Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Duke | (+1) |
2 | Kansas | (+1) |
3 | Gonzaga | (-2) |
4 | Baylor | (+1) Baylor has a legitimate argument for #1 but is resting comfortably at #4 for now. |
5 | San Diego State | (+8) How stupid you have to be to rank an undefeated team with multiple quad-1 wins at 13 is beyond me but I still found away. SDSU good. |
6 | Auburn | (-2) Auburn is only moving down as Baylor and SDSU leapfrog them. |
7 | Butler | (-1) |
8 | Dayton | (+1) Dayton has been slowly regaining ground as they win, and other teams lose. |
9 | West Virginia | (+1) A 7-point loss on the road to #2 Kansas should really be, and probably will, be considered a positive. |
10 | Florida State | (+11) Perhaps this big of a jump is overreacting but FSU has looked amazing as of late. |
11 | Oregon | (-4) |
12 | Michigan State | (+6) Cassius Winston is really good in case anyone forgot. |
13 | Wichita State | (+3) |
14 | Ohio State | (-3) |
15 | Maryland | (+2) |
16 | Penn State | (+3) |
17 | Villanova | (-4) Nova lost to Marquette on the road, what would have been a huge win for Big East play. |
18 | Louisville | (-4) Dare I say that Louisville are frauds that benefited from a relatively easy non-con schedule? |
19 | Memphis | (-11) Memphis lost to Georgia at home. I already mentioned that the upcoming game at WSU for them. |
20 | Arizona | - |
21 | Kentucky | (+3) |
22 | Michigan | (-7) Getting demolished never helps a teams resume, believe it or not. |
23 | Texas Tech | - |
24 | Virginia | (NR) UVA finally gets ranked again after dismantling VA Tech, and other teams losing. DROPPED: 22. Colorado, 25. Saint Mary's. |
25 | Arkansas | (NR) Arkansas takes the last open spot. NEXT 5: Colorado, Houston, Washington, Creighton, Marquette. |
