RankTeamReason
1 University of Louisville Logo Louisville (+1) Welcome to the top, don't let me down
2 Duke University Logo Duke (+1) Struggled a bit with Georgia State but turned it on in the 2nd half. Should have no issues beating Cal
3 Michigan State University Logo Michigan State (+1) Great win @Seton Hall last week. Probably the easiest week left on their schedule coming up
4 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga (+2) Jumping them over Kansas for now, I dont think aTm is going to be all that good but a 30 point road win is a 30 point road win
5 University of Kansas Logo Kansas (-) Nothing much going on this week. Nice dunk by that Monmouth kid though
6 University of Virginia Logo Virginia (+3) They jump UNC for me. Lost so much talent but god damn does Tonyball work wonders
7 University of Kentucky Logo Kentucky (-6) I'm going to chalk the Evansville loss to a classic case of looking past an opponent after a big game.. but the poor areas need fixing
8 University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Logo North Carolina (-1) Cole Anthony is really good. Need to get healthy and secondary options need to step up w/o Cole on the court badly
9 Ohio State University Logo Ohio State (+3) Might be the best performance of any team all year. I think they played near perfectly so I'm not gonna go too crazy but a small bump
10 University of Maryland, College Park Logo Maryland (-) Not much going on, still coached by Mark Turgeon so that's a negative
11 Texas Tech University Logo Texas Tech (-) Not much going on, still coached by Chris Beard so that's a positive
12 Seton Hall University Logo Seton Hall (+2) Good showing against MSU, was a very winnable game. Bounced back with a nice blowout on the road @Saint Louis
13 University of Oregon Logo Oregon (+3) Nice win against Memphis with Wiseman in a pseudo home game
14 University of Memphis Logo Memphis (+1) They gain a spot even with the loss because of Florida and Nova forgetting how to basketball. Wiseman's suspension is make or break
15 University of Arizona Logo Arizona (+4) Love the freshman trio of Mannion, Green, and Nnaji... wish the latter two would have came to UNC :(
16 Villanova University Logo Villanova (-8) That was quite the beating they took, but it was also a damn near perfect game from OSU. Still a believer in Nova
17 Baylor University Logo Baylor (+1) Not much going on, I think UW losing big to Tennessee confirms my thoughts that even with the loss they were the better team (for now)
18 Utah State University Logo Utah State (+3) They are playing some terrible teams but absolutely destroying them so that's nice to see
19 Virginia Commonwealth University Logo VCU (+6) Big win over former coach Will Wade. Love the FBI showing up for it too
20 University of Tennessee Logo Tennessee (NR) Kind of dominated a UW team I was maybe a lil too quick to jump up a tier... These last 5 are all really close for me
21 Auburn University Logo Auburn (-1) Would like to see the road game at South Alabama not come down to the last shot but hey, this is college basketball
22 Xavier University Logo Xavier (-) Not super inspiring performances this week at home but 2 wins nonetheless
23 University of Washington Logo Washington (-6) Think I was just too quick to jump them up after the late surge against Baylor. I think they are a better fit somewhere in this tier rn
24 University of Texas at Austin Logo Texas (NR) Welcome to the poll Shaka (OUT - Florida, St. Mary's) (Next 5 - Colorado, LSU, Florida, Arkansas, Michigan)
25 Florida State University Logo Florida State (-1) Dropping them for being down by double digits to Western Carolina. Seems like it's going to be a rollercoaster year
