Poll Position

Here's a fun thread to track us and others in the weekly poll standings.
As of today, we are 7th in both polls, with a #1 vote in the coaches poll. The next team with a number one vote is #2 Michigan State...so that's interesting. I wonder who it is. (I doubt K)

The holes fell to 12th and 11th. HA!

Syracuse at #10 in the AP got a number one vote there too, that's even further apart than Duke's #7 and 1 in the coaches.

I want to be on that board!

I wouldn't be surprised at all if we had Amaker's vote though.

We moved to 6 and 5 in the polls, still with one #1 vote in the Coaches. unc somehow moved up a spot even they barely beat nobody worth mentioning.

What would you expect? They move DOWN?! Psh. People like to imagine they are a great team.

That's ok about UNC-CH. Just means the loss(es) this week will be that much sweeter....
And they were 1-1 vs the wolfpack this weekend

7th in both polls this week. UNC-CH is 10th in both. Zags fall to 25/24

So even though they lost (granted to a higher ranked team), UNC managed to move UP a notch in the AP, and stayed the same in Coaches. Gawd how I hate the holes.

Of course you know, they are very easy to hate.

7th in both polls this week.

UNC-CH managed to gain another spot and is now 9th in both polls...

They had the Mountaineers by the danglies IN Morgantown, but lost by 1. Shit. I was hoping we'd move up in the polls.

CameronBornAndBred · Post by **CameronBornAndBred** » January 3rd, 2010, 12:34 pm

Both 5 (syracuse) and 6(west virginia) lost yesterday, so I woud assume with another strong performance and win tonight, Duke will move to 5.

"Duke will move to 5," I would think likely and maybe pick up some more 1st place votes. This is a very good team and deserves to be top five, IMO. Maybe next time I make it to Derm you can join our tailgate, I'll have to see which other celebs I can line up;)
Maybe, The Donald!!

He's already visited Cameron once and was a dud. He couldn't seem to figure out why he wasn't the center of attention.......

Perhaps I'll be able to join you next time!

Until either Kansas, Kentucky and Texas lose, or all have really bad games in the same week, it would surprise me to see us with a #1. I think we are playing well enough that some voter might be thinking about it...but I don't think it happens this week. It would be nice if I'm wrong.

Duke moves to 5th in both polls. unc stayed put at #9.

I have a feeling they might drop a few places now.
