Pretty simple to me, really. Latest bracketology, which is based purely on metrics without any bias (or at least as little bias as is humanly possible), has us as an 8 seed. That’s a ranking of anywhere from 29 to 32. Sounds like the AP poll having us at 30 has it about right.
After 12-52 the last two years, with more than half of those 52 not even being competitive, the name “Louisville” doesn’t give ANY poll voters a reason to rank us highly based on reputation. Call that bias if you want. We’ve got to earn all of that back, one game at a time.
The exciting news for all of us is that we’re on a 7 game winning streak currently, so we’re very much trending in the right direction, and we should begin to be ranked very soon, as long as we keep winning.
