Bear Down Wildcats is #3. No big deal. What is interesting is it says this site has no forums. Which, of course, that’s all BDW is. I really don’t care. We have a core membership. I am just interested in how that sentence appeared.

Google “university of arizona basketball forum”

When I googled it, the #5 result was the index page for the forums here.

That’s a huge improvement. We were on the second page as late as last year.

How can PPU be ranked higher? It's just PGU without Ace.

Search Engine Optimization. They’ve got more words on their pages that rank high for search terms related to UA forums. In Google’s algorithm, it’s a more relevant result.

That is exactly what I see. It is the 5th result but the 3rd forum. First two are 247 and the next two are playersprogramu.
