Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Ohio State | +4 --- 3 wins of 25+ vs top 25 KP teams. The most dominant team in college basketball thus far. |
2 | Louisville | +2 --- Elite defense and solid enough offense is a winning combo. UVA would love to have that 2nd part |
3 | Kansas | -1 --- Go undefeated, win impressively vs a top 25 team, and move down. Sometimes its not about your team |
4 | Dayton | +3 --- Why was there a neutral court game scheduled in Phoenix in the same month UD also played in Maui. That's asking too much of fans |
5 | Maryland | -3 --- Still undefeated! Probably shouldn't be! |
6 | Michigan | -5 |
7 | Gonzaga | +2 --- Probably the most balanced team in the country. |
8 | Duke | +3 |

11 | Kentucky | +1 |
12 | Oregon | -1 |
13 | Auburn | +2 --- Still undefeated! Probably shouldn't be! |
14 | Baylor | +10 --- Could have come out sleepy when their fans more focused on CFB, but didn't. |
