Rankings for 2021-22

Early ballot returns suggest Marquette will barely hang in and Xavier/UCONN will be out.

kind of makes sense. when you're 24/25 and you lose you're precarious.

Agreed. Just a question of how far they fall in RV.

From Dick Vitale:
6 Providence
11 Villanova
23 Marquette

Oh, and Bynum his player of the week(going Sun-Sat).

[Friarsfan94]

Bynum’s making a serious run at first team all conference. He’s been playing like freaking Trae Young the last month or so.

Think this is the first time this year we've had two top 10 teams. Perfect timing for tomorrow.

3 teams in is fair for this week, and still pretty good given there are two just outside the rankings.

Yeah CBSSN has to be thrilled with that. Probably game of the year.

Marquette came 3 points short of being ranked (77 vs. 80). Ouch. Xavier had 51 points, so there's a bit of a dropoff.

Happy for Friars fans. CU had a couple years where it felt like everything was coming up roses, until Mo Watson tore his ACL and then Zegarowski tore his ACL. May god grant you a reprieve from our fate.

I do wonder how many games we think PC will lose before the conference year is over? They escape three difficult games but still have Nova twice and at Butler. My guess is 2 more losses.

2/18 NET rankings:

5 Nova
18 UCONN
24 Xavier
30 Providence
32 Marquette
34 Seton Hall
66 Creighton
78 St. John's
108 DePaul
118 Butler
209 Georgetown

We're tantalizingly close to the ideal scenario of 6 in top 30 and 8 in top 75. No excuse for any team to be outside 135 (Q2 road win), though.
