Submitted on Monday, December 23, 2019 at 1:43AM EST
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 San Diego State
|
In a world where nobody can win; a world where metrics don't love Gonzaga or Baylor who are really the only other teams |
| 2 |
Gonzaga
|
I even considered tbh, I'm gonna go ahead and reward my #1 spot to the Aztecs. Outside of one bad WIN (something these other teams |
| 3 |
Baylor
|
could take note of) against SJSU, the Aztecs have been phenomenal all season. Their resume is virtually on par with |
| 4 |
Auburn
|
the teams around them. A win @ BYU and two neutral court wins against Iowa and Creighton that look great. They murdered Utah only a week |
| 5 |
Ohio State
|
after they beat Kentucky, a team who just competed very strongly against Ohio State. I'm guessing I'm the only one so I thought |
| 6 |
Butler
|
I'd be thorough. SDSU has continuously gotten it done all season, and they're #5 on no preseason bias t-rank |
| 7 |
Louisville
|
The #1 is going to be Gonzaga who does have some good wins, but seriously that loss to Michigan is questionable at this point |
| 8 |
Duke
|
|
| 9 |
Villanova
|
|
| 10 |
Kansas
|
KU isn't actually this bad probably, but hard to justify them above anyone else imo, 0-2 against top 10 now |
| 11 |
Oregon
|
|
| 12 |
West Virginia
|
|
| 13 |
Northern Iowa
|
what a time to be alive |
| 14 |
Dayton
|
they're still pretty good according to metrics; I'm not gonna disagree by any means |
| 15 |
Memphis
|
|
| 16 |
Michigan
|
|
| 17 |
Stanford
|
|
| 18 |
Penn State
|
|
| 19 |
Wichita State
|
|
| 20 |
Colorado
|
|
| 21 |
DePaul
|
|
| 22 |
Washington
|
|
| 23 |
BYU
|
4 loss BYU is worthy of a ranking in December... what a weird season |
| 24 |
Saint Mary's
|
|
| 25 |
Iowa
|
Next 6 out: Creighton, Maryland, Utah State, Texas Tech, Liberty, Michigan State |
