in league play and one more in the Braggin Rights game. 14 quad one games is more than enough to carve out a convincing tournament resume.

For comparison, Michigan has 12 quad one games in league play, but they also also play two more league games in the B1G than they do in the SEC.

Strength of schedule won't hurt us at all in the long run.

I honestly wish that the AP poll would just die and go away. - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 13:36:33
     I honestly don’t know why y’all bother - BlackSheep MU - 12/10 17:51:15
     So many ranked Football teams are due to "feel good stories" - Tigerfish MU - 12/10 15:12:38
          Exactly (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 15:24:08
     They only saw the ku loss and have no idea - Harvey Specter MU - 12/10 14:56:04
     Us not being ranked implies that ku sucks which I agree with - McMuffin MU - 12/10 14:07:36
          This is the weakest ku roster in a long ass time. - alwaysright MU - 12/10 15:58:37
          you can't be serious (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 14:11:49
     Polls this time of year don't matter - 60 + schools make - alstl MU - 12/10 14:00:02
          Yes, I acknowledged that. AP poll doesn't matter anytime of - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:03:49
               The great thing about college basketball - the tournament - alstl MU - 12/10 20:14:46
     Michigan State has played a respectable non-con schedule. (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 13:54:52
          There sue goes. By 12/22 MU will have played 3 Top 25 teams - Macgrantt MU - 12/10 14:04:18
               what does that have to do with today's ranking? (nm) - 90Tiger STL - 12/10 14:19:06
               but on 12/10 (today), MU has only played 1 (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 14:05:09
                    2, have been/are, it's a fluid standard, pretty meaningless - Macgrantt MU - 12/10 14:07:28
                    How many has michigan state played? (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:06:50
                         twice as many (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 14:09:44
                              They've played one ranked team and lost (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:13:39
                                   no, UNC was ranked when they played (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 14:14:50
                                        Ranked when they played doesn't mean they were good - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:17:33
                                             True, but they *were* ranked, and they *are* a major brand (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 14:28:40
                                        ...and UNC is a "name" opponent, regardless of their - zounami MU - 12/10 14:15:25
                                             Also, MSU wasn't ranked at all after beating UNC. This week - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:57:50
                                   And it just happens to be the same ranked team that Missouri - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:14:11
          You certainly didn't think much of them when Memphis - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:00:56
               I still don't... Where did I ever claim they're a good team? - zounami MU - 12/10 14:01:52
                    Well, you are defending them being ranked #21 by the AP (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:07:52
                         No, I'm *explaining why* they're ranked by the AP... - zounami MU - 12/10 14:08:27
                              well, you are wrong (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:08:57
                                   so they * aren't * actually ranked 21 by the AP? If zou - 90Tiger STL - 12/10 14:20:10
                                        No, I am saying for the most part the AP Poll specifically - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:23:40
                                             It's mostly name-bias, but MSU is 4-1 vs power-conference - zounami MU - 12/10 14:27:22
                                                  You are making my point for me. The fact that having Izzo - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:35:23
                                                       because we agree that the AP poll is largely inaccurate & - zounami MU - 12/10 15:01:05
                                                            I wasn't asking for reasons why AP pollsters vote the way - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 15:05:24
                                                                 If you two would stop arguing about why you agree - haeffb MU - 12/10 16:58:04
                                                                      LOL, I think we are there now. It would have been much - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/11 09:03:18
                                   I can explain it to you, I can't force you to understand it. - zounami MU - 12/10 14:10:04
                                        You aren't explaining the AP poll (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:15:50
               hahahahaha(nm) - TigerA MU - 12/10 14:01:49
                    Talk about a reading comprehension fail. (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 14:02:50
                         yeah, that's what it is(nm) - TigerA MU - 12/10 14:03:46
                              Re-read my posts. I never said MSU is a good team. (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 14:04:19
                                   no one here is saying you did. you need to - TigerA MU - 12/10 14:06:31
                                        He's claiming I contradicted myself, which isn't true. (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 14:07:57
                                             So you don't believe msu is worthy of being ranked #21? (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:20:22
                                                  right... I wouldn't rank them in the top 25 (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 14:24:39
                                                       Well, that was my point. SOS is a decent argument I guess - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:32:09
     It's because of strength of schedule - Columbian Gold MU - 12/10 13:47:49
          Kenpom is liking us despite the terrible data from last year - Harvey Specter MU - 12/10 14:56:37
          The SEC is a meatgrinder this year. 13 quad one games - HissingPrigs77 MU - 12/10 14:03:37
               This is totally accurate. - alwaysright MU - 12/10 14:26:54
          The problem with most strength of schedule calculations is - alwaysright MU - 12/10 13:58:12
               That's why it's dumb to schedule low-majors, especially - zounami MU - 12/10 13:59:34
                    It's dumb to care about bball rankings in December - Columbian Gold MU - 12/10 14:03:36
                         The OP is talking about rankings. I'm talking about NCAAT - zounami MU - 12/10 14:05:47
          Do you really believe that is why? If their name wasn't - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 13:56:22
               Yes, kenpom rankings show something similar - Columbian Gold MU - 12/10 14:01:17
                    So Baylor should be ranked ahead of michigan state? (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:18:35
                    What is ku SOS? (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:03:02
                         18 compared to our 360 (nm) - Columbian Gold MU - 12/10 14:04:29
                              What is Kentucky's ? (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:47:32
                                   no way of knowing (nm) - Columbian Gold MU - 12/10 16:14:11
                                        I'm just asking because I don't know which source you are - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 16:54:41
               it's a combo of name-bias & their strong non-con schedule (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 13:58:37
                    Arguing just to argue. When Memphis beats them you - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:02:36
                         no, I'm explaining to you why MSU is ranked & MU isn't (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 14:03:29
                              Ok, so every AP pollster compared MSU and MU's sos and - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:05:52
                                   no, pollsters don't do much research, but they do know... - zounami MU - 12/10 14:07:39
                                        Who are these several tough opponents you keep talking about - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:13:21
                                             They've already played 5 power-conference opponents... - zounami MU - 12/10 14:16:32
                                                  Why doesn't the NCAA use the AP poll for selection? (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:19:07
                                                       ask the NCAA (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 14:28:03
                                                            Don't need to. Like my original post stated, it's because - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 14:38:03
                                                                 agreed... most of them are lazy, biased hacks (nm) - zounami MU - 12/10 14:59:55
                                                                      100! (nm) - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 12/10 15:05:47
