Top 50
The Collegehoops.net Top 50 Power Ranking is your weekly window into the national college basketball scene. Is the Top 50 Better than the AP or the Coaches Polls? At the very least, the Top 50 has no agenda like the coaches and we go deeper into the country than most power-conference biased media members. The CHN Top 50 is brought to you before everybody else late Sunday night! (New: Check out the weekly Non-BCS Top 25 Ranking.)

How is William & Mary in the top 50 yet Washington State who is 6-0 including a 35 point blowout against San Diego not in the top 50?

when your 2nd best win is against winless IPFW, that's not saying much about your strength of schedule. With Gonzaga and K-State coming up, you guys will have 2 chances to prove your legit.
Agree with WSU claim above

I agree that Wazzu should be rated in the Top-50. They are a perfect 6-0, boast the nation's leading scorer, and the starting lineup is composed of 18 and 19 year-old who will only get better. The fact that ASU is rated above them is pretty ridiculous. WSU is the second best team in the PAC behind UW.
I think we went through the

I think we went through the exact same thing last year about wsu early in the year.. they blew someone out and y'all got real excited, and got mad about asu.. http://www.collegehoopsnet.com/chn-top-50-ranking-week-one-149467
UNLV

How do you have UNLV at 40. They have beaten three quality oppenents in Nevada, SIU, and Louisville. How do you have BYU ahead of them at 26? Have you seen their schedule. There best game has been Bradley. Pretty soft schedule. I am not that impressed with BYU they have not done anything to deserve a ranking even close to that.

BYU is 29 woops missed that but still don't deserve to be ahead of UNLV.
I understand that WSU did

I understand that WSU did the same thing last year, but honestly if you place UW top 15 and only won by 4 points against Montana in a game that they very easily could have (and should have) lost, i think WSU should crack top 50 looking at those facts and comparing PAC 10 schools
Oh tough loss to Utah State

Oh tough loss to Utah State really. BYU definetly deserves to be at 29 what a joke. GO Rebs tough victory in Tuscon.
