Blazeth's Ballot for Week 2 of 2018-19| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Duke
|
For the record, I don't think Kentucky is much better than Michigan State. They were much more dominant than KU in their victory though. |
| 2 |
Kansas
|
|
| 3 |
Gonzaga
|
I suspect these guys will be #1 before season's end at some point; absolutely obliterated the SWAC favorite |
| 4 |
Nevada
|
I have no idea if this team deserves to be this high honestly, the entire top 9 (maybe 10) is super close still |
| 5 |
Virginia
|
|
| 6 |
North Carolina
|
Playing at the local mid majors is awesome; they looked great against Elon and pulled it out at a feisty Wofford too |
| 7 |
Auburn
|
That win over Washington is pretty impressive; I suspect people will overreact to it though |
| 8 |
Villanova
|
|
| 9 |
Tennessee
|
|
| 10 |
Florida State
|
What a win over Florida! They are borderline a top tier team in my eyes after that |
| 11 |
Kansas State
|
|
| 12 |
Syracuse
|
|
| 13 |
Kentucky
|
Maybe I'm too harsh here, but they didn't exactly look like a top 10 team against (an admittedly tough) SIU team either |
| 14 |
Oregon
|
|
| 15 |
Michigan State
|
That comeback was pretty relieving for MSU fans I'm sure; their post play got exposed hard though |
| 16 |
Virginia Tech
|
|
| 17 |
Marquette
|
People are sleeping on this team HARD imo; big game at Indiana this week |
| 18 |
Buffalo
|
MAC IS A POWER CONFERNCE |
| 19 |
Mississippi State
|
|
| 20 |
West Virginia
|
I could've chose to treat that loss as WVU being overrated, but honestly I think it was definitely more Buffalo is gooddd |
| 21 |
Iowa State
|
Murdering Mizzou without their best player got my attention; ISU looks like to be back on track this year |
| 22 |
TCU
|
Dropping TCU a lil bit for a really rough looking game against CSU Bakersfield for now |
| 23 |
Michigan
|
Shoutout to Stony Brook for going on the road to beat SCar :clap: |
| 24 |
Nebraska
|
I know they're playing ass teams but these wins are making them look scary af |
| 25 |
Clemson
|
Next 5 out: Indiana, LSU, Purdue, Texas Tech, Miami (FL) |
