Incidentally, that game was our second worst defensive performance in kenpom history. We gave up 1.46 points per possession. The only worse game was at GTown in 2007.

And the 2002 loss to UCLA is the most points we have ever given up in any kenpom era game (105).

We had three top 75 wins that year (X, NC St, West Virginia). That was my freshman year at UC. I went to all those games, along with maybe a dozen other students who accidentally wandered into the arena.

That team played their hearts out, even if they were severely shorthanded.

Ok here is the ballot I most likely will be submiting for Tomorrows Reddit Poll.

Its a complete Shit show after the top 15 or so and even then its not easy. Everyone is losing in the back end of the top 25 so Im trying to reward teams who aren't losing.

Let me know what you think:
  1. Villanova
  2. Purdue
  3. Virginia
  4. Duke
  5. Kansas
  6. Xavier
  7. Cincinnati
  8. Michigan State
  9. Arizona
  10. West Virginia
  11. North Carolina
  12. Ohio State
  13. Oklahoma
  14. Wichita State
  15. St Marys
  16. Gonzaga
  17. Nevada
  18. Texas Tech
  19. Tennessee
  20. Rhode Island
  21. Clemson
  22. Auburn
  23. Arizona State
  24. Florida
  25. Louisville


I really want to put providence in their somewhere but Im on a wait and see basis with them. Need one more week of good performance before I move them.

Isn't Clemson a little better than that?

We should pass up a min of 3 teams in each poll (Tex Tech, WSU, and Oklahoma). I don't see us passing up MSU. The biggest question is how the voters treat WV.

That's fine...I just don't think we pass them up with our performance against UCF and ECU. Those aren't the type of performances that inspire voters to move us past other teams that also didn't lose.
