| 4 |
Kansas
|
(4) BIFM |
| 5 |
Duke

| 6 |
Xavier

Louisville

(8) Blew a lead to Baylor, but still playing good. Purdue this week. |
| 11 |
Purdue
|
(15) Beat India..... Oh wait, that was a different Purdue team. Get Louisville this week. |

| 13 |
Creighton

(16) Unfortunately you won't play anyone until BE play. |
| 14 |
Wisconsin
|

Iowa State
|
(19) Losing to Gonzaga isn't a bad loss. |
| 19 |
