[QUOTE="danielb927, post: 1360055, member: 3372"] We're a long way from end of season, so I don't know that looking at end of season ranking compared to current ranking this year is a great metric. Another option might be worst-case during any year (can only do this back to around 2011). Lowest KP ranking before any game by season, last 5 seasons: 2014: 93 2015: 73 2016: 141 (also, as low as 100 even before Thorne's injury) 2017: 92 2018: 108 So, I dunno, 108th vs 92nd/93rd? I guess that's about the same as 93rd vs 76th. Sure, it's the low point discounting 2016, but honestly I would lump those all into a big pool called mediocre, non-tournament quality teams. We're not all of a sudden 2016 Rutgers, or something. [/QUOTE]
