Cards 17th in coaches poll

Question

how far can the Cards climb till the Cuse finale ?

UC and USF will NOT be pushovers.

USF is in the first four out, so they have
a lot to play for.

It's neat to be in the poll. I personally tend to think of it in terms of seeding more than polls, and sometimes the seeding does not equal what the polls say.

But to stick to your topic, if the Cards can win @ Cincy and then take care of what they need to take care of at home, we could end up playing Syracuse for a Top 10 final ranking at stake for us heading into the post season.

you are right that they are not pushovers, however we will win both games. I believe we'll finish 24-7, 12-6 with the 5 seed in the BET. I don't know where that gets us in the polls but probably top 15 or so. Doesn't really matter though...we were #4 in the polls on selection sunday in 2005 and got a 4 seed.

Answer 3

looking for the CArds to get a # 3 seed.

it seems 4 or 5 is inevitable, unless
they tank any of the last 4 games.

then, instead of a 6th seed, which would be great,
the Cards would be served with a 8/9 seed.

want to avoid playing the number 1 seed as long as possible.

The Cards win the last four and finish about 10 or the 11th.

Answer 5

I think the team and coaching staff have done a tremendous job getting us playing our best ball in the recent stretch. Ricks teams always start to turn it on around this time.
The good news is we all can see that we aren't even close to our ceiling yet but still have enough time to get there.
