Sagarin has KU, OU and ISU 9, 10 and 11 respectively. Baylor is 16th, Texas 19th, WVU 21st, and Okie State 26th. Can't speak enough about how much of a gauntlet the Big 12 has become.

If Iowa hadn't screwed the pooch the last week or so, we could have another top 25 Sagarin win (Iowa is 33rd)

If I had to chose just one of these every year I'd easily go with Sagarin, least anomalies of all the well known polls year after year. You could argue Oklahoma and Ohio State are a little high, but other than that it's very good as usual and a much better measure than the other commonly referenced computer rankings.

Plus you have our two wins against #26 OK State...who isn't top 25 because we swept them. I'm guessing they will be back there by nature of Big 12 SOS soon though.

So they predict ISU to run the table and Kansas to lose @OU. Interesting.....

But pretty reasonable. We're both similarly rated teams and id imagine it would expect (or did expect) us both to lose @OU. We've already gotten that out of the way

Man, running the last 7 games of the regular season? That would be amazing. We would have to be the top 3rd seed or a number 2 seed.

If we run the rest of the table and win the Big 12 tournament that's an easy 2 seed, even if KU were to win out as well.

For what its worth, the best case seeding we could get (in my opinion) is the second # 3 seed (#10 overall). This would avoid the case of being the lowest #2/highest #3 which would pit us against UK in the elite 8. I just dont think we can get the 3rd #2 (#7 overall) and avoid UK. Dont want to see them until at least the final four, which is very likely. Drinking lots of kool-aid over here.
