That game was in Birmingham so pretty much a home game for Bama

We’re actually further ahead of UCONN at this point than they were leading us going into today

#3 at worst. #2 at best, unless Purdue loses tonight.

Assuming no more upsets. 3rd behind UConn and Purdue.

We have better metrics, more Q1 wins, and less losses than Bama

If Purdue and UConn win, Coogs are a lock for No. 3. They will get some 1st place votes back, though.

I hope we aren’t ranked #1 again, until the end of the season.

True, but it gives you a ton of free publicity and recruiting fodder

Also the tournament seeding. Last thing you want is to be paired with a strong #1_seed before Houston.

Rankings really do matter… Especially how UH may not play another ranked team to move up significantly.

UH’s margin of error is thin considering that our conference is look at as weak.

Can’t afford too many losses in conference if UH wants to battle for a #1_seed.
