Tier 2 |

Cant always rely on Zion being healthy/out of foul trouble. The huge disparity with/without him makes them hard to rank. |

Tier 2b Very convincing win @ Cincinnati, jump LSU and Tech because they have fewer losses so their rank is more sensitive |
| 10 |
LSU
|
|
| 11 |
Texas Tech
|
DOUGH GOES IN : BIG XII CHAMPS COME OUT. A win @ ISU would have been much more convincing weeks ago |
| 12 |
Florida State

Tier 3 |
| 13 |

THE BIG XII CHANGED |
| 14 |
Purdue
|
losing @minn is a bad look |
| 15 |
Wisconsin
|
Very solid week thumping Iowa (though they are pretty ass as of late) and winning @tOSU. Very solid win resume |
| 16 |
Wofford
|
Exceptionally consistent. Should be a great title game |
| 17 |
Kansas
|
Continues to look like they needed Azubuike for those early season wins |
| 18 |
Buffalo
|
Could lose in the first round or make a final 4 run if they play consistent and Jeremy Harris can make a basket |
| 19 |
Virginia Tech
|
Losing @FSU isn't that bad, but their win resume is still pretty thin |
| 20 |
Nevada
|
Just waiting for a Utah st. rematch for the best of 3 in the mwc finals |
| 21 |
Marquette
|
That week was...rough. How the mighty have fallen |
| 22 |
Maryland
|
Beat minnesota at home ¯\_(?)_/¯ |
| 23 |
Cincinnati
|
2 loss week, but neither was that bad |
| 24 |
VCU
|
Tier 4 |
| 25 |
Villanova
|
Can I just not rank anyone at 25 please? |
