RankTeamReason
1 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga (+1) I really want to put Arizona here because I am super biased. Congrats on the #1 overall in the tourney.
2 University of Arizona Logo Arizona (+2) Keep on winning. Once we stop giving teams a 14 point handicap at the beginning of a game everyone is screwed.
3 University of Kentucky Logo Kentucky (-) I had Kentucky above Arizona last week to try to be unbiased but honestly they have pretty bad losses. Missing TyTy hurts them.
4 Auburn University Logo Auburn (-3) #1 falls from grace. Still one of the top teams in the country.
5 Duke University Logo Duke (+2) Gained some spots due to others losing
6 University of Kansas Logo Kansas (-1) They lost but so did everyone else
7 Baylor University Logo Baylor (+4) Seemed to have regained form
8 Purdue University Logo Purdue (-2) Lost to Michigan (my team would never), Illinois win keeps them from a big drop
9 Providence College Logo Providence (+2) These guys are legit
10 University of California, Los Angeles Logo UCLA (-1) Ranked loss so not a big drop
11 University of Tennessee Logo Tennessee (+4) Keep on winning
12 Texas Tech University Logo Texas Tech (-2) Lost so they drop
13 University of Houston Logo Houston (-5) Two losses in a weak conference
14 Villanova University Logo Villanova (+3) Others lost. They didn't. Up they go.
15 University of Wisconsin-Madison Logo Wisconsin (-1) Big win followed by a Rutgers loss
16 University of Wyoming Logo Wyoming (+3) It will be a crime if they aren't ranked this week
17 University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Logo Illinois (-4) Watching Illinois week to week is frustrating as someone who's team needs them to do well.
18 Ohio State University Logo Ohio State (-2) Lost to Rutgers lol
19 Michigan State University Logo Michigan State (-1) Ranked loss. Not bad.
20 Murray State University Logo Murray State (+1) Racing to the top of their conference.
21 University of Southern California Logo USC (+4) HUGE win for them this week. Pacific is nothing to scoff at.
22 Saint Mary's College of California Logo Saint Mary's (-) Lost to the best team in the country while holding them to one of their lowest point totals. No shame in that.
23 University of Alabama Logo Alabama (NR) They've had some big wins earlier in the season which is why I brought them in over other teams.
24 Xavier University Logo Xavier (NR) Swapped with UConn
25 Marquette University Logo Marquette (-5) Really rough week for them. (Teams dropped out: UConn (23), Loyola Chicago (24))
