Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Michigan State | |
2 | Duke | |
3 | Louisville | *still* skeptical of Darius Perry at the 1, can't shake the memories of the Duke loss last season. But Lville has been so consistent |
4 | Gonzaga | Gonzaga has become a Fortune 500 Company...no wait, that's not right. But for real, they're scary deep |
5 | Kansas | |
6 | Ohio State | dominated Nova, defense ranks 4th by Mr. Pomeroy's metric, was high on them all offseason and imma keep this hype train rolling |
7 | Kentucky | Not gonna overreact too much to the Evansville loss, but gotta drop them some |
8 | North Carolina | |
9 | Virginia | |
10 | Oregon | |
11 | Texas Tech | |
12 | Arizona | |
13 | Villanova | got killed by Ohio State, but they still rise two spots from last week because there are SO MANY inconsistent teams |
14 | Auburn | my biggest riser from the last week (+11), but Okoro has been amazing and they still got like 20 dudes who can shoot |
15 | Florida State | still a big fan of the Noles, but that Florida win has lost some of its luster |
16 | Maryland | still not buying into a Turgeon-coached team in the top 10 until they beat someone good, sorry |
17 | Baylor | |
18 | Tennessee | second biggest riser (+10). Pons on the block has completely changed the Vols outlook |
19 | Xavier | nice win against Mizzou, bad win against Missouri State |
20 | Seton Hall | been low on the Hall since the preseason (had them 30th); but so far, I think I was wrong. |
21 | VCU | that win against LSU was beautiful. Love Santos-Silva |
22 | Washington | |
23 | Texas | |
24 | LSU | |
25 | Memphis | gotta drop em as long as Wiseman is out. FELL OUT: Florida (8), Purdue (22), Saint Mary's (23) |
