Submitted on Sunday, November 29, 2020 at 7:51PM EST
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Gonzaga
|
+1 Very clear #1 after the beatdown of Kansas |
| 2 |
Baylor
|
-1 Only dropped due to Zaga's performance |
| 3 |
Iowa
|
NC Garza is legit but is Iowa? |
| 4 |
Wisconsin
|
+6 A solid 2-0 start. #4 is probably too high but this is the time of the year for hot takes |
| 5 |
Illinois
|
+1 Two very convincing wins and a squeaker against Ohio. They could win the B1G |
| 6 |
Michigan State
|
+6 Wow the B1G is stacked |
| 7 |
Duke
|
+1 A 10 point win over Coppin St didn't justify a bigger jump |
| 8 |
Kansas
|
-1 Not penalizing Kansas too much for playing Gonzaga week 1 |
| 9 |
Houston
|
+7 Houston has been very impressive to start the season. Big win over Texas Tech. |
| 10 |
Villanova
|
-6 Two decent wins and a collapse against VT. Still think they are the BE favorite |
| 11 |
Creighton
|
+3 A quiet week, an easy win |
| 12 |
Tennessee
|
-1 No action yet |
| 13 |
West Virginia
|
+4 Impressive 3-0 start against some good teams |
| 14 |
North Carolina
|
+1 One game and one smooth win |
| 15 |
Virginia
|
-10 Score 89 the first game and then lose to San Fran. Interesting |
| 16 |
Florida State
|
+2 No games so they jump the two teams that lost |
| 17 |
Oregon
|
+3 See above |
| 18 |
Rutgers
|
+4 A good 3-0 start |
| 19 |
Ohio State
|
+4 How many B1G teams can be ranked this year? 8? 9? |
| 20 |
Texas Tech
|
-7 A week 1 loss is never great, but this one is quality |
| 21 |
Kentucky
|
-12 This one is still quality, but by over 10 points in Rupp. Not ideal |
| 22 |
Virginia Tech
|
NR VT continues to be top 5 killers under Mike Young. Sheesh |
| 23 |
Richmond
|
NR Welcome Richmond to the party. This early on, I feel a win over Kentucky deserves a rank |
| 24 |
Texas
|
+1 I still can't get over Shaka with hair |
| 25 |
Florida
|
-1 No games for Florida yet. (Dropped out: UCLA, ASU) |
