just a general statement the zags have their last challenge of the regular season in the form of stanford on the 11th.

good to see unc ranked for the showdown against the dukies on the 7th.

the buffs are ranked yet have only played one ranked team, losing to texas.

Kind of weird to see Illinois fall only 3 spots for a loss at home to PSU. In my opinion, that is a very, very bad loss.

Also kind of odd to only see scUM fall 2 spots after getting the tar beaten out of them by a decent, but by no means spectacular, Iowa team.

NCAA official RPI college basketball ratings

By the Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS | The Rating Percentage Index (RPI) has been used by the NCAA since 1981 to supplement the selection of at-large teams and the seeding of all teams for the NCAA basketball tournament. This is the official list of rankings, as released by the NCAA. The RPI is derived from three component factors: Div. I winning percentage (25)%, schedule strength (50)%; and opponent?s schedule strength (25)%. Games against non-Division I opponents are not used in calculating the RPI. Beginning with the 2004-05 season, road wins are weighed at 1.4; road losses at .6; home wins at .6; and home losses at 1.4. Neutral-site games are valued at 1.0. The NCAA provides only rankings without calculations.

Here are the Top 50 teams, with records through Tuesday, and conference plus local teams and other notable schools:
1. Duke (22-1), ACC
2. Villanova (18-2), Big East
3. Tennessee (17-3), SEC
4. Memphis (21-2), C-USA

After the big win today over Illinois, wheres everyone think we'll be ranked? Quite a few teams dropped a game or had some very close/ugly games that were ranked around us.
I think we'll move up to 12-14 personally.

A lot of teams have lost above us and we have a series of quality wins.

I just did some quick numbers on the computer ratings. I reckon we will be #6 or #7 across the board now. The human polls are lagging but I think will catch up a bit more if we win against Wisconsin, which will not be easy.

So, my guess is that we will come in at #12 or #13 and that we will be top ten if we beat Wisconsin and Michigan State.

This was a big, visible, and decisive win. Coupled with our first top 25 road win this week and I think we will move up sharply this week in the polls.

I believe this is the first time we've beaten two ranked opponents in one week in some time.

I am hopeful that we get to at least #12 after this win, maybe even #10-11. At this point, though, our ranking is not what I'm concerned with. I was a top 3 seed in the Big Ten Tourney such that we get the extra rest and play a not-rested opponent. Of course I also want a Big Ten Championship :biggrin:
