I agree. Too painful to drop Duke any lower for most. Heck even Vitale said he'd put Duke #3.

Is Gonzaga for real? I've watched a few of their games, but not against any competition I would consider elite. Kind of hard to see them slip into the #3 slot.

Those are two very good road wins. That and the fact that UVA is playing much better basketball right now than UK.

That said, UK's resume is better, and you don't replace the #1 team because they had a couple scares. No chance UVA or anyone else gets #1, unless UK loses, period. I don't care if we win every single SEC game in OT.

I bet a couple voters put UVA #1 though.

If Gonzaga moves up to the top 3 they'll stay there all year. They won't lose in that ***** conference.

UVA will get first place votes and so be it. UVA is on upset alert though tonight, so we may end up with all votes again.

Yeah, they are a bit embarrassing with the schedule.

I just think the voters will say Kaminsky was the difference there, and only punish Wisconsin by 1 spot. If anyone else is going to be #5, it should be Nova.

Duke got man handled by a team outside the top 50.

There's truthfully no way, by the rating system we use, that Duke should be in the top 3. In reality, they should probably fall anywhere from 4th-6th. You cannot excuse a team outside the top 50 beating your *** by dub digits if you are legit 1,2, or 3.

Duke will not be in the top 3 but they for sure won't fall from the top 5 due to Wisc , UL and Zona losing .

I personally would like to see Duke and Wisconsin win out and solidify a #1 seed in their bracket. I don't want to risk having to play either of them in the Elite Eight.

That would be my guess as well. T

he poll's will be very interesting this week with all the losses in the top 25. I expect Arkansas to move into the top 20, and Alabama to at least get some votes. Bet KU will be back in the top 10. I expect us to still be #1, but UVa to pick up a few #1 votes in both polls. They've definitely entered the discussion of possible title contenders.

Take Duke and UL out of the Top 5 and I'm sold.

Neither team deserves to be in the Top 5, especially 2 loss UL.
