Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Kentucky | No change |
2 | Duke | No change |
3 | Kansas | No change |
4 | Villanova | No change |
5 | Virginia | (Up 1) The UVA defense is incredible. Just need more consistent buckets. |
6 | North Carolina | Up 1 |
7 | Baylor | (Up 13) Baylor is playing above their talent level right now, but I think they're still a really good team. |
8 | Creighton | Up 2 |
9 | Xavier | (Up 2) Looked really good in both wins over a good UNI team. |
10 | Gonzaga | Up 6 |
11 | Arizona | (Down 2) Don't think the Butler loss is gonna be a bad one in the long run. |
12 | Wisconsin | No change |
13 | Saint Mary's | No change |
14 | Purdue | Forgot these guys last week, here they are in their rightful spot. |
15 | Oregon | (Down 7) Georgetown is not very good. Not a good loss at all. I think they get back on track with the easy schedule before Pac-12 play. |
16 | UCLA | (Up 3) Was kinda iffy on UCLA but they continue to beat teams with ease. |
17 | South Carolina | (NEW) I liked this team in the pre-season and they're proving to be very good. |
18 | Louisville | Down 4 |
19 | Syracuse | Down 4 |
20 | Indiana | (Down 15) Yeah, yeah, okay. Credit Tom Crean for playing IPFW, sure. Don't credit him for losing to them in essentially a home game. |
21 | Virginia Tech | Down 3 |
22 | URI | Up 2 |
23 | Butler | NEW |
24 | Michigan State | (Down 7) Dropped from the poll: Iowa State, West Virginia, Florida State |
25 | Florida | (Down 3) Next five: Notre Dame, Maryland, Ohio State, USC, Minnesota (barf) |
