Don't be silly. Way too early to tell. However, consider this:
The AP poll has been operational since 1949. Over that long period, only five SU teams have been ranked No. 1 They are:
1. 1989-90: Ranked No. 1 for six weeks in a row. Unranked 0 weeks.
2. 2011-12: Ranked No. 1 for at least 2 weeks in a row. Unranked 0 weeks - so far.
3. 1987-88: Ranked No. 1 pre-season. Unranked 0 weeks
4. 2009-10: Ranked No. 1 for one week. Unranked 2 weeks.
5. 2002-03: Ranked No. 1 post-season. Highest ranking reg. season #11. Unranked 10 weeks.
The 1989-90 team also had the best season record in the polls, never falling lower than #11.
Second best season record was the 1990-91 team. Highest ranking #3. Lowest #8.
The 2011-12 team is blazing quite a trail. Let's see if holds.
For your convenience:
1987-88 Douglas, Coleman, Seikaly, Thompson, Roe, Duncan. Bower
1989-90 Owens, Coleman, Thompson, Edwards, Ellis, Johnson. Manning
1990-91 Owens, Johnson, Autrey, Ellis, Edwards, McRae, Hopkins
2002-03 Anthony, McNamara, Warrick, Duany, McNeil, Forth, Edelin, Pace
2009-10 Johnson, Rautins, Joseph, Jackson, Jardine, Triche, Onuaku
