I'm surprised we weren't ranked. More surprised Indiana wasn't ranked.

I’m not. While most “experts” recently have given MU love. We were never really on many top 25 radars til recently. Actually more surprised with the number of votes received.

Mississippi State ain't doing shit. It doesn't matter who they have.

I have a feeling Va Tech could be Top 10 good.

Otherwise, it's mostly the same poll we've been seeing since last April.

7th place team in the Big East last year, just missed the Top 25 is not bad.

The bottom part of that part 25 and the receiving votes is just all one big group. Beat Indiana or Kansas and they're in.

Preseason basketball polls are an even more pointless exercise than football, about the only thing they did was bring some of us (including me) to this board for the first time since April

That being said we play #14 Oregon twice which is cool

Back to making fun of the polls we play Creighton in the Cayman Islands classic, Creighton didn't get a single vote? They always make their way up there

I agree that this year is Buzz's best team.

How deep is the ACC? The ACC has SEVEN ranked teams with four others receiving votes!

They lose a ton off last year's team. If they made the tournament that'd be a slight surprise IMO.

That's a tough ask. If you manage to split those that'd be a pretty good look.

I couldn't care less about college bball anymore, but these rankings are bad.

And I see the committee still trying to pump up middle-of-the-road ACC teams.

Villanova too low btw.

Every major conference is down except for the ACC and SEC. So, they should rule the roost.

Also a good year for mid majors to step up and grab bids.

Loyola wrecked my bracket last year. But that's the magic of The Tourney. I enjoyed their run.

Makes me a little sick to stomach seeing Nevada ranked in the top 10.

I think they are ranked a tad bit too high. I get they are a talented team but I can't see them being there all year. They lost to Loyola last year and what's funny is they play Loyola again in the Mountain West-Missouri Valley Conference Challenge. I don't think they make it out of their non-conference schedule without a loss.
