It might not mean much but after last night's win we have moved up to # 128 in Kenpom and # 74 in Segarin. It has been ages since we were as high as a # 74.
Kenpom & Segarin
- Thread starter knights1212
- Start date
After defeating drexel we moved up to # 118 in Kenpom. Segarin moved us up to # 68 as a result of Saturday's games. This does not include the Drexel win. That should be listed in the morning. I am just glad to see us getting some respect again.
This is amazing, we are in an area where we have not been for ages. Segarin has RU at # 35 this morning after our win over Drexel. Kenpom has us at # 119 after all Sunday games were completed.
Hope I have the right link:

Don't get me wrong, I'd much rather be where we are now than where we've been lately. But these rankings are pretty meaningless this time of year.

Are you sure you’re not looking at the Unemployment Rate? Truthfully Sagarin’s has a new look ahead feature. They are expecting the Cornhuskers to de-pants Seton Hall in their next game.
Kenpom uses a lot of data from last year this early in the season
It might not mean much but as of this morning we are now # 30 in Segarin. The BIG is ranked the # 2 conference in the country behind only the ACC.
At some point kenpom turns off it's predictive feature and only looks at the raw data from this year. I think it is a sliding scale.
Bottom line finishing the year 80 or better would be great and a good internal goal for a fan. Still could mean 13 wins.
