FYI: This is a provisional ballot. It does not count towards this poll's results.
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Kansas
|
(Prev. 2) Not only did Kansas beat a very experienced top 5 Tennessee team, but that MSU team is looking better every week. |
| 2 |
Gonzaga
|
(Prev. 3) Praise the lord the beast has been slain, giving Gonzaga the number 2 slot |
| 3 |
Nevada
|
(Prev. 4) Nevada is looking scary good, I think the harder half of their non-con will prove this ranking correct. |
| 4 |
Duke
|
(Prev. 1) Duke lost, but they only lost by 3, and to the number 3 team. Nothing to worry about Blue Devils. |
| 5 |
Virginia
|
(Prev. 8) Virginia still looking pretty dang good, that defense is still stifling. Got a good win over Wisconsin. |
| 6 |
Auburn
|
(Prev. 6) Auburn lost, but they lost to a Duke squad with at least 3 lottery picks. They drop, not hard though. |
| 7 |
Michigan State
|
(Prev. 11) Dismantled a 17th ranked UCLA squad, then came back to a comfortable win against a Texas team that just beat UNC. |
| 8 |
Tennessee
|
(Prev. 7) Missed an opportunity in loss to Kansas, but still a solid squad of experienced players. |
| 9 |
Michigan
|
(Prev. 9) Still haven’t lost yet. This team will get a serious test against UNC this week. |
| 10 |
North Carolina
|
(Prev. 5) May have lost to a hot handed Texas team, but recovered nicely in win over UCLA. |
| 11 |
Kentucky
|
(Prev. 10) Didn’t lose so they didn’t drop, and no one behind did anything exceptional. |
| 12 |
Virginia Tech
|
(Prev. 12) Still undefeated |
| 13 |
Kansas State
|
(Prev. 13) See VT *I'll say it here because there's no space elsewhere. This week was weird, alot of teams 15-25 lost. Rankings moved alot* |
| 14 |
Florida State
|
(Prev. 14) May have lost (to the defending champs), but so did the teams right behind them. Plus they beat LSU. |

(Prev. 25) Carsen Edwards finally had his off-night with 19 points and 5 assists… gasp. |
| 21 |
Indiana
|
(Prev. Unranked) Gave a big one to Marquette a week and should have won against Marquette. |
| 22 |
Furman
|
(Prev. Unranked) Undefeated with wins on the road versus Loyola and Villanova. |
| 23 |
Texas
|
(Prev. Unranked) Has a proven go-to guy in Kerwin Roach with win over 5th ranked North Carolina, loss to MSU pushed them down. |

Villanova
|
(Prev. Unranked) Bounce back wins against Oklahoma State and number 13 Florida State. |
| 25 |
Wisconsin
|
(Prev. Unranked) Ethan Happ has been good as ever with an improved supporting cast, a loss to an elite Virginia doesn’t mean they’re bad. |
