RankTeamReason
1 University of Kentucky Logo Kentucky LW:1 If a team doesn't have an explanation, they didn't do anything noteworthy, or didn't change position at all, unless someone jumped them
2 University of Virginia Logo Virginia LW: 2
3 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga LW: 4, +1.
4 Villanova University Logo Villanova LW: 5, +1.
5 Duke University Logo Duke LW: 3, -2. They have the same amount of losses as Wisconsin, but have the head-to-head win, so I'll give them the edge
6 University of Wisconsin-Madison Logo Wisconsin LW: 6
7 University of Arizona Logo Arizona LW: 8, +1. Big win against Utah
8 Wichita State University Logo Wichita State LW: 9, +1.
9 University of Notre Dame Logo Notre Dame LW: 14, +5. Miami is a solid team, but the big jump is due to a lot of losses above them.
10 Iowa State University Logo Iowa State LW: 10. They did lose a game, but their win against Kansas offsets the loss, in my opinion
11 University of Kansas Logo Kansas LW: 7, -4. Iowa State is a good team, but the top is too tight to not drop a decent bit
12 University of Maryland, College Park Logo Maryland LW: 16, +4. Their dismantling of MSU proved that their loss to Illinois last week wasn't a sign of things to come
13 University of Louisville Logo Louisville LW: 11, -2. Losing to Duke won't drop you a ton
14 University of Utah Logo Utah LW: 12, -2. Arizona is a great team, Utah can't be penalized too much for that loss.
15 University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Logo North Carolina LW: 15
16 University of Texas at Austin Logo Texas LW: 20, +4. The win against West Virginia really rights the ship in Austin
17 West Virginia University Logo West Virginia LW: 13, -4. WVU hasn't looked as good recently as they did early in the year
18 Syracuse University Logo Syracuse LW: 17, -1.
19 Virginia Commonwealth University Logo VCU LW: 18, -1.
20 San Diego State University Logo San Diego State LW: 21, +1.
21 University of Oregon Logo Oregon LW: 25, +4. Solid win against Washington, Oregon is still in the PAC hunt
22 University of Oklahoma Logo Oklahoma LW: 19, -3. Oklahoma needs to stop losing if they want to stay relevant in the tough Big 12.
23 University of Northern Iowa Logo Northern Iowa LW: 23
24 University of Iowa Logo Iowa LW: N/A, +2. Solid win against OSU, but the real test will be against Wisconsin this week
25 Indiana University Bloomington Logo Indiana LW: N/A, +1. Indiana has been under-the-radar good this whole year
