Submitted on Sunday, March 15, 2015 at 5:45PM EDT
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Kentucky
|
34-0, undisputed #1. |
| 2 |
Villanova
|
2 road losses (1 OT) in a tough Big East, and undefeated since Jan. 19. |
| 3 |
Arizona
|
Absolutely crushed Oregon in Pac-12 'ship. |
| 4 |
Duke
|
1 rematch with UVA away from really knowing how good this team is. |
| 5 |
Wisconsin
|
A loss to Rutgers keeps them off my 1 line. But who will be the 1 seed they match up with? |
| 6 |
Virginia
|
Have not looked good as of late. Fallen out of 2 seed consideration. |
| 7 |
Notre Dame
|
ACC champs - absolutely a 2 seed. |
| 8 |
Iowa State
|
Big 12 Champs, 2-1 vs. KU. This team is on the verge of a 2 seed. |
| 9 |
Gonzaga
|
The more I look at who they've beaten, the less impressive 32 wins looks... |
| 10 |
Northern Iowa
|
Great team, but their close wins are not inspiring. Didn't have to beat WSU in Arch Madness. |
| 11 |
Kansas
|
Injuries and ineligibility, inability to hold a lead or rebound. 2 seed weeks ago, 3 seed now. |
| 12 |
Maryland
|
KenPom hates Maryland, but I can't see why. 3 seed. |
| 13 |
Wichita State
|
Bad loss in Arch Madness, questionable calls and rowdy fans gave them MVC 1st. I don't know how good they are. |
| 14 |
Oklahoma
|
Exceptional talent, great coaching. They're going to break some hearts in March. |
| 15 |
North Carolina
|
ACC Runner-up, figuring things out at the right time of year. Just need to close out games and they would be REALLY good. |
| 16 |
Baylor
|
So much rebounding ability, a win @ Hilton. Great team when Drew doesn't over-coach. |
| 17 |
Arkansas
|
Made it to SEC final and kept it close until the last 8 minutes or so. |
| 18 |
West Virginia
|
Took KU down to wire in AFH, puts up hell of a fight against Baylor. A few favorable bounces and this team has some signature wins. |
| 19 |
Louisville
|
No clue what the Cardinals are this year. Top 20 for sure, but beyond that? |
| 20 |
Utah
|
Hard team to figure out. Lack of composure recently. |
| 21 |
SMU
|
Very few losses, and none ruinous to their resume. They get the UConn monkey off their back too. |
| 22 |
Georgetown
|
Between Butler and GTown, I pick the Hoyas. Big East beat itself up this year. |
| 23 |
Michigan State
|
Izzo knows how to do March. This team is similar to WVU, and would not surprise me if they reach the S16 or E8. |
| 24 |
VCU
|
A few stumbles, but in general they have shown tons of fight and they finally beat Dayton |
| 25 |
Stephen F. Austin
|
Still think these guys can break some hearts. Only one true stumble on the season. |
