#16 Florida State - Were on a roll and then lost at North Carolina.

#17 Villanova - Thank you Ex. Have now lost 3 in a row and 4 out of their last 5.

#18 Louisville - Granted, their schedule has been brutal but they've lost two in a row and 4 out of their last 5.

#19 Iowa State - Lost two in a row and 3 of their last 4.

To add to that, #20 Viriginia Tech lost albeit to #3 Virginia, and #21 Iowa lost to #24 Maryland. Polls are going to be hard to predict but I think UC falls somewhere between around #22 or #23. Win our final 3 and we have a small chance to have a top 15 game versus Houston. Hoping the bracketology talking heads move us up a seed line to 6 this week.

CBS (Palm) has us now as a 6 playing NC State in Hartford (Cane would like that)... ESPN (Lunardi) has not updated yet but I am sure we will probably be a 6 there also. In the updated RPI which NCAA will not use this year we moved up to 20.

Kansas dropped from #1 to #2 after they lost by 29 points ...they are nowhere close to being that high in the NET

Temple is 30 and UCF is 32 in the RPI so the AAC seems to rate out better in that system than in the NET Rankings.
