Does the streak end?

I don't think we will drop out, but I wouldn't be shocked if we weren't ranked. Lose to OU and it isn't looking good.

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

Kentucky will jump ISU. SMU might, might not. No wins of interest but no losses. Texas will not because they got obliterated by Kansas in Austin. Cal will not, they lost @Arizona. Wisconsin might if they win @Purdue tomorrow. Seton Hall won't; they lost to Butler this week. I don't see four teams jumping over ISU this week. They played well in a solid effort @Kansas.

We could easily be 23 or 24. The OSU win at home sure isn't going to impress anyone. I agree though, hard to find more than 3 jump us. Kentucky is pretty much guaranteed though.

There's precedent for not dropping. Earlier in the year, #1 OU lost to a ranked team on the road and did not drop from the top spot.

Oh, wait, though, what was I thinking? We are Iowa State. Of course we'll get dropped.

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.

4 if we beat OU, 5 if we don't

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

We're staying put.

You assume that voters take time to notice anything but the final score

Agreed. ISU should be fine this week.

No.
