Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Kansas | Beating OU on the road skyrockets you to the top. Favorable remaining schedule, and seem to be a lock for 12th straight conf championship. |
2 | Villanova | They played two teams with a below .500 record this week. Only beat one of them by 10 at home. Only good win vs. Xavier. Lost to OU by 23 |
3 | Virginia | Lost on the road to Duke by 1. (But not really) |
4 | North Carolina | Only won @ BC by 3!? |
5 | Iowa | Lost on the road to a ranked team by 7. Barely beat a terrible Minnesota team at home. |
6 | West Virginia | Lost on the road to #1. Solid road losses haven't been hurting teams on my poll this year. |
7 | Miami (FL) | Only beat unranked Pitt by 2 at home. |
8 | Michigan State | Road loss @ Purdue by 1. |
9 | Oklahoma | Home loss. Can't lose at home. |
10 | Dayton | Won both games this week, but they are mainly moving up because of what happened to other teams. |
11 | Kentucky | Solid win on the road @ SC |
12 | Xavier | Lost solidly on the road to an unranked team. |
13 | Purdue | Big win against Michigan State at home by 1, followed by a road loss against unranked Michigan. |
14 | Maryland | Lost to an unranked team at home. |
15 | SMU | Lost at home to an unranked team. |
16 | Arizona | |
17 | Duke | |
18 | Louisville | Lost two games this week, but most teams would lose @ Duke and @ND. Both games were close. |
19 | Iowa State | Lost on the road by 3 @ unranked TT. Won by 10 against a scary Texas team at home. |
20 | Notre Dame | |
21 | St. Joseph's | |
22 | Oregon | Bad week. |
23 | Providence | Providence probably shouldn't be ranked, but I try not to punish teams for road losses. They only beat GU by 3 at home. |
24 | Texas | They lost twice this week, but nearly every team in college BB would lose @ OU and @ISU. They were in both games until the very end. |
25 | Cincinnati |
