Does Arkansas beating Texas A&M on the road hurt us?

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

I would think so, but I thought I would ask you guys though better than I do.

Why would it hurt us? We beat Ark and haven’t played TxAM. Ark net will move up which will in turn cause our net to be better

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

Well, every win and loss is exciting right now, like crazy... so I just wondered.

It also helps us because A&M is a fellow bubble team. Their losing and falling back helps us move ahead. Also, I hate watching them play. They play such an ugly style of basketball that I hope they lose every game.

I think it makes it all that much more important to beat Aggy now, for sure.

#1 UConn loses to #15 Creighton 85 - 66

 

[MSUDC11-2.0]

Our NET dropped three spots overnight but don’t think it had anything to do with Arkansas winning. More about teams around in the rankings winning big yesterday.

TAMU lost to Arkansas at home and only dropped 4 spots. We didn't play and dropped 3 spots. That doesn't add up.

Net rankings move on a lot different things. Dont get caught up in it too much daily. I like to check it week to week.

We are in a good place both net and rpi wise. Have to keep winning to stay there.

Can’t view it in a vacuum. It’s affected by every game in the country that gets played on a given day.

Couple of big jumps:
Boise State jumped 8 spots, but they didn't have a huge win. They beat an 8-18 SJSU, so I'm going to assume this is a case where somebody they beat previously had a big win.
Wake Forest jumped 14 spots and also didn't have a huge win. They beat a decent but unremarkable 17-9 Pitt team, so I'm not sure.

It's all crazy.

Margin of victory in both of those wins was significant, I’m sure it played a role.

Our game in College Station against the Cult should a real beauty.

#1 UConn loses to #15 Creighton 85 - 66

Creighton is a team with enough pieces to win it all. That was surprising though to beat UCONN like that.
