Submitted on Sunday, January 20, 2019 at 11:17PM EST
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Virginia
|
UVA is still #2 in WAB and #1 in SOR. Resume is top tier. One head to head result (especially an away loss) isn't gonna change that. |
| 2 |
Michigan State
|
Last 4 wins: @ OSU, vs Purdue, @ PSU, @Nebraska. #1 in the nation in WAB and #2 in SOR. No one is hotter. |
| 3 |
Duke
|
They played without Tre Jones and Reddish in their loss, but it was at home. You can't have Syracuse score 95 points on you. |
| 4 |
Tennessee
|
#4 in WAB and #5 in SOR. Perfect aside from an OT L, but their recent wins haven't been like UVA, MSU, Duke. Tough schedule is in Feb, Mar. |
| 5 |
Michigan
|
|
| 6 |
Gonzaga
|
|
| 7 |
Kansas
|
Whole body of work. #3 in WAB and #6 in SOR. Obviously they haven't been playing well but I mostly rank teams by their resumes. |

North Carolina

Playing amazing right now, but had to play major catch-up to get a good resume after a slow start to the year. #18 in WAB and #15 in SOR. |

Top tier resume against one of the hardest schedules in the country (#3). |

| 25 |
Nebraska

26. Purdue (good team but resume not there yet) 27. Auburn (good team but sub-top 25 resume right now). 28. Nova 29. Wisc |
