I would rush to the arc and jump/side bump rod right now if someone would call a time out.

It's too bad or actual ranking won't actually reflect that, I hate being one loss away from being unranked.

I'm starting to buy into the "college basketball is down" talking point.

Whenever someone says this it usually means that there isn't one or two dominant teams at the top of the poll, or the dominant teams are unexpected.  This doesn't effect teams 5-318.  I don't agree CBB is down & if I were Michigan I'd be pissed.

Goodman is a big proponent of using head to head as a tiebreaker for teams with similar records. So sandwiched between Gonzaga and Florida is about right.

Chuck's EMAW is showing 

[cfbandyman]

Not that the ESPN power poll matters much (and we're #24) but what surprised me is Seth Greenburg is now carrying the torch for EMAW Nation by having us at 15 vs. Katz's 18.

Mods, someone slap #18 on top of the PAK head, please.

Who the eff is this Gasaway character?  Florida at #8 and Kansas State out?  Ohio State at #13 and Illinois at #18?  Goddamned Kentucky at #10?  What a rough ridin' dunce.

5th time in 6 years that we have been ranked in the top 20 at some point during the season.  This is a trend i would love to see continue

Clearly he hates Illinois sys, clearly.  Definitely an anti-Illini agenda in the works for Mr. Gasaway.  I'm just waiting to see what his end-game is.

Duh, we beat his pud team's ass two years in a row. He's our bitch and he likes it.

self hate, the worst kind of hate.

Those of you that have been around for a while will remember John Gasaway as the Big Ten Wonk while those of you that haven’t are certainly familiar with his work at Basketball Prospectus and ESPN Insider. We figured there wasn’t a better time to pick Gasaway’s brain than the Friday before Michigan’s first match-up with his alma mater, Illinois.
