Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Oklahoma | MONDAY NIGHT FINNA BE SO FUCKIN' HYPE, BOYS. |
2 | Kansas | DID I MENTION HOW FUCKIN' HYPE MONDAY NIGHT FINNA BE? |
3 | Maryland | Their win over Northwestern was more of a blowout than the final score indicated. |
4 | Virginia | Honestly I'm not real high on UVA but they keep winning and they've piled up some really nice wins. |
5 | Arizona | They keep winning, too. Frankly it's mildly annoying. |
6 | Iowa State | This is partly a result of Xavier, Sparty and Butler losing + partly a result of being one missed wide open three from winning @ Oklahoma. |
7 | North Carolina | They've played two true road games and lost them both; this week they have two road games. Methinks Syracuse beats them on Saturday. |
8 | Texas A&M | They're playing really close games. Need to blow some teams out to really impress IMO. |
9 | Villanova | Hard for me to put them any higher right now. Their two losses were so ugly. |
10 | Iowa | Playing at right about their ceiling right now. Gesell is quietly putting together a helluva senior campaign. |
11 | Kentucky | HOW ARE THE ONE-AND-DONES TREATIN' YA NOW, CAL? (jk it's working pretty damn well) |
12 | Duke | Duke is puke or something idk |
13 | Michigan State | Yeah so they miss Denzel a little bit I think idk |
14 | SMU | Yes, they're undefeated. They've only played one KenPom top 50 team, though. |
15 | Purdue | Bob Huggins just had an hour-long jerk session watching Purdue-Iowa film, dreaming of a matchup with the Boilermakers in March. |
16 | Providence | What even |
17 | South Carolina | Still haven't played a top 50 KenPom team (and only play four all year, somehow-- although rankings change) so I'm still skeptical. |
18 | Miami (FL) | I can't get over the home loss to Northeastern followed by the OT win @ Nebraska. |
19 | Saint Mary's | As I've said all along, any team that can beat Utah Valley by 15 deserves to be ranked. |
20 | West Virginia | They'll prey on the weak of the Big 12 and go 1-5 against the top three teams. I don't buy them as legitimate contenders. |
21 | Xavier | What the FUCK |
22 | Louisville | THEY FINALLY BEAT A SOMEWHAT RESPECTABLE TEAM |
23 | Butler | Please refer to my analysis on Xavier. |
24 | Dayton | Please refer to my analysis on Virginia. |
25 | Colorado | Man I dunno, they win when they should win and they lose when they should lose. |
