That was an amazing game and win tonight vs a big time Pac-10 team. We have a trap game Saturday vs a very good Old Dominion team who did beat Charlotte away by 1. Lets all enjoy this for the rest of the night for me its going to be about 10 min. Starting 4-0 would be impressive since none of the games are in Bartow and the RPI would be looking good come March. So lets go out there Saturday take care of business and then look to winning this damn thing!!! 4-0 after Saturday then Win the NIT get to 6-0 coming home!! Make the top 25, work is going to go by just a bit faster the next couple of days.

GO BLAZERS AND GOODNIGHT

Correction:
If we are 6-0 coming home with wins over Arizona, Oklahoma and BC or Purdue, we aren't Top 25, we are top 10, maybe higher.

Regardless of record, I want the Blazers back home for a loud and wild home game!! I don't know how I'm going to pass the time....

You really think so?

We won't be Top 10 for sure, Top 20 is probably more like it. But its all good as long as we get attention.

One game at a time. ODU is up next and this will be our 4th straight road game. Yeah I know these last two games were "neutral" court games wink wink but whateva.

Winning 4 straight on the road is never easy. ODU will be ready and I hope UAB will be ready as well.

Go UAB!

Major trap game Saturday.

ODU has a big guy named Lee I think. We should know if we can play vs good big guys by end of preconference with looming battle vs potential #1 draft pick big guy at OK.

Louisville has 2 beasts down low as well.

Troy was a home game.

Didn't Butler get launched into the Top Ten by winning this same tournament last year?

When do the new polls come out?

If we beat ODU are we top 25 going into New York?

One game at a time.

(Although I can't wait to see this team in person on 12/3.)

I HIGHLY doubt it...we didn't get a single coach vote and only one AP voter (Louisiana guy) put us in the top 25 again this week.
Poll voters are a textbook example of one of Newton's motion laws. It takes a LOT of force to get them moving from a stationary position.

+1
If we beat ODU and make it to the NIT Championship game, I think we'll definately be top 25, probably around 15 if we do all this. But that would be on the week after nexts rankings.

Like the thread says. Lets just take care of ODU. Then we'll worry about rankings.
