| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Virginia
|
blood week this week, but losing (away) to the #1 kenpom team, who I used to have #1 by 2? I think they still deserve it |
| 2 |
Tennessee
|
I was real close to having tennessee #1 again since I used to have them there, but my above is why not. good winning though still |
| 3 |
Duke
|
Losing to cuse in OT is almost like a tie, and then beating th e#1 team, close and at home, but still a string showing not drop much |
| 4 |
Gonzaga
|
yawn |
| 5 |
Michigan State
|
up to #3 in kenpom, an dtheir losses are not that bad to kansas and ot to louisville. this team seems QuIeTlY going up ranks |
| 6 |
Michigan
|
I feel like this loss was called by a few folks, also lower in kenpom than you think |
| 7 |
Kansas
|
huh, played strong schedule, been having some issues, especially with offense, not a good loss one bit |
| 8 |
Virginia Tech
|
#7 in kenpom though has a super bad SoS and got wrecked by virginia. losing is expected, wrecked seems bad |
| 9 |
Nevada
|
I think I get 2 yawns in the top 10, though neveda is only 19 in kenpom computers arent as big a fan |
| 10 |
North Carolina
|
just winning again this last week. can see if they are the gatekeepers of the top of the acc against this week vs VT |
| 11 |
Texas Tech
|
uh losing against iowa state isnt that bad, though at baylor sorta is. still #11 in kenpom and we're starting to get only this season data |
| 12 |
Maryland
|
two decent to good wins against wisconsin who can beat anyone as they showed and a formerly highly ranked OSU team |
| 13 |
Kentucky
|
good win against auburn, was at home and close though so maybe its more of a close game than should've been |
| 14 |
Marquette
|
the new class of the big east? kenpom says nova is though |
| 15 |
Buffalo
|
I had them lower than many, they won vs some single digit win teams at this time of year. ok |
| 16 |
Auburn
|
did expected vs a and m and sorta expected vs kentucky, slightly lower and barely lost. great combvack to make it close |
| 17 |
Houston
|
at least that loss didnt get them down, and they are back rolling against |
| 18 |
Ole Miss
|
such a big jump then loses against LSU (who only has 3 losses?) at least got arkansas later in the win |
| 19 |
Mississippi State
|
back on that winning train vs some mediocre sec teams |
| 20 |
Villanova
|
proving xavier isnt going to ruin their season |
| 21 |
NC State
|
losing to wake forest? have lots of wins but bad SoS big drop |
| 22 |
Iowa
|
similar to buffalo, I didn thave them ranked, but almost, and they won vs 2 singl digit teams |
| 23 |
Nebraska
|
getting a decent bump even losing to a high ranking team as most their losses are to high ranked folks |
| 24 |
Louisville
|
a pretty good first year for first year coach |
| 25 |
Purdue
|
