MU not in new rankings....

If the 2nd half of the Cinci game was as bad as the 1st, it could have been much, much worse. Kind of surprised we didn't fall a little bit more than we did. Slam PC and get some help elsewhere and Mu will be back in the rankings.

Fun while it lasted.

On the brighter side, MU did move up to #20 (from 21) in this week's official RPI per the NCAA despite the loss.

A lot of teams in the 20-29 range lost last week.

MU has one game this week, at home against Providence.

If MU get's a W on Saturday there is a chance we move up, but teams in front of us (21-25) don't have a very tough week.
Best chance is ND's loss to G-Town, Miami losing and holding off Wisconsin, San Diego State and UCLA from moving past us.

Mizzou not looking great against S. Carolina...

[MKE_GoldenEagleFan]

So while Mizzou pulls it out NC State coughs one up to Wake... Weird year.

There's a lot of mediocrity in college basketball this year. Also every top team has a significant weakness. This could be one of those years where a low seed, or a mid-major that gets hot, make the F4.
