Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Gonzaga | (-) No team in the top 11 lost, so 1-11 will remain the same. |
2 | Baylor | - |
3 | Villanova | - |
4 | Texas | - |
5 | Iowa | - |
6 | Kansas | - |
7 | Tennessee | - |
8 | Creighton | - |
9 | Michigan | - |
10 | Wisconsin | - |
11 | Houston | - |
12 | Illinois | (-) After a great comeback win vs NW, Illinois lost at home to Maryland. Lots of teams in this range lost though, so they stay put at 12. |
13 | West Virginia | (+2) After a road win over OKST and a close road loss to Texas, WVU had an OK week and move up after other teams had much worse ones. |
14 | Texas Tech | (+6) TTU handled both of their games vs. Kansas St and Iowa St, and move up after other teams not handling their games. |
15 | St. Louis | (+3) SLU was idle once again, but move up thanks to losses. |
16 | Ohio State | (NR) Ohio State completed their sweep of Rutgers this week, putting the team at 9-3 and top 20 worthy. |
17 | Clemson | (+4) Clemson squeaked out over NC State, keeping their recent win streak alive. |
18 | Oregon | (-1) Oregon lost to Colorado, a good team, but won't move down far. This is still a top 20 team who lost for the first time in 10 games. |
19 | Louisville | (NR) Louisville is 8-1, most recently picking up a win over Virginia Tech. |
20 | Minnesota | (-6) Minnesota got killed on the road twice, but are still 10-4 with a pretty front-loaded conference schedule. |
21 | Oklahoma State | (-3) A three point loss to WVU shouldn't drop OKST too far. Their sub .500 conference record shouldn't last much longer. |
22 | Florida State | - |
23 | Missouri | (-7) Not a great loss for Missouri, losing to Miss. St by 15. They should stay top 25 but losing 2 of their last 3 may be worrying. |
24 | Virginia | (-) [DROPPED: 13. Rutgers, 25. Arizona] |
25 | Virginia Tech | (-2) Virginia Tech should and will stay ranked after a 2-point loss to Louisville on the road. |
