RankTeamReason
1 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga
2 Baylor University Logo Baylor Previous to this week I thought Baylor was the better team out of them and Gonzaga, but Baylor looked mortal this week. Gonzaga hasn't yet.
3 Villanova University Logo Villanova
4 University of Wisconsin-Madison Logo Wisconsin
5 University of Texas at Austin Logo Texas
6 University of Iowa Logo Iowa I'm kind of shaky on Iowa this high, but at their peak I do think they can beat anyone. Their defense is going to cost them in a big game.
7 University of Kansas Logo Kansas Kansas is a team on high upset alert for March unless they fix some key issues.
8 University of Tennessee Logo Tennessee
9 University of Michigan Logo Michigan I want to rate Michigan higher, and I think they are very good, but I just can't pull the trigger yet. Gotta see more.
10 University of Houston Logo Houston
11 University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Logo Illinois
12 West Virginia University Logo West Virginia
13 Rutgers University Logo Rutgers Rutgers at 13 is a product of what I like to call, "the B1G being the best conference in the country by a long shot."
14 Texas Tech University Logo Texas Tech
15 Clemson University Logo Clemson Clemson has looked great lately. Stout D. Maybe 15 is knee-jerk but this part of the rankings feels pretty week right now.
16 University of Minnesota Logo Minnesota
17 University of Florida Logo Florida
18 Creighton University Logo Creighton Creighton has to learn how to put teams away, man.
19 University of Oregon Logo Oregon
20 Saint Louis University Logo St. Louis
21 University of Missouri Logo Missouri Missouri "We beat Illinois" Basketball.
22 University of Virginia Logo Virginia I just do not think Virginia is that good. I feel like I'm putting them here out of obligation. They have good defense, at least.
23 University of Arizona Logo Arizona
24 Duke University Logo Duke
25 Northwestern University Logo Northwestern NW's bad loss to Michigan can't take away from the fact that they beat MSU, OSU and IU & played Iowa close. They're good, just inconsistent.
