CBS Compares Pre and Post Season AP Polls
Huskies were a +13. Ranked #41 in the pre-season, finishing 2011 at #28. Baylor was biggest gainer at +36.
And, of course, this only reflects teams that received votes in the poll.... so Toledo is nowhere to be found.

What I'd like to know is if certain teams regularly end up higher than they started, and certain teams regularly ending up lower.

Good point. NIU staff is upcoaching the players. ND is down coaching the all americans.

Either that or it's entirely dependent on media coverage and media perception.

The thing about being in the Big 10, you win 3 games in a row, you are in the top 25, no matter how bad the competition, or no matter how bad of a team you are.

Kind of like how Northwestern won 4 in a row this year and didn't receive a single vote, right? And how Ohio State won 3 in a row this year and wasn't ranked, right?

Don't confuse him with facts. Remember, he's just as messed up as this WIS11 character trolling around.
