Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Baylor | best team in the nation. Gillespie and Vital are awesome, guards have such good chemistry |
2 | Gonzaga | |
3 | Kansas | worried some about Dotson as the only creator, but he looked unstoppable against Texas |
4 | Michigan State | big bounce back on the road at Wisconsin |
5 | Duke | defense was AWFUL this week. but I fear this could be like 2015 where these two losses help them get it together... |
6 | Dayton | offensive clinic against VCU. their fast break offense give me nice memories of what Carolina's used to be like :') |
7 | San Diego State | +12, that defense is V I C I O U S. McKnight has been awesome as of late. Romaro Gill one of my fav players |
8 | Seton Hall | |
9 | Florida State | teams 9-13 are all in the same tier imo |
10 | Kentucky | I know KP is lower on them, but they gutted out an awesome win at Arkansas. When Quickley, Hagans, and Maxey are on, they're elite |
11 | Butler | -7 feels harsh, but after getting stomped by DePaul, there are *some* concerns about that staunch defense |
12 | Louisville | +3, could David Johnson finally provide the answer at PG? if so, they'll keep rising. inconsistency keeps them from being higher |
13 | Oregon | -5, but I still think Pritchard is good enough to carry them deep in March |
14 | West Virginia | |
15 | Texas Tech | +2, love this team, suffocated Iowa State in their own building |
16 | Auburn | -8, they competed with Alabama til about 5 minutes left, but Florida controlled them the whole game. still no Q1 wins |
17 | Maryland | |
18 | Villanova | |
19 | Penn State | PSU, Iowa, Wisc all got great road wins this week and are all ranked closely on analytics sites. choose whichever order you want for them |
20 | Iowa | |
21 | Wisconsin | |
22 | LSU | the SEC's sleeping giant... |
23 | Arizona | |
24 | Colorado | FELL OUT: (19) Wichita State, (21) Michigan |
25 | Ohio State | Next 6: Creighton, Michigan, Illinois, Arkansas, Wichita State, Rutgers??? |
