| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 West Virginia
|
LW: 7; Big win over Oklahoma = big jump up to 1. Only minor blip to start season. |
| 2 |
Villanova
|
LW: 3; Didn't lose, moved up due to MSU/Duke loss. Still think WVU has the better resume at this point. |
| 3 |
Virginia
|
LW: 9; Big win over UNC, and blowing out VT @VT |
| 4 |
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 |
Oklahoma
|
LW: 6; @WVU isn't a bad loss, but their only moving up due to who lost ahead of them |
| 6 |
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
|
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
|
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
|
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
|
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
|
LW: 5; They escaped DePaul playing badly last week, but Providence got em. Bad loss, big drop. |
| 12 |
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 |
TCU
|
LW: 12; Lost, but to a quality team. Also beat a quality Baylor team. |
| 14 |
Gonzaga
|
LW: 19; Moving up mostly due to all the losses ahead of them and beating who they should beat. |
| 15 |
Seton Hall
|
LW: 20; Decent win pick-up over Butler, and teams ahead of them lost, mini-jump 4 spots. |
| 16 |
Cincinnati
|
LW: 21; Moving up mostly due to all the losses ahead of them and beating who they should beat. |
| 17 |
Miami (FL)
|
LW: 15; 1 win to a good team, 1 loss to a bad team. Small drop. |
| 18 |
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 |
Arizona
|
LW: 13; Tough mountain road trip, but a loss to CU is still a loss. And a bad one. |
| 20 |
Florida State
|
LW: 23; Could have been a bigger jump after beating UNC but lost a tough road game to Miami. |
| 21 |
Auburn
|
LW: UR; Wins over Tenn and Ark, pushed them into Top 25 in a big way for me this week. |
| 22 |
Kentucky
|
LW: 16; Another loss, barely beat LSU, still haven't beat anyone that matters. |
| 23 |
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

LW: 24; Lost in OT to a quality TCU team, not going to knock them for that. |
