Voting Midmajors into the top 10 is a joke!

What about Louisville? Their win over UC today was their first win against a ranked team this year. They will definitely be top ten on Monday. Will you be adding them to your argument then?

Cool, well then next time, include Saint Louis and Nova (who is certainly meets your criteria, although they are in the Big East). And by the end of the season, you can also throw Creighton in there, even though they are also in the Big East.

Next time include them? Any Midmajor in the top ten is included, rest assured.

i am ignoring the facts?????

you guys ignore logic.

but have if you wanna brag about beating colorado fine......but they are barely a tourny team

if you wanna pump your chest over duke.....fine but they didn't start playing like a top 10 team until 2014[/QUOTE]

Lol come on man! This is your best argument?! You sir are the one who lacks logic. Whatever helps you feel better about your loss and helps you sleep, go right ahead and do that.

ah cuz how good a team was relative to when you guys actualy played them doesn't matter......

lmao you guys are dumber than a box of rocks:laugh3:

So we're talking about WSU, SDSU, and St Louis. And if your criteria is that the team has a cupcake schedule and doesn't win against against solid competition, then we should definitely be counting Nova, and Louisville (with Creighton knocking on the door). Got it, and I agree. Just wanted to make sure that we were counting all of them.

how do you know UVA is "solid" when they are beating up on the ACC? Same with the Duke team that you claim was bad in the nonconference. there's no chance that the league has sometime to do w/ it? None?

we won't know until the tourney, but to say that a league that might get 7/12 teams into the tourney has one solid team is laughable.

Cool, well then Duke's win over you isn't very impressive, because even by your account, SU is not the same team without Kieta. And you barely losing to Duke isn't very impressive either, because their play is pretty questionable right now too. So according to your logic, when it comes down to it, SU and Duke are not very solid right now. So at this point, #14 UVA is the only solid team in the ACC right now.

when two teams play in november, only the losing team can improve and be better later in the year. it's in the rulebooks, guys! we were the best we could possibly be (2 frosh, 3 sophomores in our 7-man rotation) so the fact that duke got better over the next 3 months means they would beat us by 100 now and we are bad. because we beat them in November. end of argument, johnnyboy wins again!

Haha well said. It's such a cop out and down right ridiculous to say "well when you guys played them, they weren't as good but now they are good so our loss is justified." Please lol. We might as well start the season in March because nothing prior to that counts. Hahaha what a joke of an argument. Whatever helps ya sleep better Johnny-O

Lol relative? Okay fine. Let's see, Duke was ranked 6th when we faced them in New York. How's that for relative? Lol just stop while you're down buddy.

they were ranked only because of the preseason hype.

have you totally forgotten the whole "having one of their lowest rankings in a several years" fiasco.

no....you don't because you are just a dumbass blinded by his own homerism.

only zona fans think duke was as good during their ooc and first few ACC games as they are when they played syracuse. not a single guy at espn cbs foxsports si etc. would ever argue that duke in november is as good as duke in late jan/feb

damn that preseason hype! they were so very wrong to put duke in the top 10 because they clearly aren't good enough now that we are through most of the season and they are unran.....wait, hold up....they ARE ranked in the top 10? so the preseason hype was almost exactly what it should have been....

hmmmmm

Hahaha I was just gonna write that. They started the season ranked 4th if I'm correct and have been top ten all year. Another great argument from Johnny-O

nope they fell out of the top 10 after losing to clemson and ND at the beginning of ACC play. their hot streak (when they played a garbage schedule besides UVA @ home) brought them back to top 5

And Duke was still ranked #7 when they lost to ND. It was only after then and losing to Clemson (over a month after losing to AZ) that they started to fall.

So obviously no one thought that Duke was that bad if they stayed in the top ten the entire time. If everyone really thought that they were just all preseason hype, then they would have fallen much further, sooner. Your argument still holds no weight. Man, johnny, you gotta make it more difficult for us to completely poke holes in your argument. It's too easy.
