| Kentucky is interesting. 27th in the coaches poll, no votes at all in the AP. That's an odd disparity.

It's the difference between seeing the 5-0 record and seeing wins against IUPUI, Stetson, Hofstra, Indiana State and Florida International.

Are you going to game against the Lobos tonight (I'm guessing caune and other Brigade members will be there)? I think this should be a good game. Obviously, UNM played great in their game last week against my Gophers and ASU is off to a solid start. I wish it was on TV.

That would have been my guess; I don't see Grentz. Here are the voters:
