Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Gonzaga | Good win on the road in a hostile environment. Clearly the number 1 team with a solid resume. Let's see if they can go undefeated |
2 | Villanova | Solid win at XU. Proven winner and defending champs |
3 | Kansas | |
4 | Baylor | |
5 | Arizona | |
6 | Louisville | Rough loss to Virginia, but they were missing a few key starters. Still one of my March favorites |
7 | West Virginia | Press Virginia. Solid Team, but inconsistent |
8 | UCLA | Good win vs Oregon to add to their win at Rupp |
9 | North Carolina | Close loss at Duke. Not sure we learned much new information this week |
10 | Oregon | Dominant first half against UCLA, but they couldn't finish the job |
11 | Virginia | Dominant win at Louisville and a slip up against a decent VT team |
12 | Wisconsin | Their luck finally ran out |
13 | Florida | This team is on a roll and are rattling teams with a great defense and fast tempo. |
14 | Duke | Duke is becoming the team we thought they were which could be scary for the rest of the field come March |
15 | Kentucky | They seem to be in a rutt, but this team should keep winning and will have a chance for a few more quality wins as the season wares on |
16 | Cincinnati | SMU had their offense confused and flustered the whole second half. Need to see this team rebound; hopefully not a recipe to beat Cincy |
17 | Purdue | |
18 | SMU | Great win against Cincy. Hot team and their defense is stifling. |
19 | Florida State | |
20 | South Carolina | Tough loss to a surgin bama team in 4 OTs |
21 | Creighton | They are learning how to play without their star and gaining confidence. |
22 | Notre Dame | Solid wins over FSU and WF this week |
23 | Wichita State | One of the hottest teams in the NCAA few people are talking about. |
24 | Maryland | rough loss on the road @PSU, but I still believe the third best BIG team |
25 | Dayton | Welcome UD! Next 5: Butler, Cal, vcu, USC, xavier |
