The Associated Press got it right: WVU #10.

The USA Today poll got it wrong: WVU #14.

Florida State, Houston and Creighton, all rightfully ranked below the Mountaineers in the AP poll, are ranked ABOVE the Mountaineers in the USA Today poll.

If Florida State, Houston and Creighton played WVU’s Big 12 schedule, who really thinks they would have a better Big 12 record than WVU in the toughest basketball conference in America this season?

Right!

AP has WVU women #18. Pretty impressive double-dipping for WVU sports!

Fortunately, national rankings go by the boards in March Madness. Win 6 games in a row and you're national champion. Don't even have to leave town to do it this year. A week or 2 in Indianapolis at 8 venues does it. What a time it will be for those who can safely make it to Indianapolis, if they even allow fans to watch in person!
