RankTeamReason
1 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga LW: 1
2 Purdue University Logo Purdue LW: 6 -> Super impressive showing in Vegas
3 University of California, Los Angeles Logo UCLA LW: 3

5 Duke University Logo Duke LW: 5 -> A healthy AJ Griffin makes this Duke team that much more dangerous
6 Baylor University Logo Baylor LW: 10 -> Baylor is the biggest beneficiary of some T-10 shake-ups

8 University of Texas at Austin Logo Texas LW: 7
9 University of Kentucky Logo Kentucky LW: 13
