How They Fared (So Far)

Results for the past week, and upcoming games for the next two weeks. There are still a few more games on the schedule for tonight, but because the next vote is (I assume) still two weeks away, I won't bother updating.

[Rofrog]

And Bowdoin is in the top 4 while Scranton is in 9th.Like I said this is the same Massey that said Tufts would beat Scranton by 12 how did that turn out.So like I say games are played on the court not from Masseys aspect or the d3hoops top 25!!!

[scottiedawg]

And Bowdoin is in the top 4 while Scranton is in 9th.

Yes, in D3Hoops.com rankings those teams are 1, 2, 3, 4. In Massey ratings they are 2, 9, 4, 1.  Seems weird to me that among those 4 undefeated teams, the one ranked lowest by D3Hoops.com has played by far the strongest schedule.

Like I said this is the same Massey that said Tufts would beat Scranton by 12 how did that turn out.So like I say games are played on the court not from Masseys aspect or the d3hoops top 25!!!

I'm confused and not sure what your point is. Tufts and Scranton have not played this year.

Of course the games are played on the court. Rankings are attempting to reflect what happened on the court.

[Jester1390]

Ro.  Sorry have to agree with the others.  You can't just say because a score didn't end up as predicted. It's just a indicator.   Even though the system to get a point spread is different it's still a indicator of what Vegas thinks will happen.

[Dave 'd-mac' McHugh]

The break for the holidays always has plenty of games to enjoy. It also has it's handful of results that make one scratch their head or an upset to enjoy. This holiday "season" saw plenty of all of that. Top 25 teams were not safe. Nearly all seemed to lose. There were results every day that made Division III coaches, fans, and many others take note.

Sunday night Hoopsville returns to the air from the holidays with plenty to talk about, but not enough time. We chat with teams that impressed, got a big win, continue to stay unscathed, and may end up in the new Top 25 polls. We also try and read the Top 25 tea leaves to figure out how voters may fill out their ballots on Monday (hint: it might be anyone's guess).

While we try and cover all Division III basketball news, now that we have entered January we split up the regions to cover as many teams as possible each week. Sundays the regions are Atlantic, Central, Northeast, and South.

Hoopsville is presented by D3hoops.com and airs from the WBCA/NABC Studio. You can watch Sunday's show LIVE in the following ways:
- Main page: www.d3hoops.com/hoopsville

Pat and Gordon,

I see the new top 25 is out.

https://d3hoops.com/top25/women/2019-20/week5

How many points did Albright receive? I don't see any points for them.

[Dave 'd-mac' McHugh]

It's been fixed. The answer is 25, but that has now been added.

[scottiedawg]

D3HOOPS.COM, Top 8, hardest schedules, next 6 games:
Wartburg = 69 (average massey opponent ranking)
Amherst = 90.17
George Fox = 107.67
Tufts = 132.33
DePauw = 153.17
Hope = 177.16
Bowdoin = 184.33
Scranton = 190.17

Single hardest opponent of next 6
Wartburg = 8
Amherst = 5
George Fox = 13
Tufts = 9
DePauw = 64
Hope = 29
Bowdoin = 33
Scranton = 90

Massey Rating:
Tufts = 5
Bowdoin = 4
Hope = 1
Amherst = 9
Wartburg = 2
Scranton = 24
DePauw = 10
George Fox = 30

There's a good chance Wartburg, Amherst, and Tufts all drop a game in the next week or two, but even then they probably shouldn't drop below the top 5. They likely will though.
Good chance George Fox loses a game soon. Tough slate upcoming.
Scranton could roll off 6 easy wins. Current Massey SOS of 156 − −hard to tell what they really are.

I got another request to include William Peace in the report. Their game is currently at halftime; I have an odd schedule this afternoon, but will update later (hopefully by 6:00).

Loras and Bethel deserve to jump up the rankings.

If you are a Top 25 team, or a conference leader, every team now thinks you can be beaten. Each night in Division III basketball we are seeing top teams take losses because even the best can't avoid even an okay team knocking them off.

Sunday on Hoopsville, we continue to talk about what seems like nightly upsets in DIII. Whether it's undefeateds who are no more or unexpected squads rising to the top of conference races. There just isn't any "normal" nights in the game anymore.

Hoopsville is presented by D3hoops.com and airs from the WBCA/NABC Studio. You can watch Sunday's show LIVE in the following ways:

Loras and Bethel deserve to jump up the rankings.

They will. They did in my poll, at least.
