It's too bad that each year AFA struggles so much. We play a MWC team and get the return of playing a MEAC team.

And SMU wins comfortably @ Maples.
Quick aside to thank Nik, Goose, and friends for the updates here! This thread continues to be my favorite on AB.
Dammit. Now I'll feel guilty when I forget to update it for a few days.
Seriously, though, thank you. It makes a difference to know people are paying attention to threads like this and enjoying them, because they're a lot of work.

Penn State is not looking good. They were weak before today scraping by cupcakes and now losing by 26 to Duquesne?
Miami was great a few years ago. Might be seeing the cycle of the recruits off that. They've looked great to start the year.
Utah is definitely falling back. Still a good team, but they lost Delon Wright. That's like when CU lost Spencer.

At minimum, Miami is a Dance side that is fringe top 25.

It's only a gambling problem if you don't win.
+1 on this. Was thinking the same thing. Thanks a ton! Great stuff.

Utah needs that win over a Temple side thought to be just 6th in the AAC. They've still got Duke and a visit to Wichita State OOC. Good for RPI but yikes.
St. Mary's isn't what they were a few years ago, but that game on the road looks like potential trouble for Stanford.

So much stress this time of year making sure our conference peers and OOC opponents don't have any bad losses. I think the PAC will be solid this season, some of our OOC opponents will be 300+ but that's ok. Just win and that takes pressure off having any blemishes come selection Sunday.
Portland was impressive tonight. Abilene Christian came in 2-0 and Portland blitzed them 48-15 in the 1st half on the way to a 87-57 win. Could be a team that does a little bit this season in a very top-heavy WCC.
Stanford hung for a while with St. Mary's and then got dusted by 17. Doesn't look like they're playing much defense.

As you say, it's going to be tough for Portland in conference play with the Zags, BYU, St. Mary's and even Pepperdine solid. Still, they're no slouches and should have a decent RPI from it all and pick up some quality home wins as they push for 4th. Definitely not a cupcake. Good scheduling.
That looks like junk to me. Kenpom has us at 61 and little brother at 101; I'm much more willing to believe that at this point in the season: http://kenpom.com/
