Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Gonzaga | (-) [DROPPED: 20. Missouri, 22. Tennessee, 25. Wisconsin] |
2 | Baylor | - |
3 | Michigan | (-) Michigan beat Ohio State in a fantastic game and would've moved up if not for the juggernauts that are Gonzaga and Baylor. |
4 | Ohio State | (-) Even though Ohio State lost, they put together a great performance and likewise would've moved up, if not, for you know. |
5 | Illinois | - |
6 | Oklahoma | +2 |
7 | Alabama | +2 |
8 | Villanova | +2 |
9 | West Virginia | (+2) WVU made a great comeback over the floundering Texas and they've been overall impressive these past weeks. |
10 | Iowa | (+3) Iowa's not-top-10 streak ended quickly with a wins over Wisconsin and Penn St. It looks like, so far, they've regained footing. |
11 | Florida State | (+6) Florida State second game coming off of pause went alright. All they did was beat Virginia by 21. |
12 | Creighton | +2 |
13 | Houston | (-6) Houston's third loss in the AAC put them at 2nd in the conference. They still have the most wins, but they should be undefeated. |
14 | Kansas | (+9) Kansas has been on fire, winning five in a row including wins over Oklahoma State, and most recently, Texas Tech. |
15 | Texas Tech | (-3) There's not too much wrong with a loss @ Kansas. A short drop for TTU. |
16 | Virginia | (-10) UVA had an awful week. A massive blowout loss to FSU and then a loss to the 10-8 Duke. A drop outside the top 15 is warranted. |
17 | Virginia Tech | +1 |
18 | Arkansas | +1 |
19 | Oklahoma State | +2 |
20 | USC | (-4) USC lost for the first time in a very long time, in the form of a 9-point home loss to Arizona. |
21 | Texas | (-6) Worrying time has past, it's time to start panicking about Texas. A meltdown loss to WVU gives Texas a 2-4 record over their past 6. |
22 | LSU | (NR) LSU put on an offensive masterclass against Auburn. There's a nasty loss to UK, but other than that this team has a nice resume. |
23 | San Diego State | (NR) SDSU is 17-4 and has won their past 8. |
24 | Loyola Chicago | - |
25 | Oregon | (NR) Oregon has been solid after a bad loss to Wash. St., most recently beating a good Colorado team. |
