Random question out of head... any chance we're still ranked tomorrow? I know it's rare a team doesn't drop after losing but...

I'd be surprised if we were still ranked. You don't stay ranked losing by 13 points when you're #25. Even if it's against the #1 school they'll find someone else to take your spot.

Yep, general rule of thumb in a typical 2 game week in cbb:

Win both: move up 4-5 spots
Lose both: move down 8-10 spots
Split, without a ranked win: move down 4-5 spots
Split, with a ranked win: stay the same

St John's and Rutgers should be out. Good chance we stay at 25.

Villanova has to be wondering what they need to offer Jay Wright to get him to come back. What a disaster hire for them…

Shrews was such an odd hire. He had a good, not great year in his second season at Penn State, and ND says "that's our guy!"

I respectfully disagree. Shrews is a pretty dang good coach IMO. (If anybody still cares about doing a lot with a little…and about X’s & O’s these days…that is.)You don’t spend that much time with Stevens and Painter and not learn some things.

They have two guys and that is it. I saw the score and thought the two freshmen didn’t play.
