/r/CollegeBasketball Poll

Rank	Team	Reason
1	Michigan State	Sparty moving on up after Kentucky lost - they were a close #2 last week
2	Iowa State	The Cyclones are underrated this year and are undefeated so far
3	Oklahoma	Ditto for Boomer Sooner
4	Purdue	Some value has to be given for being undefeated with a tough schedule, and the Boilermakers have done it
5	Villanova	Good team out of the Big East
6	North Carolina	Huge win over Maryland almost makes up for UNI loss.
7	Maryland	UNC loss isn't too bad, and they've played well
8	Kansas	Would have switched with Maryland, but that Harvard win was too close
9	Duke	Starting to play well now, not actually playing games far too close
10	West Virginia	Another good team out of Big 12
11	Kentucky	That UCLA loss was terrible,and Illinois State and BU were too close, at least for the first half.
12	Arizona	A couple of quality wins, and the loss to Providence isn't horrendous
13	Xavier	Musketeers have been playing well so far
14	Virginia	The loss to GW isn't too bad, but there are better teams to rank ahead of them for now.
15	Oregon	Pac-12 good team.
16	Baylor	Big win over Vandy last night
17	Cincinnati	The AAC is a power conference whether the selection committee believes it or not.
18	South Carolina	Is this start just a fluke? Maybe. We'll find out once SEC action starts.
19	Providence	Still a big Arizona win.
20	Louisville	How about some love for the Cardinals? Scandal and all they keep flying.
21	GW	Impressive Virginia win, played Cincy close for a quality loss
22	SMU	Another strong team out of the American
23	Butler	Good Big East team
24	Northwestern	Their only loss was to UNC. Maybe the Wildcats will finally go to their first Big Dance this year.
25	Utah	Back in the poll this week, their only loss was to Miami. The Canes have a pitiful loss to Northeastern which is why they're not ahead.
