RankTeamReason
1 Duke University Logo Duke Duke has simply not been defeated yet and has been the #1 team in the country. It's hard to say they shouldn't remain #1 w/ comp defeated.
2 University of Kansas Logo Kansas They didn't lose and played well this week!
3 Michigan State University Logo Michigan State They didn't lose to any bad teams yet and they deserve a chance to climb back to the #2 spot, slowly.
4 Villanova University Logo Villanova They did well this week, no problem letting them climb.
5 University of Kentucky Logo Kentucky They are almost back to where they started.
6 University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Logo North Carolina They did well this week, no problem letting them climb. But I think they lose to MSU

8 University of Miami (Florida) Logo Miami (FL) Played very well, can't wait to see the Minnesota matchup next week.
