Anytime MU can get a quality win from here on out it will be a big game, we have one RPI top 50 win so far (George Washington) and it's not a lock that at the end of the season they will stay top 50... We have also reached the point where we only play one team the rest of the season that is currently in the top 25... This isn't the old big east where conference play has several top 25 teams to get a signature win against.

It's not all doom and gloom though, currently 9 of the 10 Big East teams are RPI top 100 (Seton Hall is #112), and of those top 100 teams MU is the lowest at #99 and you have to figure that number will eventually go up. So we have very few shots at signature wins, but quite a few shots at above average wins... It will be interesting to see how the selection committee views that at the end of the year.
