/r/CollegeBasketball Poll

Rank	Team	Reason
1	Kentucky	Duke lost. The law states a new #1 must rise from the ashes
2	Villanova	Josh Hart is looking even better, if that's possible
3	Duke	Lost to Kansas, and only beat URI by 10. Still, I can't in good conscience put them too much lower than this.
4	Indiana	Numerous players are playing very well at the moment.
5	North Carolina	I have been extremely impressed with Tony Bradley
6	Kansas	BIFM
7	Virginia	Losing Nichols hurts; but they've held their opponent to under 40 points in 2 of their 3 games. That's crazy good.
8	Wisconsin	How dare Wisconsin make me look like a fool for ranking them so high in the preseason?! I know Creighton ain't bad, but that's unacceptable
9	Oregon	Baylor
10	Xavier	Their games are a bit closer than they should be, but they're winning
11	Arizona	Like with IU, a number of players are getting it done for Zona
12	Louisville	They've been winning. Don't got much else to say about the Cardinals lol
13	Michigan State	Lost to Kentucky but they won't fall too much for that.
14	Gonzaga	Same as Louisville. They've been winning.
15	Syracuse	They look better than I thought they would; that's for damn sure.
16	Iowa State	For years, ISU has become known for its offense, but damn. One hundred and fucking thirty.
17	UCLA	I have been conditioned to never take UCLA 100% seriously while that man is their coach.
18	West Virginia	Sure - they've been playing nobodies; but they've been racking up points at an alarming rate.
19	Purdue	They look pretty good, despite the loss.
20	$University of Texas at Austin Logo$ Texas	No movement from my last ballot. They haven't lost or beaten anyone worth a damn. So they stay put.
21	Creighton	Wisconsin and NC State? Creighton is forreal.
22	URI	Beat Cincy. And even though they lost to Duke, they deserve some credit for keeping it close like they did.
23	Miami (FL)	Jim Larranaga, one of the best coaches in the ACC, leads a solid group of guys.
24	Virginia Tech	Y'all, I'm telling you. Don't sleep on these guys
25	Maryland	Cincy falls out of my top 25. Maryland is the next guy up, so to speak.
