FYI: This is a provisional ballot. It does not count towards this poll's results.
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Michigan State
|
MSU or Kansas could easily both take the top spot, but MSU is hot right now, and it's stupid to bet against Izzo in March. |
| 2 |
Kansas
|
Easily the best of the Big 12. |
| 3 |
Virginia
|
I don't count the Duke game as a loss, so their only loss lately was @ a very good Miami team. Looking great. |
| 4 |
Villanova
|
|
| 5 |
North Carolina
|
A "good loss" @ Virginia. Other teams moving down means they move up. |
| 6 |
Miami (FL)
|
|
| 7 |
Indiana
|
They're in first place in the Big Ten and are playing well. Hopefully Crean can find some success in March. |
| 8 |
Louisville
|
|
| 9 |
Xavier
|
The win vs 'Nova was set to launch Xavier into the top 5, but the immediate stumble to Seton Hall leaves them about the same ranking. |
| 10 |
Oklahoma
|
Oklahoma got the benefit of the doubt last week, but 3 losses in the last 5 games means it's time to drop. |
| 11 |
Purdue
|
Playing well, despite being right in the middle of the Big Ten standings. No recent bad losses, just a tough schedule. |
| 12 |
Oregon
|
They won the games they were supposed to. Other teams moved down. |
| 13 |
Maryland
|
Maryland has a ton of talent but are struggling the last two weeks. Seems like Melo might have gotten his shot back. |
| 14 |
West Virginia
|
Nice win against ISU. The stats back them up. |
| 15 |
Arizona
|
Two losses this week. |
| 16 |
Iowa
|
Iowa has dropped there last 3. Need to turn things around going in to March. |
| 17 |
Kentucky
|
|
| 18 |
Duke
|
Still don't know what to think about this Duke team. They're good and they're bad. The last game against UNC should be fun. |
| 19 |
Texas
|
Awesome win against Oklahoma. Shaka is coming in to his own now. Texas heating up while other members of the Big XII cool down. |
| 20 |
Baylor
|
|
| 21 |
Utah
|
Nice win against Zona. |
| 22 |
Wisconsin
|
Last week they had our attention, and this week they deserve to be ranked. Have won 10 of the last 11, only loss @MSU. 3 top-10 wins. |
| 23 |
Iowa State
|
The state of Iowa is not liking February it seems. Hopefully they get things turned around in March. |
| 24 |
Texas A&M
|
|
| 25 |
Seton Hall
|
