That one is our efficiency. ESPN’s resume metric (SOR) has sju at #9. https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/bpi/_/view/resumeWhile lower than I would hope, this makes much more sense than the CBS power ranking:

It's a prove it to me rating after 30+ years.

Men's Bracketology: Houston tops No. 1 seeds in final preseason edition
Purdue, Florida and Duke round out the top line as tipoff to the 2025-26 season nears.www.espn.com
Up to a five seed. A lot of the updated 2/6 brackets on the matrix site also has us in the 4-6 range (7 is in one outlier).
It's kind of crazy how soft the bubble appears to be. Arkansas went from dead to first team out and X is right behind them, despite losing to Creighton.
Where was that soft bubble when we needed it last year![]()

BE MORE RIGHT!!!!!!my current projection for the next couple weeks:
go 2-0 this week.... we are #23
Next week: beat X... #21
Following - beat GTown and Prov : #16
Feb 4 showdown... if Marq manages to remain unbeaten (which will include a win over UConn)... they might be top3 (given the current top6 lose)
Beat MARQ .... and THEN SMACK UConn AT UCONN.... say hi to your top 10 Johnnies....
I haven't even had a beer yet today!!! lol
This is all Rick Pitino my boy.KenPom improves from #15 to #14 after beating #36 UConn on the road by 6.
Oh. My. God. I don't even know how to handle this much success!!! Is this actually happening???
AP Top 8-9 at a MINIMUM on Monday, we'll see exactly how high!
Jon's right.
They're all must wins. Our fans dominated two games in the Bahamas in November. Make March a home stand!Back to Must Win games
But that certainly will be a lot easier on post season travel spending
