man zion out isn't great, though losing to a top 20 team away isnt the worst? |

Tennessee
|
giant win this week against kentucky so we'll see how the tourney goes I guess |
| 5 |
North Carolina
|
sitting pretty, got real close against clemson though |
| 6 |
Kentucky
|
lost, badly, but against a team really close to them so doesn't seem too bad and away |
| 7 |
Michigan
|
|
| 8 |
Texas Tech
|
seems might finally sneak past kansas for the b12, with their decent wins recently |
| 9 |
LSU
|
not a tough week, but thouse around them suffered |
| 10 |
Michigan State
|
4 in kenpom? but so many losses as well. at least got got by indy barely |
| 11 |
Purdue
|
winning the b10 this year is quite the feat especially with their roster now |
| 12 |
Marquette
|
well then I had them in the top 10 for quite some time, seems like a bad loss recently though |
| 13 |
Houston
|
I had them a little lower than many, but then they go to lose |
| 14 |
Kansas
|
big ass win against KSU monday to try and keep the record going, |

what a win, yes without zion, but totally still a great team |
| 16 |
Florida State
|
|
| 17 |
Wisconsin
|
part of the indiana wrecking crew, and sliding past PSU. kind of an odd team as you don't hear much |
| 18 |
Maryland
|
another team I think I had too high proven this week. michigfan loss expected, PSU though... yoinks |
| 19 |
Nevada
|
had a bigger dorp here, and then they lose again. this team isn't looking near as scary as expected just picking on weaklings |
| 20 |
Kansas State
|
oof on that loss, but sorta expected? beating OSU also is pretty expected still on track to maybe share the b12 |
| 21 |
Buffalo
|
also another team picking on others |
| 22 |
Cincinnati
|
i feel cronin has surely got this team doing well, which I think was unexpected earlier in the year |
| 23 |
Wofford

quad 1 terriers woot even higher on kenpom |

Mississippi State
|
