Massey College Basketball Rankings

[darell1976]

Since basketball season starts tonight for a lot of teams I thought it would be fun to see where everyone ranks against the big boys of basketball.

Dakota 4:

South Dakota State 84
North Dakota State 176
North Dakota 281
South Dakota 292

I choose Massey as one source...there are others and feel free to post them. I don't take too much stock in these polls since playoffs for most of us will be determined by who wins the conference tournament. As this is UND's first year in the BSC. Excitement for UND basketball has grown a lot and cannot wait for the season to start tonight at Kansas State.

Kentucky #1, Grambling #347. Quite a range between those teams. Pretty interesting.

Indiana is ranked #1 in the polls (who open with NDSU) thats why I don't put too much stock in rankings, but its fun to look and see how far your team is. I think UND being where they are is due to being in the Great West last season. Back to back GWC Champs means nothing to Massey since our SOS was extremely poor (except playing Kansas, SDSU, Montana and NDSU). This year UND plays UM twice, K-State, NDSU, SDSU, and Weber state twice. Our SOS should increase and help our ranking quite a bit, of course that thing called winning helps too. LOL!

NDSU will get under 100 this year, probably wont hold it though.

You should look at our ranking after the 12th, probably will be in the top 30 lol.

How do think they will fare against Indiana or should I say #1 Indiana? If they beat the Hoosiers sign them up for the Big 10. Saul is a good guy (goes to my church, and he was my son's t-ball coach). I wish him well this year except of course December 9th.

Depends, if we are shooting lights out and indiana has a bad night shooting the ball... maybe we could win.

If we can stay within 9 points until the last couple minutes I would be pretty happy.

We probably would have a better chance against the Pacers team I watched in the fargodome a month ago.

Massey predicts 83-64 a 6% chance. So you have a shot.

Lehigh at 95? With four starters back from last year, I find that surprising.

What happened tonight? Box score suggests an *** beating.

Sorry darrel, you guys held in there (kind of) for a half.

First half: Played good only trailed by 9 at the half
Second Half: Players forgot there are two halves in college basketball

What is Baylor ranked? I don't think anyone was picking Lehigh to win at Baylor.
