Subject: robbed?

If you think FF was robbed, how about St. Joseph's (PA)? They stand 11-1 and how is it they aren't listed as a mid-major, given the other teams on that list??

Agreed! I think St. Joseph's is the most underated team in the country and may have the best backcourt in the country. Jameer Nelson is the real deal.

St. Joe's in the A-10 which is a considered a major conference. Therefore, they are not eligible for mid-major polls.

They did come in 31st in the voting for the ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll this week, though.

ridiculous - these polls are all about PR, connections, and reputation more than performance

if this St. Joe's team (with the record against the same schedule) had "INDIANA" or "ARIZONA" or "NORTH CAROLINA" stitched across its jerseys they would be a top-10 team.

Probably because they haven't played anyone anywhere near the top 20. The loss to U of Pacific probably didn't help either. That being said, I suspect that they deserve to at least be in the top 25.
