Big12 is good |

Why are all the football schools basketball schools now |
| 17 |
Oregon

Pac12=also not very good |

These past couple years have been very bad for the pac12 in both football and basketball, hopefully these two can change that |
| 19 |
Marquette
|
Best Wisconsin team |

Loyola Chicago

Sister jean needs a title before 100. Do it. |
| 23 |
Western Kentucky
|
They are going to be incredibly legit and MTSU still looks great along with Marshall. CUSA could have 2 bids again |
| 24 |
St. John's
|
This is Mullin's win or else year. Good team, good preseason projections. Dont fuck it up |
| 25 |
Washington
|
Tough decision here between Purdue, Providence, NCST, Washington, and Clemson but im sure all of these teams will rank at some point |
