The Maryland win, combined with Paige's return, put the Heels back at no. 3. |
| 4 |
Villanova

Still undefeated, still no good wins. The Wildcats get Oklahoma at home on Tuesday. |
| 5 |
Iowa State
|

The UCLA loss was bad, but I still think UK is a top ten team in the country. |

I love me some Press Virginia. Excited for UVA-WVU on Tuesday. |
| 17 |
Miami (FL)
|
I think the loss to Northeastern was a fluke rather than a sign. The win over Butler looks even better now and the 'Canes look legit. |
| 18 |
Butler
|
The Cincinnati win propels the Bulldogs back into my top twenty-five. |
| 19 |
Louisville
|
I was wrong. I thought Louisville was only winning because of their cupcake SOS. That loss to MSU was very telling - in a good way. |

Syracuse

The decision between SMU and Vanderbilt was agonizing. |
