| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Kansas
|
No Question Here heading into the Postseason that Kansas is the Number 1 |
| 2 |
Villanova
|
Showed Georgetown who's boss |
| 3 |
UCLA
|
I think they'll win the PAC-12 and Lunardi will leave them as the first four out |
| 4 |
Gonzaga
|
Gonzaga would like to just forget the 1st half of that game |
| 5 |
Oregon
|
If they continue to win they should get that 1 seed without a doubt. |
| 6 |
Arizona
|
The PAC-12 Tournament is going to be very fun with these 3 squads |
| 7 |
North Carolina
|
While the Virginia loss may have not been perfect, The Duke win is great |
| 8 |
Kentucky
|
Heading into the SEC tournament with a very good chance of winning it. |
| 9 |
Baylor
|
I don't expect much from the bears this offseason. Could see the 2-15 upset here |
| 10 |
Louisville
|
Favorite for the ACC Tournament. |
| 11 |
SMU
|
Just like that SMU is where Cincinnati left off at 11. |
| 12 |
Purdue
|
My favorite for the big 10 tournament. |
| 13 |
West Virginia
|
Baylor loss isnt terrible plus they do get a 2 seed |
| 14 |
Cincinnati
|
AAC has two top 25 teams then nobody else even in the tournament. :/ |
| 15 |
Butler
|
Look. I'm not moving butler out of the Top 15. When they sweep Nova and get the two seed in the BE Tournament. They deserve a top 16 |
| 16 |
Florida
|
Heading into the SEC a little cold. Still expect a good fight this coming week |
| 17 |
Florida State
|
Have 2 byes in the ACC Tournament. Something they haven't experienced in a LONG time. Good for them |
| 18 |
Saint Mary's
|
Heading into the WCC pretty hot. Though this BYU game may be a challenge |
| 19 |
Wichita State
|
Great win vs Illinois State. Watch out everyone the NCAAT Bracket Breakers are back again |
| 20 |
Notre Dame
|
I'm not Unranking a team that has a double bye. They'll be dangerous this march |
| 21 |
Virginia
|
Then again, ND can't beat UVA can they.... |
| 22 |
Duke
|
I will never forget what the mods did to the Duke flair after that game. Better than the MS Paint flairs |
| 23 |
Creighton
|
I really have no one else to put on here. I mean they don't have many loses and a lot of good wins, so why not |
| 24 |
MT
|
Blue Raiders are guaranteed a tournament appearance CUSA tournament champs or not |
| 25 |
Wisconsin
|
I hate having them ranked, but a win is a win especially against a good team. Next 5: Iowa State, Miami, Vermont, UNCW, NW |
