Indiana now has wins over UNC and Kansas. Butler gets them in a couple of weeks in a place they've traditionally dominated. Could be something to note

Wow Cincy just beat Iowa St on the road.... Great for the Big East with Butler and Xavier having them coming up. Cincy probably gets in the top 25 this week.

thought I posted this last night but for whatever reason not approved....

but-
Cincy upset Iowa St last night. Great news for the Big East in 2 ways actually- gives Big 12 a loss, and then also Cincy is a direct opponent for Butler and Xavier- so a better team. Cincy will be ranked when they play Butler now next week almost guaranteed.

Weird, almost as if the moderators here have jobs and families that also occupy their time :D
This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

I'd much rather CIncinnati lose every game and kill Xavier's strength of schedule

How to explain the parity of college hoops. Pitt looks good in wins vs Marq and Md., then loses to Duquesne who lost to UMBC and Canisius. SJU blows out Tulane away but the team they just lost to at home loses big vs a bad U Del team. It might be one of those years with 20 teams on the bubble come March.

Gummy, you know he reason for that. It's only December 2nd, and they're just college kids.
