With next week's big matchup with Nova, if (not a big "if", but a larger than your average "if") SU wins, is there any way they don't get the #1 ranking?

I'm really worried about this nova game. It honestly doesn't mean much, but I want to win badly.

NOT MUCH? It makes us undefeated in the Big East this year!I'm really worried about this nova game. It honestly doesn't mean much, but I want to win badly.
We could beat Louisville, Ohio State, and The Heat in consecutive days and not be number one unless Arizona loses.
But that would put us in the drivers seat in the Eastern Conference.

We might get a few more #1 votes, but we won't leapfrog an unbeaten Arizona team.

Yeah, for as long as both SU and Arizona manage to stay unbeaten, AZ's schedule is strong enough to stay #1. #20 Colorado twice, #13 Oregon twice, UCLA (#22 in AP). Not great, but enough.

I'd rather win well than badly, but I guess a win is a win.I'm really worried about this nova game. It honestly doesn't mean much, but I want to win badly.
zeekay said:This game is pretty much for a #1 seed in the east at this point. We gotta deliver.
But Nova always KILLS us. Wright knows how to coach against the zone like no on else and this year he has a lot of talent. Ugh.
Yes it does mean a lot. I hate these arguments where December games dont mean anything. EVERY game is important. This game has seeding/pod position written all over it.
If you ain't out of control you ain't in control.I am very worried about Nova, especially since I won't be there to cheer them on and I have an uneasy feeling that watching it in front of my extended family will cause bad mojo for my team. They'll be all, "Peggy, come play Screw Your Neighbor! Why do you want to watch a game when they're losing?" and "Peggy, we're all going for a family swim. Forget about that stupid game!" My only hope is that the Louisville Cousins will be steadfast in my corner, since their game is right after.
Damn. I hate being out of control!
I stared a long time at that quote and tried to discern its meaning. I believe the implication is that we are never in control, which I partially agree with!If you ain't out of control you ain't in control.
I spent way to long looking this quote up so I would have it right.
I just watched all the Fast & Furious movies and for some reason that quote stuck in my head and I thought it was too good of an opportunity to pass up using it.I stared a long time at that quote and tried to discern its meaning.
