RankTeamReason
1 West Virginia University Logo West Virginia LW: 7; Big win over Oklahoma = big jump up to 1. Only minor blip to start season.
2 Villanova University Logo Villanova LW: 3; Didn't lose, moved up due to MSU/Duke loss. Still think WVU has the better resume at this point.
3 University of Virginia Logo Virginia LW: 9; Big win over UNC, and blowing out VT @VT
4 Michigan State University Logo Michigan State LW: 1; Losing to OSU @OSU isn't a horrible loss, but it certainly wasn't great. Still best 2 loss team.
5 University of Oklahoma Logo Oklahoma LW: 6; @WVU isn't a bad loss, but their only moving up due to who lost ahead of them
6 Duke University Logo Duke LW: 2; Now have 2 losses to team outside KenPom top 75. Need to figure out how to beat bad teams on the road.
7 Wichita State University Logo Wichita State LW: 8; Moving up 1 more because of what happened with ASU ahead of them, than anything they did. Still unsure their a top 10 team...
8 Texas Tech University Logo Texas Tech LW: 18; Winning @Kansas is losing some of it's luster, but this is a team with arguably the best 1-loss resume outside of WVU.
9 Arizona State University Logo Arizona State LW: 4; @CU is a bad loss, @KU and Xavier wins lost some quality this week, but they still have a really good 2 loss resume.
10 Purdue University Logo Purdue LW: 14; I'm holding them back more than others due to their loss to WKU, but they've looked good since then, cracking top 10 for me.
11 Xavier University Logo Xavier LW: 5; They escaped DePaul playing badly last week, but Providence got em. Bad loss, big drop.
12 University of Kansas Logo Kansas LW: 10; Another home loss, another drop. But this was a quality loss, and they beat TCU, so not knocking them too far.
13 Texas Christian University Logo TCU LW: 12; Lost, but to a quality team. Also beat a quality Baylor team.
14 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga LW: 19; Moving up mostly due to all the losses ahead of them and beating who they should beat.
15 Seton Hall University Logo Seton Hall LW: 20; Decent win pick-up over Butler, and teams ahead of them lost, mini-jump 4 spots.
16 University of Cincinnati Logo Cincinnati LW: 21; Moving up mostly due to all the losses ahead of them and beating who they should beat.
17 University of Miami (Florida) Logo Miami (FL) LW: 15; 1 win to a good team, 1 loss to a bad team. Small drop.
18 University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Logo North Carolina LW: 11; Dropping 7 may not seem like enough after 2 losses this week, but when you lose to the teams I have 4 and 12, it's not THAT bad.
19 University of Arizona Logo Arizona LW: 13; Tough mountain road trip, but a loss to CU is still a loss. And a bad one.
20 Florida State University Logo Florida State LW: 23; Could have been a bigger jump after beating UNC but lost a tough road game to Miami.
21 Auburn University Logo Auburn LW: UR; Wins over Tenn and Ark, pushed them into Top 25 in a big way for me this week.
22 University of Kentucky Logo Kentucky LW: 16; Another loss, barely beat LSU, still haven't beat anyone that matters.
23 Clemson University Logo Clemson LW: 25; Picked up 2 more wins, we'll find out if they're for real as they start working to dates with UVA, UNC, MIA next couple weeks
24 Baylor University Logo Baylor LW: 24; Lost in OT to a quality TCU team, not going to knock them for that.
25 University of Florida Logo Florida LW: UR; Besides one bad loss, the other 3 are against good opponents, and they had a good week; TAMU, ARK Dropped from rankings
