Not ranked in AP (or Coaches) yet

Not sure how the coaches are selected to be voters in the coaches poll, but the only MAC coach is Guavera from CMU...that can't help either.

Maybe she thinks our players wear too much make-up

My understanding is that each conference gets one coach on the panel for the coaches poll, and the coaches rotate every year, or every few years. In 2007 Curt Miller was the MAC representative for the coaches poll, and I believe Maria Fantanarosa of Miami was on the panel last year. Next year, somebody else will be voting more than likely.

As an update, nobody in the 15-25 range has lost so far this week. Bad news for us.

Edit: I was incorrect. #16 Kansas State lost at home to unranked Missouri last night. That will knock them down a few spots, but not enough.
