What's just going to be fucking hilarious is when we are ranked #2 this week - with games coming up @ Michigan State and @ Ohio State, this is probably the best chance Wisconsin ever will have to be ranked #1 in college hoops. And we're going to get fucked by the big name bias once again. Let's take a look at where the teams differ: Wisconsin has more depth, more experience, plays better defense, has more quality wins, has taken care of its business against elite competition, and oh yeah, WISCONSIN ALREADY BEAT OHIO STATE. Ohio State has...a bunch of big-name freshmen and a coach who looks like he got hit in the face with a shovel as a child. But somehow, that all adds up to this: 1. Ohio State 2. Wisconsin
For the first time all season, I KNOW that we deserve the #1 spot - you guys know I'm cautious as hell of jinxing Bucky, but there's no disputing it in my mind: the Badgers deserve to be #1 in the country. 1.

Old Dominion 32. BYU 33. Oklahoma State (what the F happened to these guys?) 34. UNLV 35. Villanova Has there ever been a more lame-duck 19-7 team than Clemson? All these guys do is implode when they have a chance to impress. Today they would've locked up a Tourney bid with a home win over Maryland, a team that is squarely on the bubble. What happens? They lose at home by 16 points, and only score 6 points the last 5 minutes It's when teams like Clemson get a bid that I lose faith in the system.

Don't sweat it. I edit mine 10-20 times before I'm done. And I can empathize about OSU/Wisky. I'm seeing the same **** happen with MSU and Texas. You'd think that beating them, having pretty much the same winning %, and having a stronger strength of schedule would put us over them, but Kevin Durant makes them the sexy pick.

Schaddy and C.K., your #13 and #17 team respectively just got blown out by Arizona State today. Just a heads up.
Oh Lawd, doesn't ANYONE want to head into their conference tourney with some momentum? EDIT: ^ you guys have too much time on your hands, but those = x 11ty
Alright, I know that most of you are probably not done editing your rankings, but in the interest of time, I've already started tallying them up and writing on them, so if you have any changes to make, that's okay, but just post in detail what those changes were so I can adjust the voting.
