3isfordale's Ballot for Week 3 of 2020-21| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Gonzaga
|
NC: I really wish Covid didn't exist |
| 2 |
Baylor
|
NC: Because this game would have been incredible |
| 3 |
Iowa
|
NC: So Luka Garza is the favorite for NPOY |
| 4 |
Michigan State
|
+2 Avoided a big letdown against Detroit Mercy so we can celebrate their win over Duke with another gain |
| 5 |
Kansas
|
+3 It wasn't pretty but Kansas pulls off a 3-0 week |
| 6 |
Houston
|
+3 I am a big believer in this team and I am not afraid to show it |
| 7 |
Illinois
|
-2 Sure they lost by double digits, but not many teams will beat Baylor this year |
| 8 |
Villanova
|
+2 The win over Texas should shore up some doubts about this Nova team |
| 9 |
Creighton
|
+2 Two big blowout wins. I need to see this team play somebody |
| 10 |
Wisconsin
|
-6 Yeah, I did have them ranked too high |
| 11 |
Tennessee
|
+1 How many weeks until they aren't eligible for a ranking? |
| 12 |
Duke
|
-5 We will know if this Duke team is good or not after Tuesday |
| 13 |
Florida State
|
+3 They took care of business to open up the season |
| 14 |
West Virginia
|
-1 Sure they lost, but they gave Gonzaga a great game |
| 15 |
Virginia
|
NC: They survived in OT to Kent St, but they have MSU this week |
| 16 |
North Carolina
|
-2 Yes they lost to Texas, but this team is definitely an improvement over last year |
| 17 |
Rutgers
|
+1 A calm 3-0 start for Rutgers |
| 18 |
Virginia Tech
|
+4 Maybe I didn't give them enough credit last week. Nova's week helps them move up |
| 19 |
Ohio State
|
NC: Undefeated, nothing much to see here |
| 20 |
Texas Tech
|
NC: That loss to Houston is quality |
| 21 |
Richmond
|
+2 So a win over Kentucky doesn't seem as impressive |
| 22 |
Texas
|
+2 I wasn't giving Texas enough credit. They are good. |
| 23 |
Michigan
|
NR: Another team that I didn't give enough credit |
| 24 |
Florida
|
+1 I will still keep them ranked until I have a reason not to |
| 25 |
San Diego State
|
NR: This was a top 5 team last year. Should have been ranked to start the year. |
