1. my poor SDSU Aztecs...

they haven't lived up to the expectations.

[NoGOPZone]

2. How often do you see

More PAC-12 teams that ACC teams in the poll?

Also, it appears there's a joke I'm not in on. Why is The Ohio State University The School that Shall Not be Named?

[El Supremo]

3. "The"?

Just for that you get no dessert.

[madinmaryland]

4. El is going to be an Ohio State fan next year!!

[joeybee12]

5. Gonzaga deserves it and Duke doesn't deserve those 5 #1 votes...

They can't win on the road, at least not against medicore+ teams.

[trumad]

6. No they don't

their toughest competito9n this year were ranked around 15 and they lost both games.

Early polls don't matter anyhow.

[joeybee12]

7. Everyone else has at least 4 losses and has lost lately...

They've got as good a case as anyone...

[trumad]

8. Again... The only comp they played against

They lost.

[joeybee12]

9. Yeah, but Miami lost to DUke...

That shoul drop them to about 15

[trumad]

10. I'm not saying Miami should be number one

If Gonzaga played in the ACC we would not being having this conversation.

[joeybee12]

11. Probably not...and I doubt Gonzaga will win it all or even

get to the Final Four, but with all these teams faltering and the losses piling up, you have to give it to Gonzaga on their record right now.

[trumad]

13. But their record is gamed by cupcakes

But again... No matter... It means nothing until the madness begins

[El Supremo]

14. The Zags have beaten five Big 12 teams.

Including K-State and Okie-State.

I think they'd do well in the ACC.

[trumad]

15. None in the top 15

[El Supremo]

16. Those two I mentioned are. n/m

[El Supremo]

12. Hell. They lost to Florida Gulf Coast! n/m

[JonLP24]

17. They are 2-0 against RPI top 25, 5-2 top 50

Wins against Oklahoma*, Kansas State*, @Oklahoma State, Saint Mary's, and @Saint Mary's. Losses were to Illinois & @Butler.

Also RPI 50-100 features some quality teams and they have wins against Davidson*, Baylor, @Santa Clara, BYU, and @BYU. No losses.

Not true as to only comp.

[Condem]

18. Let's see....

Illinois beat the hell out of Gonzaga in Spokane. Iowa beat Illinois handily, tonight. What's that all mean?

[El Supremo]

19. Iowa won a game?

In what? Tiddlywinks?

[Condem]

20. Baseball...

...we're headed to Omaha in June!

[madinmaryland]

21. #14 just shut down #2 decisively on the road, douchebag.
