Still #5 Coaches, #6 AP. Pitt didn't drop below us, and probably shouldn't have given that they lost a close game on the road to a ranked conference foe. Still say that UNC should be below us in the AP, but right now it doesn't matter. UTerus didn't drop much, which says how much the polls believe that we have a strong team..Cannot disagree with Wake being #1. They have beaten UNC and Clemson (on the road) and are the only undefeated left. Duke at #2 is good, as well, with a nice win over G'Town. Don't be shocked if Pitt goes down at home tonight against SU. Bottom line is that we are sitting well right now, and if we keep on keepin' on, we'll be a #1 seed.

Now, in Bracketology, I disagree with two things, both involve Big XII teams.

1) Mizzou getting put in KC as an #11. How do you pull that off?

2) A&M being out. They beat Baylor earlier in the week and gave us a great game on Saturday. I wouldn't be shocked if A&M ends up better than UTerus. At least they have consistent PG play.

If you think Mizzou should be out, then so should A&M. Their resumes are almost identical. A&M will have a better chance to play itself in if it can pick up some wins in the South.

Interesting that he's got 6 B12 teams in. Virtually every other talking head I've heard to this point only has 5 from the B12 dancing.
