    Top 25 rankings RU KIDDING ME!!!

    ESPN just dropped their new rankings for this week . . .

    http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/rankings?pollId=2

    Louisville is still not ranked! This is so fu*kin ridic, how the hell is marq still ranked when we beat them by 20 twice. You know Im glad they didnt rank us keep us flying under the radar until march. We are easily a top 20 team this is sickning the lack of respect this school gets nationally. w/e keep disrepecting this team and watch this tournament push after we win the big east.

    Blah. Top 25 Rankings are over-rated. They're top 17 in the two places that matter RPI (17) and Strength of Schedule (10)

    Honestly who cares? What difference does it make if you are ranked or not? It's nothing but a number.

    Rankings have been notoriously biased in various ways ever since I can remember. The stat-based rankings are all anyone cares about anymore when they are really looking to see how good a team is in relation to others.

    Agree, Louisville and Purdue are two teams that go at least to sweet 16, and prob 1 in final 4.

    RPI is even more useless than the top 25 rankings.

    Give me odds on Purdue NOT making the Final Four. PLEASE!

    Almost as big of an injustice as L'ville not cracking the top 25 is Arkansas being left out.

    I don't know how Vandy and Wazzou are still in the top 20, let alone the top 25. Ridiculous.

    UCONN should be in the top 10.

    i've never put stock in a coaches poll, cause its all favoritism. i remember reading an article about Steve Spurrier, he has said he votes for Duke because they gave him his first head coaching job, and if you notice they always get a vote even though they ain't worth a crap in football.
