Goff Rankings
Sometimes it is that simple.
You know how we roll. If Team A is ranked below Team B and beats Team B, we don't automatically put Team A in Team B's spot. Even if Team B is ranked #1. There are always other factors involved.
Well as we said would happen, the rankings got a shakeup as major conference finals were held.
Some of the things we learned as a result:
Georgetown is indeed very good. The Hoyas beating a strong Villanova team by 46 is a serious result.
It was a bit of a tough week for making these rankings because we do have some teams we'd like to move into the Top 50, but those ranked in the lower reaches actually did pretty well.
So Nazareth, West Chester, and Salisbury all have to wait. But just so you know ... we're thinking of you the whole time.
The playoffs are coming.
When the playoffs are here we will see some significant movement. Don't expect the rankings to be perfect. No, not at all. To be honest, while we are pretty sure of the top three, even they could, of course, lose at some point. And we are pretty sure that teams #4 through #11 could all be mixed up and we wouldn't argue.
This ranking is full of good teams.
Sometimes in some divisions, especially when we are ranking only teams that are playing right now (as we are with this fall-only group), we have to really look carefully for rankable teams.
But this group is more about having to find teams to keep out. And we’re moving good programs down, even, sometimes, when they win.
