A triple double two games in a row?  Are you serious?  Do I hear three?

So, where do we stand this season?  Sagarin is still AWOL.  Real Time
is now on board, but as I've stated in the past many times, Real Time
isn't ready from Prime Time.  At least he did update his rankings, as
Marquette is now shown as having a 4-0 record.  Kansas is stuck at 3-0,
however, because the Jayhawks' opponent was not a Division I team, and
he did not update his schedules with the Maui Invitational's second
round games, so no prediction from Real Time.  Meanwhile, Colley did
not update his ratings with the results from Monday's games, but as of
November 19, he had Marquette ranked slightly higher than Kansas, so
the ratings would predict a Marquette victory today.  I am still using
the scaling factor for ratings units to points from last season, as the
teams need to be well-connected before comparing methods, and the usual
comparison is against Sagarin, who still hasn't released any ratings for
this season.  I'm way too busy to retool my programs to work off of a
different set of ratings, but if Sagarin remains AWOL after teams become
well-connected, I'll do it.  That's around mid-December.

The prediction from Greenfield (Team Rankings) dropped from 4.5 points
last night to just 4.0 points today.

Seven Overtimes is predicting a 2 point loss for Kansas.

It won't get any easier with either Purdue or Tennessee tomorrow.

Rock Chalk!

Common Opponents
================
Officially, there are no common opponents.  However, we did lose to
Illinois by 7 in an exhibition game, while Marquette beat them by 7
in a game that counts.  That would favor Marquette by 14 points.
Yikes.

Here is Kansas' season, with predicted margins based on last season's final
Sagarin ratings.  Normally you could just add those probabilities of victory to
compute the expected number of wins, but last season's ratings aren't all that
useful, and I also have all possible opponents listed for the Maui Invitational,
which would skew the result upward by about 2 wins.  What a loaded field this year.
