Rank	Team	Reason
1	Virginia	Tier 1a Best loss of the 1 loss teams. Incredibly impressive vs VT
2	Michigan
3	Tennessee
4	Duke	A home win against virginia is great, but doesn't make up for the loss to Cuse at home.
5	Michigan State
6	Gonzaga
7	Kansas	Tier 1b. Losing @ west virginia is kind of ugly. Definitely not a 2 seed a 1 seed would want to face, but a 7/10 might be happy
8	Maryland	Tier 2a. Don't @ me. 5 Q1 wins, 3 losses. 2 big wins in the B1G this week
9	Houston	Took care of business @ SMU and @ USF.
10	Virginia Tech	Got smacked by UVA this week on the road, but that was just a testament to UVA. Small number of quality wins and bad SOS is an issue though
11	Nevada	Tier 2b Won, but they need to avoid all these close calls. Can't afford more New Mexico caliber losses if they want a high seed.
12	Buffalo	EMU was rough to watch. I've seen buffalo play complete games, but they need to bury teams in the MAC. A bad loss like that would be brutal
13	Kentucky	Over Marquette for the quality of their Q1 wins, even though their losses are slightly worse and they have 3 Q1 wins instead of 4
14	Marquette	Nothing big wins or losses this week
15	North Carolina	Nothing big this week. Took care of what they needed to and made me think less about that Louisville game
16	Texas Tech	Not much to say here. Loss to Baylor is really rough and now they're just 3-3 in Q1 with a pretty bad SOS
17	Iowa	Nothing super noteworthy this week.
18	Iowa State	Tier 1c Don't really know what to think of them. Up and down and this week they had a big up.
19	Oklahoma	5 loss team and Kstate is a pretty bad home, but their SOS is insane and they still have a lot of quality wins.
20	Louisville	Oklahoma with better top wins, but their win count is padded more by Q3 and Q4 wins
21	Villanova	Rough start, but they seem to have turned it around. Still not quite enough great wins to rank them higher though
22	LSU	Tier 3 Only 1 really good win, but they do have a bevy of solid Q2 wins though and only 3 losses
23	NC State	Terrible loss to wake forest. Still unimpressive win resume with their egregious non con
24	Ole Miss	only two really good wins, 3 losses , but none bad.
25	Nebraska	5 losses, but none are bad, 2 very good wins. 26 Auburn 27 Purdue 28 Wisconsin 29 Cuse 30 Indiana 31 Miss st 32 Wofford
