Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | North Carolina | |
2 | Gonzaga | |
3 | Oregon | |
4 | Kentucky | Kentucky stayed in their game with North Carolina more than Kansas with Oregon. |
5 | Kansas | |
6 | South Carolina | Final Four team they definitely proved they deserve a high ranking spot. |
7 | Arizona | They should have won against Xavier. If they had played against Gonzaga, it would not have been as one sided |
8 | Florida | An exciting win against upsetter Wisconsin, and had to play a game against a conference opponent, in which seedings don't matter as much. |
9 | Xavier | I feel they're not getting a lot of respect. Maryland and FSU were easier upsets, but still upsets, and they beat Zona. |
10 | Michigan | Their performance in the Big Ten tournament and the dance were amazing. Their close game with Oregon could have seen them in the elite eight |
11 | UCLA | They had the toughest road. If they had beaten Kentucky and then UNC, they might have been the national champions. |
12 | Wisconsin | The upset against Villanova was incredible. If they had beat Florida, I think they would have had a better chance against South Carolina |
13 | Villanova | Lost to a very wrongly seeded Wisconsin. They had a very impressive season. |
14 | West Virginia | They fought hard against the Zags and had an impressive win against Notre Dame |
15 | Duke | Pretty good season overall, disappointing tournament |
16 | Butler | Ranking them over Purdue to a better Sweet 16 performance |
17 | Purdue | |
18 | Baylor | An Elite 8 team yes. Their wins to get there weren't very impressive and lost badly to 7 seed South Carolina |
19 | Louisville | A good season, and a loss to a hot Michigan |
20 | Wichita State | Hopefully they get into the American and get a better deserving seed next year! |
21 | Notre Dame | |
22 | Saint Mary's | |
23 | Florida State | I had a dream that FSU won the tournament. I'm embarrassed to say they were my winner pick. Still an impressive season in the ACC. |
24 | Cincinnati | |
25 | Arkansas | Does anyone remember their game against UNC? It was pretty close throughout |
