RankTeamReason
1 University of Virginia Logo 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 University Logo 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 University Logo 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 University of Tennessee Logo 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 University of Michigan Logo Michigan
6 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga
7 University of Kansas Logo 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.
