       How are Albany at #20 and Bryant at #25 and Stony Brook not in
       top 25?

       I believe that is the CIT poll which Will Brown is a voter.
       Albany has ponied up big cash to play in the CIT - I dont put
       much stock in the poll at all.  If we can go a week without
       losing we are poised to jump into most of the mid-major polls.

       Since Non-conference is now over, these numbers might be
       interesting to look back on, as I'd imagine that all will drop
       after conference play starts.  I look at the same rankings; I'll
       list in my order:
       RealTime RPI (AE conference rank is #24)/Sagarin/Ken Pom
       SBU - 91/78/95
       UA   - 108/147/183
       BU   - 191/103/105
       UVM - 178/194/188
       UH   - 174/214/223
       UM   - 259/288/287
       UNH - 289/242/253
       Bing - 339/341/344
       UMBC- 342/321/320

       Right now, I think you are the slight favorite in the league.
       This is pretty interesting also:

       It is good to those those types of numbers. I feel we can put
       away UNH  this Saturday if we bring our A game.

       KenPom has SBU rated ahead of some pretty heavy hitters in
       college hoops-- Villanova, St. John's, George Mason, Xavier,
       DePaul....  Let's hope they play up to their billing!

       Im getting a bit ticked that we are getting no love in any of
       the mid major polls.  Albany was ranked in the CIT poll until
       Vermont waxed em.  We should be ranked in some top 25's
       somewhere.  Think im gonna start sending out some emails to
       these polls.

       Must be the abysmal loss to Sacred Heart....tough to overlook
       for some.

       Seawolves Ranking now:
       RPI (CBS): 103 ↓
       Sagarin: 74 ↑
       Pomeroy: 82 ↑
       Pomeroy ranking looking real good. Again, we have to win AE
       tournament and go to the dance.. that should be the only goal.
       Not another NIT!

       This shows that RPI is not a very good rating system. SBU wins
       convincingly by 25 points and gets downgraded. Yeah, it was over
       Bingo, but it was still a dominant win over a DI program.
       Sagarin and Kenpom ratings went up, as they should have.

       agree.. RPI is a useful tool, but not the best rating system.
       Sagarin and Pomeroy are better indicator, despite their flaws
       such as not accounting for injured star players, or when a
       blowout turn into a 5 or 8 point win only because coach sits all
       the starters for last 10min.
