1 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga (22 - 0)
2 Baylor University Logo Baylor (20 - 1)
3 University of Kansas Logo Kansas (19 - 2)
4 University of Arizona Logo Arizona (20 - 2)
5 Villanova University Logo Villanova (20 - 2)
6 University of Cincinnati Logo Cincinnati (19 - 2) I'm assuming I'm an outlier here: no one else seems to want this spot so after stellar wins over SMU and X, i decided to move em up
7 University of Louisville Logo Louisville (18 - 4) RIP PITT
8 University of Kentucky Logo Kentucky (17 - 4)
9 University of California, Los Angeles Logo UCLA (19 - 3) No reason to overreact despite having a rough stretch against 2 quality teams
10 University of Virginia Logo Virginia (16 - 4) big win @ND and great game with Nova
11 West Virginia University Logo West Virginia (17 - 4) if they had any consistency they'd be top 5
12 University of Maryland, College Park Logo Maryland (19 - 2) finally got another good win @Minnesota; still feels hard to move them up a ton though
13 University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Logo North Carolina (19 - 4)
14 University of Wisconsin-Madison Logo Wisconsin (18 - 3) would be top 10 if they showed up against Rutgers
15 University of Oregon Logo Oregon (19 - 3) not a terrible week, but they deserve some punishment for losing to Colorado
16 Butler University Logo Butler (18 - 4) same as oregon really
17 Florida State University Logo Florida State (18 - 4)
18 Creighton University Logo Creighton (19 - 3) hopefully they get it together or else they'll probably be gone next week

20 Northwestern University Logo Northwestern (18 - 4) lol what a weird season this has been
21 University of South Carolina Logo South Carolina (17 - 4)
22 University of Notre Dame Logo Notre Dame (17 - 5) perhaps they should have dropped more; losing @GT doesn't seem as bad as it once did
23 University of Southern California Logo USC (18 - 4) big win over UCLA
24 Southern Methodist University Logo SMU (18 - 4) record isn't great but they've earned this spot; for Nevada: i think they're better than their record, Fresno just has their number
