Heck, I thought RU would be dropped fron top 25, this is good news and you're right about the respect ( including mine)
If you check out our RPI, it is still relatively strong at 19. http://realtimerpi.com/rpi_Women.html

Wins against Ohio St this weekand the other teams we should beat will go a long way to helping our seeding. As I wrote in a different thread, we still have an excellent shot at a top 4 finish in the B1G getting us a double bye.

23 - only dropped 3 spots after loss to Maryland. Looks like the poll voters have more respect for RU than many people on this site.

Nice. No, I had a feeling we would stay in the top 25 because a few schools above us and behind us lost over the weekend. Still, this OSU game coming up is IMO, a MUST win. We need to get back on track and shake out the cob webs, because I really think losing Jenkins to suspension has hurt this team both mentally and physically and it's up to C Viv. to get their games back together and that inlcudes the whole lineup but especially CC and Stasha. We need them to be firing on all cylinders. Arella, is doing her thing and she appears to be okay again. We need her to step up and be the second leading scorer she is.

The rest of the team and especially Broughton and Noga need to start hitting threes consistently, as well as Charise Wilson. Yesterday, all of them were so off is was confounding.

Question, I must be seeing something wrong. Stanford got beaten up 88- 48 by Oregon, and yet they move up in the poll 1 place?

Stanford beat Oregon State before getting stomped by Oregon. They both beat and got beat by a higher-ranked team.

if RU goes 19-10, its projected rpi would be 33..that would be good enough most likely....beat Wisconsin and Minnesota.
