#17 in both polls

Seems right. I thoight we played pretty well Saturday. Limited turnovers, no long scoring drought, almost 5 double digit scoring. Team effort.

Agree with this. I thought this is about where we should have been before the season until we could prove we can have an inside game and the depth that we did last year.

X stays at 17 in both AP and USA Today Coaches Poll.
Nova is 1, Creighton is 9 and Butler is 13.
As Coach Mack said in his post-game press conference, Wake is an improved team under Danny Manning.
Wake is the 3rd highest ranked team (53rd as of 112-19) per KenPom rankings that X has played this year - Baylor being the best followed by Clemson. Just ahead of GTown and a few spots behind Providence.
