Rattus375's Ballot for Week 3 of 2019-20| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Michigan State
|
Lost to Kentucky, but shot poorly from 3 and had several players in foul trouble and still kept it close. Great win over seton hall |
| 2 |
Louisville
|
Lot of good pieces and have been dominant against crappy competition so far |
| 3 |
Virginia
|
Defense has been dominant and the win over Syracuse was impressive |
| 4 |
Gonzaga
|
Dominant win over Texas A&M puts them at 4 for now |
| 5 |
Kansas
|
Not thrilled with Kansas, but they have dominated weak competition and probably beat Duke without the turnovers |
| 6 |
Duke
|
Shaky game against Georgia State drops them behind kansas. Offense is a concern, but defense looks very good |
| 7 |
Ohio State
|
Good wins over Cincinnati and Nova. One of the best resumes in the country, though eye test puts them behind Duke for now |
| 8 |
Arizona
|
Huge win over Illinois and big wins over every other team they've played |
| 9 |
Seton Hall
|
Myles Powell is a stud and the defense looks great. |
| 10 |
Kentucky
|
Tough loss to Evansville, but the defensive performance against MSU keeps them top 10 for now |
| 11 |
Maryland
|
Nothing special so far, but a ton of returning talent and no bad performances yet |
| 12 |
Oregon
|
Good win over a strong memphis team |
| 13 |
North Carolina
|
Cole Anthony is great, but I doubt the pieces around him and think his efficiency will suffer against good teams |
| 14 |
Texas Tech
|
I was a doubter to start and I'm still not sold on this team, but they've done everything you can ask of them so far |
| 15 |
Tennessee
|
Good win over a solid Washington team |
| 16 |
Utah State
|
Haven't watched them yet, but a bunch of comfy wins over bad teams so far |
| 17 |
Texas
|
Win over a decent Purdue team and took care of business otherwise |
| 18 |
VCU
|
Haven't watched yet, but beat a solid LSU team, which outweighs the shaky win at North Texas |
| 19 |
Penn State
|
Good win over Georgetown and blow outs vs the scrubs. People are sleeping on this team |
| 20 |
Memphis
|
This ranking is assuming Wiseman manages to regain eligability |
| 21 |
Wisconsin
|
Big win over Marquette and close game vs St Mary's |
| 22 |
Evansville
|
Undefeated and beat Kentucky. I'll wait and see |
| 23 |
DePaul
|
No iffy wins and a good victory over Iowa |
| 24 |
Baylor
|
I like the pieces and the 3 point shooting vs Washington seems like a fluke |
| 25 |
Xavier
|
Missouri State win makes me iffy on this team |
