Submitted on Sunday, January 7, 2018 at 11:01PM EST
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Villanova
|
(+3) Well that was quick |
| 2 |
West Virginia
|
(+4) This ballot is a mess, I really liked the way they held Trae Young in check Saturday |
| 3 |
Duke
|
(no chg) I don't like this one at all, but the resume is still of course there even after two road ACC losses |
| 4 |
Michigan State
|
(-3) They got waxed WHILE I was writing my ballot so I put them lower than Duke |
| 5 |
Xavier
|
(-3) Chance to prove something big in Philly on Wednesday, else they will have lost two in a row |
| 6 |
Virginia
|
(+7) Now my ACC 1A to Duke's 1 |
| 7 |
Oklahoma
|
(+5) I had them too low before and other teams had a more repulsive week than a loss @ Press Virginia |
| 8 |
Arizona State
|
(-3) |
| 9 |
Purdue
|
(+5) Boiler Ball takes the undefeated-in-the-states resume to Ann Arbor and Minneapolis this week |
| 10 |
Kansas
|
(+1) Tale of two games for KU, it still feels silly to have them 3rd in the Big XII |
| 11 |
Texas Tech
|
(+8) TTU has already proven itself to me as a top-15 team. With a win @ Norman or vs WVU, they could feel like a title contender |
| 12 |
Wichita State
|
(-4) 8 was too high, this isn't a 2-seed. Also AAC cannibalism is fierce early, WSU better watch out |
| 13 |
Kentucky
|
(-4) 1-1 on the road in this SEC isn't too bad for a week for UK |
| 14 |
Seton Hall
|
(+3) This ballot feels a little Big 12 and Big east-y |
| 15 |
North Carolina
|
(-8) Even 15 feels high after the week the Heels just had |
| 16 |
Cincinnati
|
(+4) Another week in the AAC, Cincy has to prove itself next weekend down at UCF |
| 17 |
Florida State
|
(+5) I think this is the highest I've had them |
| 18 |
Miami (FL)
|
(-2) The U gets a well-deserved week off before Saturday @ Clemson and Monday vs Duke |
| 19 |
TCU
|
(-4) Somebody has to finish fourth in this league |
| 20 |
Gonzaga
|
(+1) Another road sweep for the Bulldogs, Saint Mary's is on the 18th |
| 21 |
Arizona
|
(-3) This game was kind of sad to watch, I wonder how the guys respond to Sean's comments after |
| 22 |
Clemson
|
(NEW) 3-0 in ACC with a home game against the U next Saturday |
| 23 |
Nevada
|
(NEW) Nevada is back in at 15-3, the Bracketology guys seem to think this is a two-bid MW |
| 24 |
Auburn
|
(NEW) A couple BIG wins for a team I was doubting, should sweep the Mississippis this week |
| 25 |
Ohio State
|
(NEW)~~~~26 A&M, 27 Baylor, 28 Arkansas, 29 Tennessee, 30 Creighton, best 5-loss team Butler |
