Tyson Carter named player of the week in the SEC. Well deserved!
MSU also got 11 votes in the AP Poll. People on the outside are starting to notice what Howland and the boys are doing.
Get thru the OOC undefeated or with 1 loss, and we could be close to being ranked.
If we beat cincy, we will be ranked. People will take notice of a 9-0 team who took down #11 at a neutral site.Quote:

It can happen, and it will. Go Howland #hailstate
Cincy is only #100 in RPI. Its a great win for ap ranking but it might not for RPI
If we don?t clean up th turnovers soon, we won?t be beating any teams with more than a Pulse. The effort and sloppiness last night was difficult to stomach.
Cincy is also no longer #11. They lost to Xavier which tumbled them to 17 I think.Quote:

That's awesome! Gonna be a test to get through unscathed. Might just do it though.Quote:

They'll have a much better RPI later on, so even if it doesn't appear to help our RPI the day we play them, it will wind up being a help when it's all over. (Unless they totally crash and burn.)Quote:
