Once again no respect do to the loss... the latest win helped a bit but Rutgers needs to step it up.

 

[RUChoppin]

A lot of uncertainty at the bottom of the poll right now. Win the next two, and we'll be in.

Coaches Poll has us at #29.

Still at #28 this week. Jumped over by Iowa and Az St, who both moved into the Top 25 instead of us

I hope the team doesn't care but continues to win. It would be nice to beat Indiana in their place.

Its actually surprising we didnt get in this week

We don’t play at Indiana this year, I think.

 

[Rutgers36]

We are in first in the Big Ten. How can we not be ranked in the top 25?

Maybe in the B1G Tournament Final in Indianapolis!

Northwestern also tied with us for first and they are not in either (NW just above us in votes received)

Not a surprise to many...the media has always slighted the women’s program ... we have been labeled thuggish by a number of reporters who do the voting... the voting club loves the midwest and southern teams... north and eastern clubs are looked upon as not as strong and sometimes in the shadow of Geno’s UConn ladies... C Viv has despite her record been looked upon as a good coach but always behind the UConn , Stanford, Notre Dame , Duke and Tennessee coaches of lore. ... what troubles me is we may win 22 - 23 games pre B1G tourney not win 2 at least and may be looking at once again a **** seed ... gotta keep winning.

Iowa jumped us because they defeated IU, which is ranked. ASU jumped us because they knocked off the #2 and #3 teams over the weekend. The U of A remained in the Top 25 despite losing at home to those same two teams.

RU continues to win but hasn't defeated a Top 25 yet. Had we knocked off IU at home, we would have been in the Top 25 last week. If RU keeps winning, some of the teams just above us are bound to lose at some point and create a spot for us.

It does not bother me t

 

[wngarbarini]

Hat we are not ranked. Just want to be in top 8 at end of the year. Then we can celebrate!

 

[BeKnighted_rivals]

Tough to argue with ASU moving into the top 25 after the weekend the Sun Devils had.

 

[RUgrad]

The real question for me is what is Maryland doing in the Top 25. I can't complain about ASU and Iowa, they deserved it too.
