Zloggt's Ballot for Week 20 of 2021-22| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Kansas
|
I mean...what else do I have to say lol |
| 2 |
North Carolina
|
And the runner-up... |
| 3 |
Duke
|
"Third place", on the account of having the closer gamer |
| 4 |
Villanova
|
"Fourth place"...not bad though! Shame they weren't at full-strength |
| 5 |
Gonzaga
|
Gonzaga had been dominant enough where they stick around here - though of course, it is far from what they wanted... |
| 6 |
Houston
|
Coogs! They finally belong right where they deserve! |
| 7 |
Arizona
|
Wildcats season is good enough to keep them from moving a lot, though they drop a bit regardless... |
| 8 |
Arkansas
|
Despite the occasional shakiness, the Hogs are very good - and have solidified themselves again in the top! |
| 9 |
Baylor
|
Baylor is good, and was CLOSE to making the Sweet Sixteen and beyond. Now, UNC going to the NCG helps their case, but not by much |
| 10 |
Purdue
|
Obviously a rough way to exit the tournament, but the Boilermakers are Top Ten no matter what by that point! |
| 11 |
Texas Tech
|
VERY underrated - I respect them! |
| 12 |
Providence
|
The Friars redeemed themselves from the ugly loss to Creighton to form a successful run - including a decent loss to eventual champions! |
| 13 |
Auburn
|
I don't want to be TOO harsh...but unfortunately, the Tigers stumbled very much over the last few weeks... |
| 14 |
Miami (FL)
|
Always hovering underneath the Top 25, the Hurricanes now have made it - and are here to stay! |
| 15 |
Tennessee
|
SEC Champions give you much room - but getting blown out by Michigan ain't great either way... |
| 16 |
UCLA
|
Fairly decent season - could be better, but can't complain at a Sweet Sixteen |
| 17 |
Kentucky
|
Again, can't punish too much, but that was NOT a good loss, even with Saint Peter's being better than we thought... |
| 18 |
Wisconsin
|
Eh, regular season was good enough, even with the meh postseason |
| 19 |
Illinois
|
Ditto...that fits the both of them VERY much! |
| 20 |
Saint Mary's
|
Much respect to the WCC - even outside Gonzaga, this is a serious mid-major conference! |
| 21 |
Iowa State
|
The highest of highs, the lowest of lows...the Cyclones got to experience it all |
| 22 |
St. Peter's
|
P E A C O C K S ! This should be a good placement - deserves to be here! |
| 23 |
Murray State
|
Maybe I am generous, but I can't fault the Racers TOO much here...I believe this is fair |
| 24 |
Michigan
|
Ugh...fine...the Wolverines were better than I would admit... |
| 25 |
Iowa
|
Come on, Hawkeyes...at least you won in Indianapolis... |
