yesterday, at home no less, to a good Michigan State team, 82-68. Which means Mizzou will jump them in the poll that comes out Monday, and rise to #11. I don't see the top 10 teams changing though, but there will be some shuffling around, with #2 Notre Dame, #6 Tennessee, and #7 Texas all losing this week. None of them will fall out of the top 10 though. I think even if #6 Tennessee loses again on the road Sunday, this time to #9 South Carolina, I still see them staying there.
What might get interesting though is if UT upsets South Carolina on Sunday (I don't think they will, but they have a decent shot, especially if Wilson is still gimpy from the ankle injury she suffered last night). If that happens, SC will have 3 losses and we will have 2, plus a head to head win. You wonder if that would be enough to at least temporarily jump them and actually get to #10.
