RankTeamReason
1 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga (-)
2 Duke University Logo Duke (+1)
3 University of Kansas Logo Kansas (+1)
4 Auburn University Logo Auburn (+2)
5 Baylor University Logo Baylor (+2)
6 Butler University Logo Butler (+5) Butler demolished UL Monroe, a pretty insignificant win, but I think #6 is more inline with Butler's season so far. Pretty good team.
7 University of Oregon Logo Oregon (+2)
8 University of Memphis Logo Memphis (-) I decided to have Butler and Oregon leapfrog Memphis due to Memphis' struggles holding on to the ball. 55 turnovers over 2 games.
9 University of Dayton Logo Dayton (+1)
10 West Virginia University Logo West Virginia (+5) Beating the #2 team on the road is pretty nice. WVU is looking legit.
11 Ohio State University Logo Ohio State (-9) Picking up a win over West Virginia would have been a great resume booster for OSU. But they lost, which is worse than a win, I'm told.
12 Villanova University Logo Villanova (-)
13 San Diego State University Logo San Diego State (-)
14 University of Louisville Logo Louisville (-9) Tough loss for Louisville to Kentucky.
15 University of Michigan Logo Michigan (-1)
16 Wichita State University Logo Wichita State (-)
17 University of Maryland, College Park Logo Maryland (-)
18 Michigan State University Logo Michigan State (-)
19 Pennsylvania State University Logo Penn State (-)
20 University of Arizona Logo Arizona (-)
21 Florida State University Logo Florida State (-)
22 University of Colorado Logo Colorado (+2)
23 Texas Tech University Logo Texas Tech (-)
24 University of Kentucky Logo Kentucky (NR) I'm still a huge skeptic of this team but they picked up a win over Louisville, and a team with 2 ranked win deserves top 25.
25 Saint Mary's College of California Logo Saint Mary's (NR) Dropped: 22. Washington, 24. Stanford. / Next 5: Virginia, Northern Iowa, DePaul, Iowa, Arkansas.
