Looks like ESPN has us in the Big 10 now...

Odd, considering the conference summary last week was correct ... all you have to do is carry over.

Baylor stays atop AP poll; Arizona rises to No. 6

Defending national champion Baylor maintained its top spot in the Associated Press men's college basketball poll, though not without ceding a No. 1 vote to Arizona, while the six remaining unbeatens continued their rise on Monday.

Luke DeCock shouldn't have a vote. Dude is consistently anti Big 12 and pro ACC.

First time ever moving up when ranked #9?

I got a chuckle from reference to ISU as "Silo Tech." I have to admit, that's pretty good ... is that a common swipe among KU fans? I hadn't encountered that before.

When I read that for some reason I thought that was directed at K-State.

 

[cyclones500]

I feel like I'm doing fish-in-barrel about the poll stragglers, at this point -- ISU completely off the NR list for first time this season.

This guy loves the Big 10. Must love their D.

I thought it was Texas Tech they meant.

Perhaps it did mean KSU -- I connected it to an ISU reference in the post -- I guess either might apply (from KU down-the-nose perspective).

USC has beaten absolutely nobody and they aren’t a name program. How are they ranked higher than us? I know it means nothing and we have a tough schedule coming up but at some point logic has to enter the equation.

He's obviously trolling. It brings attention to him. I don't know how he gets to keep his position as someone who gets to vote, however. Surely there are plenty of people who would be willing to do the job correctly.

Agreed. I’m more interested in why Lauren Brownlow dropped us from 17 last week to 25 this week. Odd to drop a team 8 spots for winning a game by 31…

Newell is a Jayhawk shill. Not surprised of his ridiculous takes.

They were off the NR list last week too. And only had two votes hen #25 last week vs three this week. We'd be #7 if any of those three voters voted more in line with their peers

Three voters have us #25 is why

I’ve had similar question. They did start the season ranked where we did not. And have gone undefeated as well - although no impressive wins as you point out. That’s the only explanation I can think of. They have played really good defense this year holding each of their opponents to under 40% so possible the analytics like them too (I’m too lazy to actually look it up).

Their so full of themselves. Basically every complaint is that other teams don't worship them. Everyone is inferior to their level. Plus they think their fans are nice. The one guy saying they have the best fans it's not their fault the university doesn't care about football... Right...

Essentially, fans don't like opposing fanbases that are loud and proud. If those loud and proud fans live in your neighborhood, the dislike gets more intense. We get annoyed by fans who mirror our behavior in different colors.

It's funny to hear them call us arrogant. KU basketball fans are as arrogant as they come, and I take pleasure in annoying the hell out of them in KC. We like to have fun that weekend. Deal with it.
