We received votes in both ESPN and AP polls. Ole Miss 20th and 25th respectively. Apparently ESPN thinks William and Mary is better than we are, seeing as though they received more votes for the Top 25 than we did. </p>

How did this team lose by 14 to Rider and also lose to Richmond? They're better than that.

No excuse for us not to be undefeated (or at the very least have only 1 loss to Missouri) right now.

we should not have lost to Mizzou since they lost to Richmond.

If we come out of the preseason 12-3, we are setup nice for SEC play assuming we take care of business then.

Butler has played 5 teams in the top 150 (granted all of these teams are in the top 60 as well) and won 2 times. That's not exactly impressive. Plus, Ohio State is only an RPI of 46. The Rider lost hurt big time, but the Richmond loss is not so bad.

Western Kentucky?? It would be huge if we could get the win there, but they are a pretty good team.

@ Houston looks to be a tough one. They beat Oklahoma. Oklahoma has lost to weak teams but they are 7-3 and have beaten Arkansas and the great John Pelphrey by 20.

@ San Diego. They also beat Oklahoma but are horrible everywhere else. Apparently beating Oklahoma isn't that great as I thought it was from the line before but it's still a name school like our UCLA win. San Diego also beat Houston. If we lose that one, I will lose my ****. They are 5-6. So @ Houston and @ San Diego should be wins but you never know with a Stansbury team.

@ WKU - should be at WKU. Only good win is Vandy and they have lost to LSU by 11 and South Carolina by 18.

I just see Stansbury losing another but I will take 12-3. 13-2 would be great.

That Western Kentucky game scares me a little. They have the style team that if they get really hot they can put up a ton of points really quickly. Almost like how we almost lost at St. Bonaventure last year. Those games during Christmas Break at smaller schools when no one is there scare me. No one to get you motivated, and the other team has something to prove.
