Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Baylor | Tier 1 = |
2 | Gonzaga | Not much has changed in the top 10 this week. Iowa continues to dominate and that puts them into tier 1 with gonzaga and baylor = |

4 | West Virginia | Tier 2- Complete domination of Richmond = |
5 | Villanova | = |
6 | Michigan State | Tier 3 +2 |
7 | Texas | +2 |

9 | Illinois | Beat duke fairly handily but lost a close game to Mizzou. If not for their talent, I'd probably have them in the 15-20 range -3 |
10 | Creighton | -3 |
11 | San Diego State | Tier 4- SDSU are picking up where they left off last year and the polls should reflect that. +10 |
12 | Missouri | Missouri has quietly built the one of the most impressive resumes in the country. +11 |
13 | Kansas | +6 |
14 | Rutgers | Tier 5- All of the teams in tier 5 are extremely similar to me and could realistically be interchanged. +4 |
15 | Houston | -2 |
16 | St. Louis | -1 |
17 | Louisville | = |
18 | Virginia | -6 |
19 | Florida State | NR |
20 | Duke | -5 |
21 | Xavier | Tier 6- There are so many teams that could fit in this 21-25 range, I've been flip flopping on all of them |
22 | Clemson | Clemson has dominated all of their games, including 4 against p5 opponents NR |
23 | Oklahoma State | Despite winning all of their games, OKST haven't looked overly impressive, but wins are wins -3 |
