Here is the Sagarin rankings. Arkansas is #40

It is my understanding that the ELO_Chess is does not take into account Margin of victory and Predictor does. If that is the case how is our Predictor better than our ELO_Chess? With close wins AT HOME to Texas St(#300) and Missou (#114) do those games get out weighed by beating Southern Miss/Portland St so bad? Or is the fact that we kept it so close with UCONN (#4) and Maryland (#31)?

By the way the SEC as a conference ranks 3rd.

Any thoughts or answers for me?
