| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Gonzaga
|
They have proven to be the best team in all the land defeating 2 top 10 worthy opponents and were able to beat a really good WVU team. |
| 2 |
Baylor
|
Looked very good in there victory against Illinois |
| 3 |
Iowa
|
3 dominant wins against decent mid majors, they are gonna be good in the B1G this year |
| 4 |
Michigan State
|
Good win against a quality Duke team and a good comeback win. |
| 5 |
Kansas
|
Hosted an amazing comeback against Kentucky, I think they will be up there with West Virginia and Baylor this year. |
| 6 |
Creighton
|
Have beaten some good opponents, including a NDSU team that almost beat Kansas. |
| 7 |
West Virginia
|
They lost yes, but they looked extremely good against the #1 team in the nation. I am excited to see what this team has in store! |
| 8 |
Houston
|
Beat 2 power 5 teams in a row, including a good Texas Tech team, move them up! |
| 9 |
Villanova
|
Good win against a quality Texas team which might finish in the top 3 of a very competitive Big 12. |
| 10 |
Illinois
|
They drop around 6 spots for me. They are still an amazing team even with the loss to Baylor, though I believe there are others better. |
| 11 |
Wisconsin
|
Not gonna be too harsh on them for Losing to Marquette, but I don't think they are top 10 worthy just yet. |
| 12 |
Duke
|
They lost to a good Michigan State team in a very sloppy game, they are still good, but not ready to be in the top 10 |
| 13 |
Texas Tech
|
I moved them up a couple of spots because of blowout wins over Temple and Grambling. |
| 14 |
Texas
|
Texas goes up in my books. They did lose to Villanova at home, but they have proved to me they are a legit contender in the Big 12. |
| 15 |
Virginia
|
They stay around the same ranking, no impressive victories this week. |
| 16 |
Virginia Tech
|
Virginia Tech barely beat a VMI team that Penn State blew out. They don't seem good enough to pass up the teams I ranked higher just yet. |
| 17 |
North Carolina
|
I'm not going to penalise UNC too much for their loss to Texas. but they need to learn shoot and guard better. |
| 18 |
Richmond
|
They are a legit team and I cannot wait to see them play WVU next weekend! |
| 19 |
Florida State
|
Dominate 1st win over UNF, though I really haven't seen much from them just yet. |
| 20 |
Rutgers
|
I moved them up because I think that they are going to be a very good team this year, even if they didn't play this week. |
| 21 |
Ohio State
|
I think that they can be a good team, though I am not convinced just yet since they have squeaked out some wins. |
| 22 |
Arizona State
|
Good win over Cal, I think that they might just win the PAC-12 this year. |
| 23 |
Arkansas
|
Even though they have been playing Mid-Majors, this team looks legit. They are going to be a powerhouse in the SEC. |
| 24 |
San Diego State
|
They beat a good UCLA team last week and blew out their opponents this week. Looking good! |
| 25 |
Missouri
|
I was honestly debating between putting them or Florida in. Mizzou ended up proving it with dominant victories over Oregon and Wichita State |
