FYI: updated the Stillwater write-up to acknowledge their forfeits, but it doesn't change my ranking of them.
As for the Benilde/Shakopee question, I'm just riding Shakopee momentum and have been a little skeptical on what Benilde's ceiling is this season. From a strict quality wins standpoint I understand the argument, though. This is the time of year when I start to go a bit more by feel, for good or ill.

To this end, Stillwater is 19-4 because somebody was there to witness it. There is no 17-6 except in our imagination
That's really deep, Blue!

You've bought in to Blue's crystal persuasion.

The 1997 Gophers basketball run is just a figment of our imagination as well.
