Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Kentucky | LW:1 If a team doesn't have an explanation, they didn't do anything noteworthy, or didn't change position at all, unless someone jumped them |
2 | Gonzaga | LW: 2 |
3 | Duke | LW: 3 |
4 | Virginia | LW: 4 |
5 | Wisconsin | LW: 5 |
6 | Villanova | LW: 7, +1 |
7 | Utah | LW: 11, +4. I don't see them staying this high for too long |
8 | Northern Iowa | LW: 16, +8. |
9 | Wichita State | LW: 14, +5. I hate having WSU and UNI this high, but I had to bump a couple people down. Next week, I assume they'll get jumped |
10 | Arizona | LW: 6, -4. Losing to a rival hurts, so does dropping from the top 6 |
11 | Louisville | LW: 10, -1. Losing to a top 4 team is basically excusable. |
12 | Notre Dame | LW: 9, -3. Duke is a great team, but losing by 30 is ridiculous |
13 | Kansas | LW: 10, -3. OK State is good, but beatable |
14 | Iowa State | LW: 12,-2. Baylor is having a great year, but losing to a lower ranked team... |
15 | Oklahoma | LW: 17, +2. |
16 | Baylor | LW: 22, +6. A weird week + a good year = this huge jump |
17 | North Carolina | LW: 15, -2. Virginia is solid. very little drop |
18 | Butler | LW: 24, +6. Again, weird week |
19 | West Virginia | LW: 13, -6. This skid might go on for quite a while |
20 | Oklahoma State | LW: N/A, +6. They've been playing very well in arguably the hardest conference |
21 | Ohio State | LW: 19, -2. Losing to Purdue sucks, but the Big Ten can be weird on the road |
22 | VCU | LW: 18, -4. St Bonaventure? Yeesh |
23 | Oregon | LW: N/A, +3. They've been bouncing in and out of my rankings all year, I like what they're doing |
24 | Illinois | LW: N/A, +2. The Illini are one of the more underrated B1G teams |
25 | Maryland | LW: 20, -5. They're staying in because I can't think of anyone who deserves to replace them |
