This is nuts but we are used to it. O'Brien's teams thrive off of this kind of disrespect. I'm kind of glad though. We are "THE SLEEPER of the NCAA this year".

We are ranked 36th ! Based on how we finished last year, this isn't to bad. But if they were informed properly, they would know that we are deep and we have one of the best bench coaches ever. There are several team who just don't deserve to be in the top 25. We should be one or two spots out at worst. #20 at best ! But I think by mid January, we crack the top 25. By march we could be about 15th and maybe get a #4 seed for the tourney.
 
Not much different than football...seems like we're always having to prove ourselves. We'll definitely make the Big Dance and could stun some folks in the first few rounds...

I rather be under ranked, than over ranked in the preseason... this might help to light a fire under the guys, and help to keep them from getting fat headed... IMO we will be back in march madness this year, and start a new streak...
