Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Michigan State | Likely the best player in the country playing with a ridiculous surrounding cast and a deep bench. |
2 | Duke | I don't see how a team with Carter, Trent, and Duval won't contend for the title. I think Allen returns to form too. |
3 | Arizona | I see one more good run before the scandal hits. Trier returning is huge and I think Ayton will be th emost dominant frosh in the NCAA. |
4 | Wichita State | 31-5 #8 kenpom team that barely lost to Kentucky in the tourney returns practically everyone. |
5 | Kansas | I wouldn't be shocked if Newman became a star with good coaching and actual players around him. |
6 | Kentucky | Nearly have an NBA starting lineup of freshmen. They might have the fiercest frontcourt in the country next season. |
7 | Villanova | |
8 | North Carolina | |
9 | Florida | |
10 | Miami (FL) | |
11 | USC | |
12 | West Virginia | |
13 | Xavier | |
14 | Notre Dame | |
15 | Louisville | |
16 | Cincinnati | |
17 | Purdue | |
18 | Seton Hall | |
19 | UCLA | |
20 | Minnesota | |
21 | Saint Mary's | |
22 | Alabama | |
23 | Virginia | |
24 | Butler | |
25 | Northwestern |
