If we can manage to pull out a win on Saturday; we should be able to move up quite a bit next week. All of the following teams lost this week; many of them badly; many of them to bad teams.

10 Oklahoma State
11 Kentucky
12 Iowa
13 Wisconsin
17 Pitt
18 Iowa State
19 UMass

Oklahoma State, Kentucky and Iowa might be a little too far to catch; but when you look at their overall resumes; ours is better.

Do you think we will win Saturday? I do.

Saturday is going to be a tough game. It's on the road, and KenPom has us and SMU about equally ranked. I'll be curious to see what the line is.

Moody is sold out. I surmise SMU overlooked USF in anticipation of playing Memphis. They will be fired up and I expect we will get their best effort. It will be a tough game to win.

Beating SMU on the road will be impressive, Theyre already promoting that WE have THE current longest road conference win streak....That's justifies a nice leap IF we continue to "Just WIN Baby"

Especially with high raking teams from Major conferences losing to inter-conference non-ranked teams, our conference road wins are becoming equally as impressive as a win against a ranked opponent

We'll see what that midget point guard can do against us. He's awfully fast and they're big up front. Should be fun. A "quiet" RPI boost if we win.

Yes, This will be extremely tough. SMU is undefeated at home this year and will be ready. I believe the Tigers will be ready as well.

Line is going to open with us a 4 point dog.

SMU is 10-0 at home; it's going to be a tough game. Moreira being injured is pretty huge.

That's why I'm a bit surprised.
