Time to move BYU way up....I have looking for any weakness in their game and I guess I will have to wait til the UNLV game to see how they handle true aggression and good coaching. That Jimmer Fredette is something special. He eats defenses up and stretches the court to get wide open shots for his teammates. I'll be watching.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007653226072269775.post-88567337091177529662010-12-10T01:24:03.399-08:002010-12-10T01:24:03.399-08:00The reason that teams like Arizona are up there is...The reason that teams like Arizona are up there is because this is a predictive system. The goal is not to reward teams for their performance but to predict which teams will do well going forward. One great example of this was Georgetown losing to Temple tonight. All the rewarding systems like RPI had Georgetown as one of the few best teams in the country, but my system with a 60% home court advantage for Temple gave the Owls a slightly better chance of winning. And they won, with a victory for predictive systems.Austin Linkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03587106762725880799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007653226072269775.post-44775625241801289792010-12-09T11:54:56.056-08:002010-12-09T11:54:56.056-08:00I have problems with ranking teams with poor early...I have problems with ranking teams with poor early season SOS being highly ranked, in many cases above teams that have been battle tested.<br /><br /> In mens basketball, you have Arizona ranked #5 having played powderpuffs and losing to Kansas. How in the world is AZ ranked above a K state with the same win/loss record and a much tougher SOS?<br /><br />ON Saturday BYU will expose them as a young team that will be towards the end of the season, but Az is not there yet and should not be a top 25 team yet.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
