Top 25!

Post by Gunk »

We did it! Wow. Who would have thought this 6 months ago. Congrats to the Cougs. Still plenty to play for, but something we haven't seen in almost a decade.

In some rankings, we're as high as 19.

Just keep winning, Cougs.

Where would we be if Childs hadn't have been suspended? If we beat Gonzaga at least once we deserve to be in every bodies top 20.

We'd likely only have 3 losses on the season and be in the top 15.

Where would we be if Pope hadn't convinced Childs to come back.

It's a great accolade to be achieved, but it puts a target on our back. At least we're down to the last 3 games of the regular season, so we don't have to wear it long. It will be nice, if we can manage to get by Santa Clara, to have two ranked teams fighting it out this next Saturday in the MC.

Honestly, I had good hopes for this season, but I didn't see it getting as good as this.

Santa Clara at the MC, should be a win. Will be tough, but I don't see us dropping that game as long as we aren't looking ahead to Gonzaga.

Gonzaga game is just fun. No one is expecting us to win that game, but if we do, great!

The last game at Pepperdine has me real nervous. Real nervous. That has trap game written all over it. Pepperdine will put up a good fight, especially if we are still ranked.
