/r/CollegeBasketball Poll

Rank	Team	Reason
1	Michigan State	The hype is real for this team. Knowing how Izzo and company had a couple years to rebuild, they will surely grab CBB by the balls.
2	Kentucky	Kentucky gonna Kentuck.
3	Duke
4	Kansas
5	Florida
6	Arizona
7	North Carolina	UNC lost quite a few key players. I think they will impress people with the level of talent that they still have, but not to last year's lvl
8	Villanova
9	Northwestern	Surprising, I know! I'm probably crazy for ranking them so high, but I think that they will surprise a lot of people this year.
10	West Virginia	Press Virginia! Long live the defensive Genghis Khan of basketball!
11	Miami (FL)	Now I just know that the U is gonna make this ranking blow up in my face, but here we are.
12	Cincinnati
13	Louisville
14	Wichita State	Switching to a new conference and most likely in for a lot of adjustments, I think that Wichita will be a real barn burner for the AAC.
15	Minnesota
16	Virginia	I can't really explain this one, but I got a good feeling about UVA.
17	Xavier	Obligatory Xavier starting top 25
18	UCLA
19	Notre Dame
20	USC
21	Seton Hall
22	Maryland	Normally I would rate U of M higher, but the live-and-die by the 3-pointer is getting a bit old.
23	Missouri	Mizzou looks good on paper. Let's see how it translates to playing real opponents.
24	Baylor
25	Gonzaga	I think Gonzaga will rise in the rankings very quickly after I see how they play. Not really sure about them yet.
