| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 North Carolina
|
|
| 2 |
Oklahoma
|
Buddy Hield is probably the POY. |
| 3 |
Xavier
|
Xavier is actually the best team in the Big East, and that says a lot about how good they are. |
| 4 |
Iowa
|
They lost @ MD in a close game when their best player had his worst game? Iowa is still the best team in the B1G |
| 5 |
Kansas
|
Close home win vs. rival on your own home court, but it took Kentucky's best game of the season to do it. |
| 6 |
Maryland
|
Trimble and Sulaimon keep this team winning |
| 7 |
Villanova
|
Providence is gonna be a bracket-buster come March, but Villanova is still top 1 or 2 in Big East |
| 8 |
Texas A&M
|
Solid win over a very good ISU team |
| 9 |
Virginia
|
Has UVA figured out how to win on the road? Maybe. Bad losses, but they're 4-0 against ranked teams. |
| 10 |
Iowa State
|
The loss @ College Station hurts, but ISU still has a great resume. |
| 11 |
West Virginia
|
Still a good team, but probably UF's best game all season, and they shot the ball very well to win. |
| 12 |
Providence
|
Probably this year's NCAAT's bracket-busting team. Wins against Butler are looking less impressive |
| 13 |
Michigan State
|
That 3-game skid was ugly, but they've rebounded with two solid wins. |
| 14 |
SMU
|
The Mustangs haven't played a ranked foe all season, and it doesn't look like they will, either. How good are they, really? |
| 15 |
Miami (FL)
|
NC State just doing NC State things. I won't hold it against you, Miami. |
| 16 |
Kentucky
|
Heroic effort against KU... I still think they'll finish #2 or 3 in the SEC. |
| 17 |
Purdue
|
2 of their 4 losses came to Iowa... their games against MD and MSU should be very telling. |
| 18 |
Louisville
|
So UL's best win was against an overrated Pitt team? Beat down by UVA. Still haven't proved themselves. |
| 19 |
Baylor
|
|
| 20 |
Oregon
|
The Ducks beat Arizona @ Arizona? Losses to Boise and UNLV aren't pretty, but they're playing better now. |
| 21 |
Arizona
|
|
| 22 |
Wichita State
|
Slowly creeping back into things now that they're healthy, they could once again be a bracket-buster. |
| 23 |
Indiana
|
Still not sure how to feel about IU. Such an easy schedule so far. |
| 24 |
Dayton
|
|
| 25 |
South Carolina
|
Next few: Saint Mary's, Notre Dame, USC, VCU, Colorado |
