After our victory over Marshall and close loss to Louisville we are now #14 in ESPN's Mid-Major Top 15.  I know its arbitrary but still its nice to see.  Our win over Marshall even got a mention in the ESPN Weekly Watch.  Need to beat Oakland to keep this goodwill up.

Maybe it's because the Cats are not only 5-1, but their RPI sits at 23 as calculated by CBS and 24 by Rivals.com.  Some of the upcoming games can really help the RPI:  Oakland (83 by CBS); Portland (120); Wright State (177); Northern Iowa (4); and Robert Morris (108).  Wins in these games could be HUGE in March, not only for getting into the NCAA, but also for seeding.
