Observations:
1. at least 8 or 9 bluebloods in the top 10.
2. St Mary's is low as west coast teams tend to be.
3. We are hanging with Gonzaga, Xavier, St. Mary's, UCLA. - not bad company.
4. Cinti and Minny seem high ... we seem a tad low.
5. Congrats to N'western, although I do NOT see them better than PU

no NW and Minny are behind Purdue, If needed Nojel makes life difficult for Nate Mason and his pull-up fade-aways...

The only thing worse than rankings are preseason rankings.

Just win b10 games.

I haven't studied the unbalanced schedules much but the BIG this year is a two team race between MSU and Purdue, with the schedule advantage to MSU.
Ninny may sneak up on some people, ditto UM and Iowa. NW is over hyped. They may get off the bubble and be a solid NCAA team but no way they contend for a BIG title. Purdue is a BIG title contender and will finish above both NW and Ninny in the BIG.

I'd replace Northwestern with Missouri
