I'm still hoping you can explain to me why you think that pollsters should base there rankings on where they think a team will lose in the tourney as opposed to SOS, win/loss record, and who you beat.

I mentioned the tourney before you brought it up. I'm not saying they should rank them lower because of the tourney, if you just watch them they aren't that good. Not top 10.

Where would you rank Duke? They play in the 1st or 2nd best conference, they're 22-5, and they've got a couple of good OOC wins.

So you are saying they shouldn't look at W/L record, SOS, and who you beat then?

If you're saying they're not top 10, then you're saying you dont care about what any team has done up to this point and you only care where you THINK they'll lose in the tourney.

It's so terribly flawed logic.

No from watching them play up to this point they don't belong in the top 10

They don't even need to consider this, i was just mentioning it as a side note on what they will do.

Then you OBVIOUSLY haven't watched other teams, because you want other teams who have the same record against worse opponents to be ranked ahead of them. IT makes ZERO sense.

I take it you're not older than 15? Or you just cant handle it when someone shows you facts, and you cower and resort to name calling.

Nice.

Where does Wake Forest deserve to be ranked? They are pretty much a consensus top-15 team, and Duke lost by 2 away and won by 10 at home.

You can keep saying that Duke is overrated and not a good team, but at the end of the day, they are 22-5, with 4 conference losses, while UNC is 24-3, with 3 conference losses.

Duke also has the 6th hardest strength of schedule in the country. They only lost one out of conference game all season, and they clearly had a legit OOC schedule.

BINGO!!

But because Barry thinks Duke will lose early, none of that matters and they shouldn't be top 10, lol.
