Inspite of Grayson Allen, they are pretty talented. Hopefully Grayson isn't a internal distraction |
| 6 |
Gonzaga

Really Struggled ranking 6-9, I feel they are all interchangeable. Where Kentucky falls is arbitrary at best. |
| 7 |
Louisville
|
They deserve to rise after the win, that's what caused the struggle in ranking. |
| 8 |
North Carolina
|
|
| 9 |
Kentucky
|
|
| 10 |
Creighton

|
| 11 |
Virginia

| 12 |
Butler
|
|
| 13 |
Purdue

very similar to the 6-9 rankings, I reshuffled the rankings 13-16 because I think WVU deserved better than 16. All these are interchangeable |

Indiana

|
| 15 |
West Virginia

| 16 |
