AP Poll #5 Houston

I get not expecting an undefeated season, but don’t get expecting anyone to be us.
All season we will be the best team on the court

Agreed. That top 10 ranking will bring out the very best in every opponent for now on.

I think this is the highest ranking for a UH big three sports team since Case got us (and Sumlin) to #6 right?

We were #6 for 5 weeks in 2016 (football)

Lol! I guess that answers my question about whether it would be better for us to not play SHSU and Rice rather than play them and beat them by 30.

The best part of not playing those schools was reducing the chance of injuries. The will be quite fresh for Alabama.

I’m curious as to the last time Rutgers was ranked ahead of Duke, North Carolina and Kentucky.

There are no other AAC teams no where near the top 25. I hope our standings can hold while playing in conference.

Texas pass TT up??? How?

Tech’s best win is Abilene Christian. Their resume sucks so far. UT has at least beat North Carolina and Indiana.

As much as I hate to say it, Texas does have a better resume than TT right now. Texas has a W and L against ranked teams while TT just has an L against a ranked team and the rest of UT’s schedule has been significantly stronger than Tech’s to this point in the season. That will change (and help us) if Tech can knock off Kansas this Thursday.

#4 prior ranking in Football was after we beat Maryland 30-21 in 77 Cotton Bowl! Might be the next one to shoot for in BB?
