Not sure what the logic is behind that. Must feel that OSU's home court advantage at Gill is worth >3 pts. Loss to #32 Marquette still weighing us down apparently.
Yet a sign of respect I guess for OSU, that UW takes the loss and stays at #8. OSU moves up from #11 to #9.
It's still very early and anything that's fuel for the fire is a good thing.

Thanks for posting and updating on this particular 'poll'.
I have not looked at the data used, but am I correct in assuming that it tries to tie RPI and home and away, versus ranked opponents, as a measure ?

It should be described somewhere within their web site. |

Thanks, based on the headings alone, it appears to be 'record based' vs a qualitative strength of schedule 'estimate'. This means some built in bias as they have our SOS at 42. I think our real RPI is much higher from a more valid source.

Massey has a nifty "simulate season" feature. I ran through the Pac-12 and their projections are:
1. UW 14.0-4.0
2. STAN 13.5-4.5
3. OSU 13.4-4.6
4. UCLA 12.1-5.9
5. ASU 10.3-7.7
6. CAL 9.7-8.3
and everyone else gets a losing record. Every game is going to be huge. I doubt more than four teams from the Pac will get a top-4 seed in the NCAAs and the right to host in the first two rounds.
