I would rank the Valley as the 10th-11th best league

1. Big 12
2. ACC
3. Big East
4. SEC
5. Big 10
6. Pac 12
7. American
8. A10
9. Mountain West
10. West Coast
11. MVC.

Sagarin has it 12th. After Big East and P5 they have:
7.WCC
8.A10
9.American
10. MWC
11. MAC
12. Valley

Horizon league this guy is throwing under the bus is nearly identical, just behind MVC.

Funny he's acting like we don't know anything about hoops while trashing the Horizon League that rates out almost even with his NBA 2.0 Valley.

If ISU had UNI's record we would all be proud no matter if we played ranked teams or not right????...just sayin. Come tournament time the chips will fall where they may. Go Cyclones!

We'd also be a lock for a 1 seed, probably #2 seed overall and #1 RPI...so yeah I think we'd be happy.

I'm having this discussion with my friend right now which has turned heated on his end ALL because I said ( Oh he's a HUGE Kentucky fan) so do you think Kentucky deserves to be ranked #1 because they are undefeated against 4 ranked teams and 23 crappy ones? I went on to say...I mean I think there are 3-5 teams that could be undefeated with Kentuckys schedule right now....now he's all butt hurt. HEHEHEHE

24 pages. Wow. 24 pages. I wonder if other fan bases get all panty-bunched when they don't like rankings.

Had some Panther fan take the bait of one of my tweets questioning why they were rated so high. Dude claimed that Ben Jacobson was a better coach than Fred Hoiberg and if Ben coached our team last year, we'd have a natty title. I just stopped laughing and that was about 6 hours ago.

Yeah you know you have to admire the guys passion for his team. I think that's why sooo many Cyclone fans are butt hurt that UNI is ranked higher. Whocares if they are ranked higher, the truth will come out in the tourney. Shoot as long as they dont play us, im rooting for them.

Iowa State is now 4 games and 4 wins away from winning the Big XII title. This thread has been fun and all but we have more important things to talk about then what that high school team from Cedar Falls is up to.

End Thread.
