Good news #14 thru #19 all lost at least once this week.

Unfortunately, I think we will be long forgotten until the LSU game happens or we stay undefeated until that game. With the upcoming schedule, if we stay unbeaten, we won't garner many more votes than we already have. Teams in front need to lose and Loyola needs to beat Nevada!!!

[DungeonRealm]

You guys might be right, we will find out in an hour or two, but in reality there is no reason someone should vote for Villanova and not vote us equally at this point, we took it to those guys in their arena

Just going to have to keep on winning
Pretty dumb to see Villanova with 2 losses one of which was to us at their place with that many more points then us but whatever nothing we can control

[DungeonRealm]

Maybe one of the dumbest things is Florida St. who is 5-1 and just lost to Villanova on neutral court is still ranked 15th

Its all big conference bull

With the company we're now keeping, I must admit our 3-0 in the "Non Div 1" column appears a little embarrassing.

Oh boy. I can hear the howling from here.
A few highlights - NET top 5 - Ohio State, Virginia, Texas Tech, Michigan, Gonzaga.
Duke is #6. Loyola Marymount is #10, Kansas is #11, Belmont is #12. Radford is #22 Georgia Southern is #26, Furman is #48, Clemson is #51.
Abilene Christian is #55, Liberty is #60, Kentucky is #61.

Torches are prepared and the mobs are ready to move out of Kentucky already. Not that far to NCAA headquarters is Indianapolis. I am sure they are not too happy in Kansas either.

Last time I looked Furman was featured on Dick Vitale's ESPN page.

Good info in the article on the CBS Basketball page. It explains why we played 2 extra non NCAA Division 1 teams and why the connection to the AdvoCare Invitational.

Now ranked ahead of LSU.
