I really wonder if these 4 teams are all gassed after their games and the quick turn around and phased in to make this round a track meet and worry about defense when they get home.
Because it's pretty fast out there haha.

This Maui tourney has had some really fun high-level games in the first two days.
They were ranked 52nd on Torvik yesterday when I made that comment so its not that weird. Obviously after seeing them in person the last 2 nights they are a good team and look like a clear NCAA team.
People get WAY too caught up in the the name on the league patch on the front of the jersey.
Go Dayton, an 0-3 UConn is something I would be thankful for this Thanksgiving
Drake and Kenpom is hilarious...
They were 53 last year, not bad at all.
But because these ratings now try to account somewhat for what you're returning, losing and new players coming in, they understandably started out terrible losing the whole team without bringing in elite players and are down at 79 even after this great start.
A very rare case where an early season computer ranking would be better off ignoring the fact that they were good last year, lost everybody and brought in a bunch of D2 players. Should have just started them at 53 quality and watched it climb. Who could possibly know or guess?
