I would like to say this looks very good. I think this is a better poll than the AP or ESPN poll. I'm glad to see us giving respect to some teams like Creighton that deserve it. Now... Gripes: Kentucky ahead of Louisville. Okay, that's my fault too. I should have worked a little harder on my top 25, I guess, if that didn't jump out at me. Kentucky ahead of Georgia Tech. Georgia Tech has better wins and hasn't struggled in as many close games as the Wildcats. Their lose was in double overtime. Cincinnati below Kansas. Kansas lost twice, Cincinnati is undefeated, and they're for real. See their 30 point deconstruction of then undefeated Dayton. Illinois so high. If you haven't noticed, they phone in almost every game. I've yet to see an inspired performance from them, and a team that admits they "gave up" against Providence ranks very low in heart and credibility to me. If they weren't at home, there would be a good chance they'd lose to a bad Ohio State team. Mississippi State sneaking in the back end of the rankings. Sure, they're undefeated, but who have they played? You know who else is undefeated, Georgetown. But no one is voting for them, and rightfully so. Why does this team get the love? A two point win over UAB at home? A 5 point win at Santa Clara? I took both South Carolina and Seton Hall over these guys, and would take Western Michigan over them too (Western Michigan played UAB away, and won by 7). Oh, and Stanford should be ahead of, not tied with Arizona.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting AI-3:</div><div class="quote_post">iowa should be ranked aleast 25</div>well, I do like Iowa this season, but they just lost three of their last four, culminating in a 20 point smackdown to Missouri. So no, they shouldn't be ranked at least 25. I think Purdue is the only 3-loss team I put in my top 25, and that's because they beat Duke, and lost a couple games by 1 point.

Where do your votes come from. Why don't you have a thread getting us posters to vote for teams as well?
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting franchise3:</div><div class="quote_post">Where do your votes come from. Why don't you have a thread getting us posters to vote for teams as well?</div> We have ten members who vote on it (soon to be a lot less). We all decided that it was best to not have a thread getting posters to vote for teams as well. We're looking for replacements on the voting team right now, so if you want to be on it PM me.
