Does the streak end?

[cyclonestunners]

Does the loss to ku drop us another 4 spots and outside the top 25?

 

[awd4cy]

It might. Will be close.

 

[ISUCubswin]

Shouldn't.

But I definitely wouldn't put it past the **** heads of the AP.

 

[brianhos]

Losing to #1 on their home floor on senior night by a few points should not drop you... But it really does not matter, ISU wont be ranked at the beginning of next year anyway.

Shouldn't, but a close win against OSU at home to go with it doesn't help. I don't think we drop out, but will probably drop to 23 or so.

Agree, unless Morris comes back and Naz completes his redshirt.

 

[Cyclonepride]

It would be completely stupid if it did.

 

[CloneFan4]

The way we played we should be moving up in the polls. However the AP is incompetent so this won't happen.

 

[cyclones500]

Agree, unless Morris comes back and Naz completes his redshirt.

Also probably requires at least run to second weekend of tournament or such, for some carry-cover potential. If we are near no. 25 line at end of 2015-16, losing Niang, Nader and McKay, probably wouldn't start ranked even with full returnees.

We should? By beating a bad K-State team and OSU team at home, one of which was close? There is a reason our rpi is going down too. Humans voters aren't bring that down too.

Kentucky will jump us. Texas cannot jump, lost to Kansas att home by 30. Cal lost to Arizona. SMU May win twice but was more than 200 pts behind us in voting. Safe for at least another week.

 

[clonetone]

I don't think we'll be out on Monday 3/7, but if we lose to Oklahoma next Thursday we will be out on 3/14 in the last AP Poll of the year.

Depends on what we do in the tournament.

 

[cytheguy]

We lost to Kansas. In Kansas. They're number 1. We had the lead late in the game.

We're staying put.

What are you talking about? Our RPI hasn't moved more than a couple spots for weeks.

When he's posting, just read it as "grumble grumble grumble."

Oh man, that is perfect. Throw isuno1fan in there, too.

He's the reason I think we're peaking now.

I'm curious where we end up tourney seed wise. I know seeding doesn't follow rankings per se, but we can't hold a four seed now I don't think. Could we drop to a six if we don't beat OU? With monte's fatigue quote I just don't see much from ISU in the big 12 tourney.
