| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Gonzaga
|
Tier S |
| 2 |
Baylor
|
#1TGF |
| 3 |
Iowa
|
Tier A | Minnesota at home is basically 2015 Kentucky, so neither of their losses look all that bad and they're still dominating teams |
| 4 |
Villanova
|
Please play this week :fingers_crossed: |
| 5 |
Texas
|
Reeeeeally blew the Texas Tech game. That shoulda been a W, but I've been high on Texas Tech so I'll give them some credit too. |
| 6 |
Michigan
|
Tier B | I CALLED IT! |
| 7 |
Houston
|
Quietly staying afloat |
| 8 |
Tennessee
|
|
| 9 |
Wisconsin
|
Something about Wisconsin getting slaughtered by a team that went on to get mauled at the Barn is incredibly satisfying. Can't imagine why. |
| 10 |
Kansas
|
Tier C |
| 11 |
Texas Tech
|
Going 1-1 on the week when your week is the two top teams in the conference, with the win being a nice comeback, is an accomplishment. |
| 12 |
Oregon
|
|
| 13 |
Alabama
|
They're a basketball school now |
| 14 |
Virginia
|
In KenPom, the Clemson game pushed Virginia from #17 to #7 and Clemson from #19 to #36. It was a massacre. |
| 15 |
Ohio State
|
|
| 16 |
UConn
|
Admittedly, I docked this team a decent amount for losing their superstar player to elbow surgery |
| 17 |
Creighton
|
Their schedule doesn't have the potential for any jaw-dropping wins with Villanova KO'd and Bouknight on the bench. |
| 18 |
West Virginia
|
Please play this week :fingers_crossed: |
| 19 |
Illinois
|
If they lose to Penn State on Tuesday, they're almost certainly gone. |
| 20 |
Colorado
|
Tier D |
| 21 |
USC
|
|
| 22 |
Minnesota
|
Liam Robbins dominating Hunter Dickinson for the entire game felt soooo goooooood |
| 23 |
Florida State
|
|
| 24 |
Virginia Tech
|
There, now we can stop pretending that Duke is any good. Thanks Hokies! |
| 25 |
Clemson
|
Fringe: Oklahoma State, Saint Louis, Missouri, UCLA, LSU, Boise State, Drake |
