The women's rankings have to be the biggest joke ever. UND trounces the #1 team by 25 and they stay the same and get leapfrogged by some team that shouldn't even be allowed to fill UND's waterbottles. UNK got beat by SDSU by 23, IN KEARNEY!!! These regional rankings are once again a complete joke like last year!!!

A few other points regarding the NCC vs. the RMAC in womens hoops:

NCC is 15-5 against the RMAC this season, with all 5 losses by league also-rans UNC and UNO;

NCC all-time NCAA tournament record is 94-59, with 8 championships;

RMAC all-time NCAA tournament record is a stellar 3-14, including Kearney's all-time record of 3-7.

One of the problems is that due to the location of the RMAC, they don't play many non-conference intra-region games other than against UNC. Obviously, UNC is not indicative of the strength of the NCC and this skews the head-to-head records between the respective conferences. Unfortunately, the futility of the RMAC in past tournaments is apparently not held against them although it probably should.

There was absolutely no way to justify allowing Mesa St. to host last season, and there certainly was no way the RMAC should have gotten three teams in the tournament compared to the NCC's two. Mesa hadn't beaten anyone outside the pathetic RMAC and they promptly lost at home against the first non-RMAC team they faced in the tournament. It's the same this year with Kearney. They haven't beaten anyone of note either. Who cares if they go undefeated in the league if the league isn't any good? Let's see how they would do going to GF, Fargo, Brookings and Vermillion. They would go 0-4 and probably all would be blow-outs.
