I still don't understand how Ohio State keeps getting ranked above us, they have more losses and we beat them!

determine a team's seeding or anything, but that's absolutely ridiculous. I get being knocked down a couple pegs because UVA blew us out, but that was a perfect storm of bad circumstances. This team is a really good team and still undefeated at home. I'm not saying we should be top 10 necessarily (although a valid argument can certainly be made for that), but we should be no worse than 14th and probably closer to 11th or 12th.

knowing wins/losses - how they've unfolded.
It seems there's a sizeable difference once you get to 12[>100] so there's more at play?
The Fighting Brownlee's are having a great year and of course the early recognition would be nice, but not yet "necessary"... just win baby.

one would think with the possibility of a 3 seed, which seems to be the conventional wisdom, the tigers should be ranked no worse than 12th.

Does the committee "care" about the AP as much as I do?

Committee members have a wide-range of observation, consultation and data resources available to them throughout the season and during selection week. These resources provide the foundation for a thorough and educated process that is reinforced by the committee member’s discussion and deliberation. Among the resources available to the committee are an extensive season-long evaluation of teams through watching games, conference monitoring calls and NABC regional advisory rankings; complete box scores and results, head-to-head results, results versus common opponents, imbalanced conference schedules and results, overall and non-conference strength of schedule, the quality of wins and losses, road record, player and coach availability and various computer metrics. Each of the 10 committee members uses these various resources to form their own opinions, resulting in the committee’s consensus position on teams’ selection and seeding.

They are 3 spots ahead of us in the KenPom ratings as well.

That lends a little support to the AP putting them above us.
