Man is perception reality with rankings. All losses good losses, 11 straight wins, can't crack the top 25.

Just in time for a road trip to zona where we drop at least one, and tumble back down the ladder.

I'm really starting to fear we may not make the tourney if we go 15-3 in conference.

Also the coaches think even less of us which I find shocking considering Hop's reputation.

    It sounds like Dickerson will play Thursday so I'm pretty confident we'll at least split. Losing one game means they won't be ranked though. TSIO for everyone else if they sweep.

    This is why I have the bracketology thread. We're solid as of now, but if we? get swept by the Zona schools we're? right on the bubble (probably a 10ish+ seed) and have a weak schedule to finish the season. If we? split I think we'll? drop slightly to a high 8 seed. My hope is at least splitting and only one other conference loss to go 16-2. Make the semis and that will be more than enough. Any less and we're probably on the bubble.

    No bad losses, but no wins against a top 60 RPI team. These games against the Arizona schools are huge. ASU is the conferences best bet for a second team. Arizona isn't very good, but they have a decent RPI to pad the resume.

    The good news is the bubble will be soft this year unless there are a lot of upsets in the conference tournaments.
