Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | San Diego State | |
2 | Baylor | |
3 | Kansas | |
4 | Gonzaga | Solidly the top 4 teams and they've been so for a while! Props to SDSU, Baylor, KU, and the Zags. |
5 | Dayton | |
6 | Duke | Beautiful finish vs a bad UNC team. Hard to get it in my mind that it's not a crazy good win this year |
7 | Maryland | Has escaped the B10 meat grinder as of late!!! |
8 | Louisville | |
9 | Auburn | Great resume but I don't expect it to stay that way. Over-performing IMO. |
10 | Florida State | |
11 | Seton Hall | On a tear since they got Powell back |
12 | West Virginia | |
13 | Penn State | Great to see a traditionally not-so-great state school fill that arena!!! |
14 | Villanova | |
15 | Colorado | No one expected these guys to be on top above Zona and Oregon but here we are |
16 | Creighton | |
17 | Marquette | |
18 | Butler | Yes I am aware that I have Butler just one spot below Marquette, but Butler had the superior resume going into the game. |
19 | Iowa | Everyone I had around them also dropped. That's why they're not further down. |
20 | Houston | Made WSU look like little sisters of the poor. |
21 | Kentucky | |
22 | Oregon | |
23 | Northern Iowa | |
24 | Illinois | |
25 | Michigan State |
