hazyel's Ballot for Week 4 of 2020-21| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Gonzaga
|
At this point there's no debate who the top 2 teams are, it's just a matter of personal preference. I believe the Zags have been better |
| 2 |
Baylor
|
Second best team in the country |
| 3 |
Iowa
|
Encouraging to see they don't have to rely on Garza all the time. Lethal offensive team that beat a good UNC team |
| 4 |
Michigan State
|
Took care of business |
| 5 |
Houston
|
Beat SC and play a good quality team in Alabama this week. Not sure if they're top 5 good but I'll leave them here for now |
| 6 |
Villanova
|
Killed GT in the 2nd half and are on a good streak after the VT loss. Play UVA this week |
| 7 |
West Virginia
|
Detroyed Richmond. This team is legit and is top 10 at the very least |
| 8 |
Texas
|
Took care of business |
| 9 |
Kansas
|
Beat a really good Creighton team, their offense looked much improved. |
| 10 |
Creighton
|
Heartbreaking loss against KU. This team just needs to play better defense if they want to be real contenders |
| 11 |
Tennessee
|
Haven't been quite dominant but they've won their games regardless. Need to see more from them |
| 12 |
San Diego State
|
Have defeated two solid teams so far in UCLA and ASU. They're for real. |
| 13 |
Texas Tech
|
Struggled against ACU but still won. They need to get quality wins and KU is a good opportunity to start |
| 14 |
Missouri
|
Undefeated and have beat Illinois and Oregon. Mizzou can be a sneakily dangerous team come March |
| 15 |
Illinois
|
Great win against Duke but they blew it against Mizzou. Still a top tier team |
| 16 |
Florida State
|
Beat a good IU and FLA team. |
| 17 |
Wisconsin
|
Beat a solid RI team. |
| 18 |
Rutgers
|
Took down Syracuse but I just need to see more of them to warrant moving them higher |
| 19 |
Michigan
|
Beat a solid Penn St. team. Dickinson is so good. Their resume just needs to improve |
| 20 |
North Carolina
|
They played good vs Iowa but were just outplayed. This UNC team is good and one of the better ACC teams (although not saying much) |
| 21 |
Clemson
|
Beat a solid Alabama squad and have some quality wins under their belt which are better than teams behind them |
| 22 |
UCLA
|
Have looked alot better with Juzang and Smith. This is a top 25 team to me |
| 23 |
Virginia
|
They have been meh, not sure how much longer they can keep it up |
| 24 |
Louisville
|
They've looked good but haven't beaten quality opponents besides WKU yet |
| 25 |
Duke
|
They haven't looked good in either of their high matchup games. They need someone who can create shots |
