Pitt's losses to Marquette and Notre Dame may not drop them all that far in the college basketball rankings, but I dropped them four spots in the conference rankings. Pitt had more losses than several teams I placed them ahead of in the last standings, but the Panthers got a favorable spot because they were such a hot team.

The losses may not hurt that much, but I had to drop Pitt because of them and the lost momentum. And in the end, it's just way too hard to put the Panthers above any of the five teams I ranked ahead of them.
