you at?
