Cats' Power Ranking

The latest SI "Power Rankings" came out, and I find this depressing. Following are candidates for #17 and up, which is to say these teams aren't even in the top 16:
Again, Kansas and Florida (just waiting for them to earn their way in with a good win, that's all), Pitt (best win is ... Florida State), Washington, Gonzaga, Boston College, UConn, Clemson, Dayton, Illinois, Washington State, Missouri State, Maryland, Drexel, Nevada.
So based on this list, the Cats are below teams such as Dayton, Washington St., MO St., Drexel and Nevada. Granted, power programs such as UConn are scraping for crumbs too, but Cats Fans do NOT except being held in lower esteem than Drexel. Unacceptable. Tubby Smith is a great guy, and this year's team may surprise a bit, but by March it will be the longest drought ever between Final Four appearances for UK, and it all falls on Orlando's shoulders.
