/r/CollegeBasketball Poll

Rank	Team	Reason
1	Gonzaga	+/- from user ballot last week
2	Arizona
3	Auburn	Let's not freak out over a 1 point road loss
4	Kentucky	Even with a road loss at Tennessee, I still feel like they are a better team than Kansas
5	Kansas	+1 Big road game @BU Saturday. Perhaps could jump to 4, especially if UK loses this week.
6	Purdue	-1 Just been unimpressive lately. Defense is disgraceful.
7	Texas Tech	+1 win vs Baylor cements TTU in the top 10. Soft schedule coming up to close the season, and could end up top 5/6 before season ends.
8	Duke	-1 Going down because TTU gotta move up.
9	Baylor	Not going to penalize a team for a road loss against a top 10 team.
10	Villanova	+2 Nova getting hotter and hotter since the turn of the calendar
11	Providence	-1 The luck of the Friars seemed to be dead after Nova, but it's back stronger than ever against Butler. Winning > Losing/
12	Houston	+1 I really don't know what to think of Houston...
13	UCLA	+1 Have a chance to crack top 10 if they win out (which is very possible given their schedule)
14	Illinois	-3 Feel like I overshot Illinois last week and needed to pull back the reigns just a little
15	Wisconsin	+1 -5 health from slap to the head but +1 in the rankings
16	Tennessee	-1 With such an ugly letdown loss something just felt like I had to drop them a spot. .705 PPP... just gross.
17	Murray State	+2 First test in a long time this week vs Belmont. Probably more like a quiz, but still.
18	UConn	+2 UConn needs to be ranked. They have lost 1 game (vs Creighton) since Jan 1 that you can say "they should have won that."
19	Ohio State	-2 Home loss vs Iowa will hopefully be a wake-up call for this team
20	USC	+2 Get through this next week and the first week of March is where we'll learn who this team truly is.
21	Saint Mary's	+2 2 good conference wins this week! Saturday vs Gonzaga will hopefully be closer than the game in Spokane.
22	Arkansas	+3 The Muss Bus is rolling and it's time to hop on
23	Alabama	new Bama is a top 10 team when they make shots and could lose to anyone when they don't. Hence, ranked 23.
24	Wyoming	Don't overreact to one road loss. A win @CSU this week could be huge.
25	San Diego State	new The dutchman has this Aztec defense going! Get your eyes on them @ my #26 team Boise St. on Tuesday!
