| 2 |
Baylor
|
|
| 3 |
Villanova
|
Tier A |
| 4 |
Texas
|
Andrew Jones :') |
| 5 |
Iowa
|
Reports of Iowa's demise have been greatly exaggerated |
| 6 |
Michigan
|
Tier B | Woah |
| 7 |
Wisconsin
|
There's something about this team that makes it look worse than it actually is, but I can't quite put my finger on what. |
| 8 |
Houston
|
|
| 9 |
Tennessee
|
|
| 10 |
Kansas
|
|
| 11 |
Creighton
|
|
| 12 |
Illinois

The results for this team are a random number generator. |
| 13 |
West Virginia
|
Tier C |
| 14 |
Clemson
|
They were looking great and then they had to go and get COVID before they lost at the Dean Dome. :( |
| 15 |
Oregon
|
I guess even in a good year they still can't win in Boulder. 0-10 all-time. |
| 16 |
UConn
|
They got a late start due to COVID, but these guys are players. Only loss is at home to Creighton, which they would have won with fans. |
| 17 |
Texas Tech
|
Tier D | Nothing like Kansas State and Iowa State on the schedule to get the ol' juices flowin' |
| 18 |
Louisville
|
|
| 19 |
USC
|
Destroyed the entire state of Arizona. Evan Mobley is as good as advertised. |
| 20 |
Ohio State
|
Coincidentally, this is where I had Rutgers last week. Fitting given Ohio State swept 'em. |
| 21 |
UCLA
|
|
| 22 |
Colorado
|
Tier E |
| 23 |
Alabama
|
4-0 SEC with four really impressive wins. Pretty much erases the home loss to Western Kentucky. |
| 24 |
St. Louis
|
Not really either's fault, but I'm not gonna move Duke or Virginia back in until they beat a team that isn't at the bottom of the ACC |
| 25 |
Arkansas
|
Fringe: Virginia Tech, Florida State, Virginia, Duke, Drake, Oklahoma State, Minnesota |
