2025-26 Rankings

[ADORAZ]

AP Top 25 (11/10/25):
#3 UConn (+1)
#13 St. John's (-8)
#23 Creighton (-)
RV:
T#39 Georgetown

Bad week for the conference, but fortunately just the first week. Creighton likely needs to win @ #19 Gonzaga tomorrow (or at least keep it very close) to remain ranked. UConn with a big opportunity vs. #7 BYU Saturday night.

Dropping us from 5 to 13 is kind of ridiculous we lost a close game to a good high ranked team.

AP Writers seem to be ignoring quality losses. We dropped 8 spots losing to ranked Bama. Florida dropped 7 spots losing to ranked Arizona. Kansas dropped 6 spots losing at ranked UNC.

I think that's fair for the first week at least. By end of the month we'll be seeing less of a reaction to single losses or wins.

I think we'll be #10 by the time we go to Vegas in two weeks.

We will have ample opportunity before the New Year to prove ourselves in these rankings against other Top 20 teams. The proof will be in the results so let’s sit back and hopefully enjoy the ride.

At home... Second "loss" at home. The rankings are barroom fodder. It's all about March.

If I had to choose between the two polls I choose the coaches because the writers are a bunch of shit stirrers with a pen/keyboard.

But then again coaches aren't watching ALL the games and they can carry a bias too.

Always nice to have a number next to our name. Just gotta build it back up.

A lot of coaches assign some lackey in the athletic department to vote for them.

I’m always partial to the coaches poll as well.
However the outlets always refer to the AP ranking, except for when ESPN sponsored the coaches poll a few years back.

I recall a Dan Hurley interview where he said he made Luke Murray vote for Big East preseason poll.
