Vanderbilt isn't even in the top 120 today, and I know they weren't close to the top 100 before the game. Beating a team outside the top 100 doesn't do much for the KenPom ranking unless it's an upset, in terms of ranking, or it's a complete domination type win.

No disrespect to Caleb but Myo is making a case for our most valuable player.Vanderbilt is bad and the outlook for them is not good unless they have some good players currently out of commission that will be coming back soon. Ranked 13th out of 14 SEC teams on KenPom. Lost at home to Tulsa, who currently ranks 118th on KenPom. Struggled to win at home to #305 Texas A&M Corpus-Christi and #327 Southeast Louisiana, two teams picked to finish in the bottom half of the Southland Conference.
Those of you who say Vandy is one of the worst P5's check yo self before you wreck yo self. They are middle of pack in the SEC and will most likely be a NCAA bubble team.

Especially in the first half when Vandy was playing alot better. He wasn't as bad in the second half, but that's because our Boys shut them down and he had to temper his bias.
“Baxter-Bell has been eating at the buffet tonight. First the appetizer, then the entree, then dessert and now he’s at the soft serve machine” as he dropped the last 2 free throws.

I think it's safe to say they will not go winless in the SEC again this year.Fools gold, they haven't even come close to competing in any SEC game following that Auburn game. Losing by 19 at home to A&M and 21 at home to Tennessee is pathetic. With having to play at Kentucky on Wednesday, looks like they will go 0-8 for the month.
SMU is ranked 89th in USNWR which is pretty worthl[…]
