Comments on: Rankings Update http://www.spartansweblog.com/2009/01/12/rankings-update/ A statistical look at Michigan State basketball, with a dash of football talk Tue, 21 Apr 2009 19:34:59 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Mark in DC http://www.spartansweblog.com/2009/01/12/rankings-update/comment-page-1/#comment-13525 Mark in DC Wed, 14 Jan 2009 02:56:00 +0000 http://www.spartansweblog.com/?p=589#comment-13525 I was joking about UNC being a bad loss, and I'm sure they'll be right there at the end of the ACC season, but the hiccups are surprising considering people were wondering who could possibly beat them this season not long ago.

Their recent losses aren't too alarming... Wake is an amazing team and the BC game was an anomaly. They are and will be the hands-down favorite to win the tourney. The Oklahoma State win didn't appear to be a quality win early on, but is starting to look more and more like it is. What are the chances that Penn St. goes to the line even half as much as last year's contest at State College (51 FTAs)? Will Hightower be parading around, looking for the nearest BTN camera?

Suddenly they're at the bottom of the ACC standings. Granted, it's early, but they clearly have some issues to work out all of a sudden.
