Memphis won their conference, and had an RPI around 16. So, their pre-season ranking wasn't that far off.
MSU was unrated because they lost 5 of their top 7 scorers. Where they finished is a testament to the coaching ability of Izzo (as shown by his Coach of the Year awards).

So their seed is more important than winning a conference championship as far as determining what type of season they had?
[dastardlylaugh]
As far as determing how good they are compared to everyone else in the country then yes. That's what rankings do. They determine how good you are compared to every other team in the country. WillyWolverine ●

They finished the year ranked nationally right around where they started it, so looking at this season as a whole I'd say they met expectations this year. Id say they overachieved just slightly in conference play. They did win a share of the conference but anyone who watched B1G play saw they weren't the best team in the conference. just a typical Belien team at Michigan as far as being undersized, still playing great defense, pulling the occasional upset with the help of a great home court advantage and coming out flat in some games against lesser opponents. There's been progression each year since he's been hired and I think despite the Ohio loss most UM fans are very optimistic with the direction of the program.
People put way too much weight into the early round exit. It happens every year. Cinderella teams come in more motivated and with more energy in that first game and higher seeds come in overlooking them. Do you think Missouri didn't have a great year because of one loss in the tourney? Its disappointing and you have to play your best basketball at this time but I don't think it should be the only barometer of success on a season. Because in all sports but especially college basketball, upsets can happen at any time. Any team can have a good or bad shooting night on any given game. They certainly underachieved in the tourney but I'm not ready to say this season was a disappointment by any means.
