RankTeamReason
1 Auburn University Logo Auburn I rank mostly by resume. Good records v good schedules means a lot. Eye test and efficiency metrics taken into account.
2 Baylor University Logo Baylor Why still #2? Other top teams lost. Coming into wk, BAY was #2 by a mile for me (Zag resume is lacking despite good efficiency metrics)
3 University of Arizona Logo Arizona
4 Purdue University Logo Purdue
5 University of California, Los Angeles Logo UCLA Why not higher than Zona? I don't weigh H2H more heavily than other games. Slightly worse resume
6 University of Kansas Logo Kansas Why higher than UK? I don't weigh H2H more heavily than other games. Also resume -- #3 in WAB, #4 in SOR. Better W/L against tougher SOS
7 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga Great team, resume is just lacking since they didn't take care of business like they normally do in the beginning of the season
8 University of Wisconsin-Madison Logo Wisconsin
9 University of Kentucky Logo Kentucky Hottest team in country, but they're only partway done with making up for their early struggles. Resume improving. 9 in SOR,13 in WAB.
10 University of Houston Logo Houston
11 Villanova University Logo Villanova
12 Duke University Logo Duke
13 Michigan State University Logo Michigan State
14 Providence College Logo Providence
15 Louisiana State University Logo LSU I would bet against them vs most all top 25 teams right now but their resume is still superb
16 Texas Tech University Logo Texas Tech
17 University of Tennessee Logo Tennessee
18 University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Logo Illinois
