Georgetown drops out after back to back losses, and IF the Hoosiers come thru against Michigan State.
Mr. Neutral (?) is starting to wonder where the "bubble" went.

I think we're playing Chicago Circle-you know, the school that changed its name years ago, but Wise forgot to notice.

Guess Mr Neutral (?) figures as a "Bubble" team we'll draw a high seed opponent.
How silly Mr Neutral (?) can be, promoting us against one of his fav's.

And only Wise is goofy enough to not only be 15-20 years behind the times re a school's name, but also calling a school I saw play once (when I went to watch their opponent) a "fave".
Sorry, Wise, some of us go to games other than Xavier games because it broadens our knowledge of college basketball. Of course, I know you don't want any of the knowledge-broadening stuff. Next, I'll be advocating book learnin'!

Yeah Mr Neutral (?), watching Illinois-Chicago vs Loyola-Chicago really would broaden one's college basketball knowledge. Nothing as enlightening as the Horizon League ...
Mr Neutral (?) sure is funny!

Wow this is childish...
On a real note, I think the top 10 could be possible. Stanford, Michigan St. and Georgetown could all drop out of the top ten.
Michigan St. and Georgetown should drop out, but Texas will obviously move up and IU will probably jump X since they are one behind X and they just dominated MSU.
Now that could leave XU the 10th spot. Stanford dropping out of the top 10 is the wild card. They lost to ASU but beat UA. it depends on how badly voters penalize them for their ASU loss, but when it comes down to it Xavier also lost to ASU so that may keep Stanford above X. I think a 11 ranking is almost certain, with a possibility of 10.

Where does "Chicago Circle"--is it UIC?--play its home games? Do they have an on-campus facility?

Stanford was ranked 7th in the polls then:
A 4 point loss on the road in overtime to Arizona State
A 1 point win on the road at Arizona
Stanford ends up at 9
Xavier started at 12
Xavier and ends up at 10
Georgetown and Michigan State fall out of the top 10.

UIC plays at the Pavilion, just west of downtown Chicago. It's a midsize, bland facility, and, yes, it is part of the UIC campus.
So, Wise, which other teams'/conferences' games do you see live? Any?
