All that is important now is seeding in the NCAA Tournament. I believe that SDSU deserves the #1 seed in the WEST but if I was a betting man I would predict you will end up with the #2 seed instead.
Keep on winning! Do not mock the curse! Do not deny the curse exists! The last thing SDSU needs is to be the first and only #1 seed to ever lose in the 1st Round of the NCAA Tournament.
It will be exciting from here on out. Seeding is the most important thing in making a serious run to the FINAL FOUR! You have the team to do it, lets hope the NCAA doesn't screw you with a #3 or #4 seed out East somewhere.

I'm good with #6 this week. I didn't expect Duke to drop below us because they have national respect. I'm glad that 'Nova didn't pass us. That would have been an insult.

Is there a link to see how the coaches voted?

It's awesome to be ranked this high however all that matters now is how we do in The Dance. As long as we stay in the top 20 and make a deep run in the tournament, I'd prefer that to us being ranked in the top 4 all season and no good run in the tourney. This is not the BCS and east coast bias can't hold us down in March! This.

This is exactly what I expected would happen. I expected us to stay at #6 in both polls. If we beat BYU and AFA, then we might move up. When you are in the top with established programs, it is hard to move up. But, it shouldn't be 'that' hard. You guys had a tough schedule last week. UNLV @ home, and UNM on the road. It's not like those two teams are a walk in the park. You are correct, Hugh--but it is what it is. By the way, I just took a close look at your avatar and info--yeah, I know it's been like that for months now, but occasionally I will miss something important--and wanted to say it's classic. A Borg named Hugh who lives in Provostan. You are too good. The Fred Noonan School of Nvigation.

BYU up to 9, St Mary's 21. Gonzaga getting close to jumping back in. UNLV and Wichita also receiving votes St. Mary's only has two losses, on the road at BYU by one point and lost at SDSU by 14.

Exactly. People who don't follow west coast basketball can say a lot of things now, but if we take down #10 BYU on the road it will silence all critics. nuh uh uh! Make that "#9 BYU". We're hot on your heals my friend. #10 is so 'yesterday'. God have mercy on the WCC......

(okay, wrong sc-fi series - but you get the idea)

Just win Aztecs. The rankings will take care of themselves. Exactly. We're in the conversation with Duke, Syracuse, Kansas, UConn, & Nova... How many national championship banners belong in that group? Just win and let the talking heads worry about rankings.
