| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Kentucky
|
LW:1 If a team doesn't have an explanation, they didn't do anything noteworthy, or didn't change position at all, unless someone jumped them |
| 2 |
Duke
|
LW: 2 |
| 3 |
Virginia
|
LW: 4, +1. 3-5 are all benefiting from a couple losses above them, but they keep winning, in their defense |
| 4 |
Wisconsin
|
LW: 6, +2. |
| 5 |
Villanova
|
LW: 7, +2. |
| 6 |
Arizona
|
LW: 3, -3. Arizona always loses in Las Vegas, when will they learn? |
| 7 |
Louisville
|
LW: 5, -2. Losing to the number 1 team usually doesn't drop you much, but with things so close at the top, they'll fall |
| 8 |
Gonzaga
|
LW: 11, +3. Again, 8-10 all benefit from some big losses above them, but winning is crucial. |
| 9 |
Iowa State
|
LW: 12, +3. |
| 10 |
West Virginia
|
LW: 14, +4. Benefitting from losses above them big time. |
| 11 |
Kansas
|
LW: 8, -3. Temple? Ouch |
| 12 |
Wichita State
|
LW: 9, -3. George Washington could possibly make the tournament by the end of the year, but really Wichita State? |
| 13 |
Texas
|
LW: 10, -3. Stanford has been perennially average in recent years, bad loss for Texas |
| 14 |
Utah
|
LW: 14 |
| 15 |
Oklahoma
|
LW: 16, +1. The rest of my ranking stays basically static, a lot of the teams either didn't play, or won against unremarkable teams |
| 16 |
Ohio State
|
LW: 17, +1. |
| 17 |
Maryland
|
LW: 18, +1. |
