Congrats to the ladies; bummed about Baylor though. Even less people are going to show up on Wednesday.

I really enjoy watching Kelsey Griffin play. She plays the game right. She works hard, takes what the defense gives her and takes a beating out there. I hope the Huskers get a shot at Uconn, do we beat them..probably not but i want to see how good the lady huskers are.

 

Enjoy this year because we lose griffin,turner,montgromery next year.

Wow..I can't remember when the last time (if ever) I watched a NCAA Women's Tourney bball game. Should be a fun ride hopefully.

No complains on girls side. I can't believe G'Town is in top 8 with 5 losses.

Talking about men's basketball there.

 

I can understand G'town staying up there, seeing as how BYU, N Iowa, and New Mexico have yet to prove consistency.

They did just embarrass a good Villanova team.

I still honestly think that Nebraska should be #2 given they have beaten the most Top 25 teams, I do believe

Sagarin has us at #3, and I'm pretty comfortable with that rank. His ranks go:

 

 

Team	       W	L	SOS	25W	25L
1. UConn 	23	0	15	6	0
2. Stanford	21	1	6	5	1
3. Nebraska	21	0	27	6	0
4. Tennessee	21	2	2	5	2
5. Notre Dame	21	1	30	3	1

25W & 25L are wins/losses vs. his top 25 teams.

 

RealTimeRPI has our RPI fourth:

 

1. UConn - .7277

2. Stanford - .7227

3. Tennessee - .7076

4. Nebraska - .6955

5. Notre Dame - .6921

 

We're in pretty good company right now. We could be ranked higher, but I'm happy with #3. There's no shame in that ranking based on who we're ranked among.

[Jadler]

I'm happy with 3rd. Seeing how Stanford's only loss came to @UConn.
