Submitted on Monday, December 7, 2020 at 9:45AM EST
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Gonzaga
|
Have looked and played like the #1 team. Great W vs WVU. The positive COVID tests are concerning |
| 2 |
Baylor
|
Controlled the 2nd half vs ILL and looked REALLY good. They are a legit championship contender |
| 3 |
Iowa
|
Garza continues to dominate and Iowa is strolling rn. First quality game vs UNC next |
| 4 |
Michigan State
|
Great win against Duke, however, very questionable performance against Detroit Mercy. UVA next |
| 5 |
Creighton
|
They've been strolling so far but have a tough game vs KU next. They've looked as advertised |
| 6 |
Houston
|
They've taken care of business |
| 7 |
Illinois
|
Played hard but wasn't enough. Have an intriguing stretch against DUKE and MIZZOU next |
| 8 |
Villanova
|
Defeated a pretty good TEX team with JRE looking like a stud. Climbing back up after that VT loss |
| 9 |
West Virginia
|
Played great against Gonzaga but refs fucked them (imo). They're gonna be dangerous in conference play |
| 10 |
Texas
|
Beat a pretty good UNC team and fought NOVA till the end. |
| 11 |
Duke
|
Played poorly against MSU and showed their inexperience. Need to improve shooting. Big test against the Illini next |
| 12 |
Wisconsin
|
Tough loss against an unranked MARQ team. |
| 13 |
Tennessee
|
Haven't played yet so I won't move them up. I have high expectations for them |
| 14 |
Kansas
|
Didn't look good vs UK and barely beat NDSU. They've started on a tough schedule and face Creighton next |
| 15 |
Texas Tech
|
Other than that HOU game, they've been rolling. Won't face a real challenge until KU |
| 16 |
North Carolina
|
Devastating loss vs TEX but they showed fight in the 2nd half. Showdown against Iowa next |
| 17 |
Virginia Tech
|
Just edged out VMI. Should beast Penn St. easily. |
| 18 |
Richmond
|
|
| 19 |
Virginia
|
Went to OT against Kent St. They're not producing results that we all expected. Face a tough MSU team next |
| 20 |
Ohio State
|
They've beaten the teams they should thus far |
| 21 |
Rutgers
|
Been winning comfortably but haven't faced a real quality opponent yet |
| 22 |
Arizona State
|
Been edging out some of their wins but haven't really dominated a quality opponent.Face a good SDSU team next |
| 23 |
Michigan
|
Dominant win vs UCF |
| 24 |

|
Strong start to the season. WISC game will be first against ranked opponent |

Rolled through their first win. Intriguing 2 game stretch next |
