I'm starting to understand now... If we WIN games, then we have a better ranking. Why don't we just win our games? No?

Good plan. I'll put it in the suggestion box.

Their starting center Manny Bates was lost to start the season and that reality didn't hit until they started to play good teams.

All the grade schoolers on HHC will get a monday morning chuckle on this one: They say at NC State that he was a Master center.

This #133 rating puts us as analytically one of the best 10 win teams in the last decade.  Pittsburgh has the crown from last year with a shortened season 10-12.

2011 - South Florida - 10-23 - #129

I'll dig back further if our season does end at 10 wins

A dubious distinction to be sure.  But in a dubious season, I suppose it's fitting.

10 days ago we were staring down the barrel of our all-time season ending low

[Norm Peterson]

Right now, we are guaranteed a better March record than either November or December.

 

When has that EVER happened before?

Okay well the championship is over and the final rankings are in.  I'll go ahead and post them here for posterity.  I still can't get over how low Wisconsin is and the fact that Rutgers made it in to the dance is borderline criminal IMO.

 

In the other teams of interest category:

Colorado is #79 and San Jose State is #288 

 

Here we go!

Gosh Western Illinois was our only truly bad loss that might have kept us out of the tournament… well that and our 20 other losses…
