Remember this team come March. Veteran IVY league team with an unselfish philosophy, incredible defense, and deadly from beyond the arch. They should win the IVY league going away and should find themselves within the top 25 sooner then later. Definitely built to break someones heart in March.

After this weekend why wouldn't the Cantabs be a Top 25 team?

It would be great to see them there but you never know. Another un-ranked team who has been playing lights out and is undefeated is St. Louis. Majerus has done an incredible job with that program. Both could potentially be ranked after this week.

Cantabs had a Sagarin natioanl ranking of 15 BEFORE they beat ranked Florida State and won the open tournament over a team that beat #4 U-cons.:ThmbUp:

Big difference between November and March. Other teams will be regularly tested, Harvard will not. It will be much harder for them to improve. Never surprised to see an Ivy win a round or two but honestly can't believe it goes further than that.

Harvard up to 7th in the Sagarin rankings and St. Louis up to 8th.

Rankings mean nothing in November. Like OTMAl said, Harvard isn't going to be battle tested enough come March.

December 8th will be a very big day for the Harvard team. UCONN awaits in Storrs. Gotta think they scouting for that game is already done for both teams with the exception of Boatright for UCONN.

It will be big for Harvard. But will UConn even care? The game can't mean much to them but a chance to play against a half court team.

Harvard moves to 7-0 with 6 of their wins coming away from home.

Harvard cracks the Top 25 at #25 this week. It might be short lived after thursday against UCONN. First time an Ivy league team has been in the Top 25(after 1970) since Penn was #25 in January of 1995.
