|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Villanova
|
(1) |
| 2 |
Virginia
|
(3) Was tough to determine WVU and Virginia. Ultimately, UVA got the nod. |
| 3 |
West Virginia
|
(2) I don't like dropping teams for losing games they are expected to lose. Ultimately moved UVA ahead, but it was really close |
| 4 |
Purdue
|
(5) |
| 5 |
Texas Tech
|
(6) They lost at OU, which was expected. Aren't being punished for that with no one else deserving to jump. |
| 6 |
Duke
|

Wichita State

| 10 |
Arizona
|
(11) Probably still one of the highest on Zona, but still looking good. |
| 11 |
Kansas
|
(13) KU is another weird team. They aren't impressive at home, but find ways to win. Others in front look slightly worse and are losing |
| 12 |
Oklahoma

| 13 |
North Carolina

(15) |
| 14 |
Xavier
