| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Villanova
|
Self explanatory. Balanced roster, athletic, shooters everywhere, and a stud PG. |
| 2 |
Michigan State
|
Young & turnover prone, but they can just keep throwing bigs at you. Great defensive team. |
| 3 |
Duke
|
BC loss was eye-opening and showed their defensive weaknesses, but this team still has so many weapons. |
| 4 |
Miami (FL)
|
Another long & athletic team. Tough defensively too. |
| 5 |
Arizona State
|
Some good wins and they deserve to be up here for now. Will see if they can keep up their 3 point shooting. |
| 6 |
Texas A&M
|
Best SEC team. With some solid W's. |
| 7 |
Purdue
|
One of the top resume's in the country. Senior laden team with size and 3 point shooters. |
| 8 |
Oklahoma
|
This team is awesome to watch. Trae Young playing like the NPOY & it's not close. |
| 9 |
Arizona
|
Bahama blah blah blah. This team is loaded with talent, and the return of Rawle Alkins has only made them better. |
| 10 |
West Virginia
|
Not many great wins, but Jevon Carter is a stud and this team will always be tough. |
| 11 |
Xavier
|
This team's bench concerns me, but Trevon Blueitt |
| 12 |
North Carolina

Tough loss to Wofford but but nice bounce-back vs. OSU. |
