Maybe Austin can get ahold of whatever that Purdue guy was drinking today. 7-10 from downtown.

ODU gets another big win. Purdue knocks off Ohio State.
So who is #1? Kansas? 25-2 losses to Texas at home and Kansas St on the road 7 top 50 wins 1 top 25 win RPI #1 SOS #9 Texas? 23-4 losses to Pitt N, @usc, vs. Uconn, and @nebraska 7 top 50 wins 2 top 25 wins RPI #8 SOS #17 Ohio St? 25-2 losses @ Wisconsin and @ Purdue 7 top 50 wins 2 top 25 wins RPI #4 SOS #25 Pitt? 24-3 Losses to Tennesse N, vs. ND and @ st. John's. 7 top 50 wins 6 top 25 wins RPI #9 SOS #26 Duke? 24-2 Losses @ Florida St and @ St. Johns 6 top 50 wins 1 top 25 win RPI # 6 SOS #35 BYU? 24-2 Losses @ UCLA and @ New Mexico 7 top 50 wins 3 top 25 wins (+ 1 over #26) RPI # 2 SOS #21 SDSU? 25-1 loss @ BYU 4 top 50 wins 0 top 25 wins(2 wins vs. #26) RPI #3 SOS #33
In My mind based on those numbers you go #1 Pitt, #2 Ohio St, #3 Kansas, #4 BYU, #5 Texas # 6 SDSU, #7 Duke.
But pollsters being the stupid people they are I wouldn't be surprised to see Duke #1 on monday.

Here's hoping Duke gets upset by Georgia Tech tonight (although it's at Cameron, so slim chance). If that happens, then the top 5 teams in the country will have all gone down. Hello, #1 San Diego State. And BYU could have an outside chance at #2.
For us, after a 1-1 week? No idea. Best guess is we stay put around #9. Purdue may jump us after beating Ohio State.

Purdue definitely jumps us. The interesting thing is what do you do with a team like Uconn who beat us but then lost to Louisville. Frankly wouldn't be unjustified to drop us all the way to 14th, but I expect us to be around 12th.

Unfortunately, I think Duke gets #1. Honestly, I have yet to watch them play this year. Can't do it. Because everyone lost, though, and they are Duke, I think they move up.
Purdue had a great week, beating Wisconsin and Ohio State. Both were at home, but they won them both. They definitely jump us. Hope we won't be penalized too heavily for losing on the road to the #12/13 team.

I wouldn't be shocked if Duke were the 1 again. It wouldn't be right. But I wouldn't be surprised. SDSU plays NO ONE all year except BYU. Duke has the next softest schedule. If Duke gets the softest bracket again this year, something needs to drastically change. They're like the Syracuse of the ACC.

SportsNation online poll on #1 has Duke with 39% of votes, SD State second with 22%. As if an online poll means anything.

If I had a vote, I would vote for Kansas to remain #1 because they have the same record as Duke and they are simply a better team. Duke didn't prove anything to me by beating Georgia Tech and Kansas losing AT Kansas St. is not a huge upset in my eyes.

I'd probably vote for Ohio State.
