/r/CollegeBasketball Poll

Rank	Team	Reason
1	Gonzaga	i might devote a few lines here to gonzaga. I've been writing all year that they would get to this spot And here they are.
2	Kansas	i think many people will rank them there, but im not sure many think they are the best team in the country.
3	Villanova	I do. I've watched them a couple times. The offense is spectacular, and the defense is something else.
4	Baylor	Transfer trio + Karnowski + capable freshmen. This team is good. Maybe Few's best team he's had.
5	Arizona	And with no team really standing out (I'd say there is a top tier for sure, though), this could be the year
6	Louisville	Yes, "this could be the year" has been said about Gonzaga many times. But I truly think it will be.
7	West Virginia	Now, the rest of the rankings. Quite the chaos this week. KU stays @2 w/win @UK, Nova stays @3, Baylor no change. Zona looks real good to 5
8	Virginia	louisville up. quality loss argument for them, also some sweet D. Press Va up to 7. Big win over KU
9	UCLA	Virginia also up a lot. UCLA gets benefit from other teams losing. I don't think their last 2 losses are bad, but have to fix D.
10	Wisconsin	hey they almost lost to rutgers but they didnt soo
11	North Carolina	Offense was poor against Miami's zone looks.
12	Kentucky
13	Cincinnati
14	Oregon	I still really like this Oregon team. but if they were to lose a game this week, colorado was the worse one. They will rebound.
15	Butler	Yeah they lost to Georgetown, but Georgetown is in that mode where they kind of get good enough to keep Thompson's job
16	Creighton	^pretty much same as above. But they clearly hurt without Watson.
17	Florida State	a rather large drop, but not undeserved.
18	Maryland	fuck the haters, keep winning. 19-2 is damn impressive.
19	Saint Mary's	Probably will sit around here unless they can beat Gonzaga later in the year.
20	SMU	The American isn't good. SMU has to keep winning to get that at-large. We've seen the committee snub their conference (and SMU!) before
21	South Carolina	they play sports
22	Northwestern	Welcome, we've been waiting for you.
23	Duke	Duke has issues. We've heard. But the talent is there, don't count them out. This is not a bad team.
24	Florida	i guess the Big 12 isn't that good or something.
25	Notre Dame	honorable mentions: xavier, wichita st, illinois state, virginia tech, and the next best big 12 team (isu? kstate? okstate?)
