wichita_gator's Ballot for Week 7 of 2014-15| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Kentucky
|
If Kentucky wins @Louisville, they will likely be undefeated until March. |
| 2 |
Duke
|
I'm still impressed by Duke's win @Wisconsin. |
| 3 |
Virginia
|
Virginia held Harvard to 27 and nearly won by 50. They will battle Duke for the ACC again this year. |
| 4 |
Arizona
|
I dropped Arizona because they have struggled against K-State, UTEP, and San Diego State. |
| 5 |
Louisville
|
Louisville had problems against Western Kentucky that will need fixed to be ready for Kentucky. |
| 6 |
Wisconsin
|
They didn't play this week. |
| 7 |
Gonzaga
|
Nearly won @Arizona, and beat St. John's in New York. |
| 8 |
Kansas
|
Kansas last 4 games have got them back on their feet after being embarrassed by Kentucky. |
| 9 |
Texas
|
I won't move the Longhorns up or down. |
| 10 |
Iowa State
|
They have handled all of their December games very well. |
| 11 |
Utah
|
The Utes nearly came back to beat Kansas in Kansas City and ended the Shockers win streak. Very good team. |
| 12 |
Wichita State
|
Only lost @Utah by 1 in OT, but have struggled to win recently. |
| 13 |
Washington
|
Washington is still undefeated, and has beat the right teams at the right time. |
| 14 |
Villanova
|
A miracle saved them from losing to Syracuse at home. I'll still drop them anyways. |
| 15 |
Maryland
|
Survived a tough challenge @Oklahoma State without Dez Wells. They appear to be Wisconsin's only challenger in the B1G. |
| 16 |
St. John's
|
St. John's only blemish is a loss to a good Gonzaga team. They will challenge Villanova in the Big East. |
| 17 |
North Carolina
|
North Carolina handed Ohio State their 2nd loss and move up. |
| 18 |
West Virginia
|
They moved up because other teams fell. |
| 19 |
Notre Dame
|
Their win over Michigan State isn't as impressive now. |
| 20 |
Ohio State
|
Ohio State has easily beat their cupcakes, but have failed to win the important games against North Carolina and Louisville. |
| 21 |
California
|
They have only lost to Texas, and play Wisconsin at home this week. Upset alert? |
| 22 |
Oklahoma
|
Their loss @Creighton is dragging them down, but the Sooners should still do great in the Big12. |
| 23 |
Baylor
|
Baylor gets into the rankings because 4 teams dropped out. |
| 24 |
Colorado State
|
I'll reward Colorado State and TCU for remaining undefeated by ranking them this week. They might surprise me and stay a little longer. |
| 25 |
TCU
|
Next 5: Miami, Northern Iowa, Arkansas, Indiana, Florida |
