IrishBall's Ballot for Week 2 of 2017-18
Submitted on Monday, November 13, 2017 at 12:20AM EST
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Michigan State
|
Gonna stand by with what I said last week, rankings definitely changing next week with the Classic |
| 2 |
Duke
|
I believe Duke will have a hard time against MSU and we will the devils drop in the rankings. |
| 3 |
Kansas
|
I'm gonna move Kansas passed Arizona based on how much better they looked than the cats. Arizona had some issues with UMBC for a bit to long |
| 4 |
Arizona
|
Expecting them to win out until the A&M game at least. Cal baker is a scary team tho. Could have the potential for a huge upset. |
| 5 |
Wichita State
|
Wichita just committed a murder. And it wasn't the worst of the week. Jesus |
| 6 |
Villanova
|
Villanova got jumped by the shockers basically because of the struggle they had vs Columbia who isn't supposed to be very good. Fix it guys. |
| 7 |
Kentucky
|
This mid major almost lost twice so either the teams they played are pretty good (that's what I think with Vermont) or they are overrated. |
| 8 |
North Carolina
|
Looking at their schedule, although they aren't the team of last year, they have a pretty light schedule in noncon. they could win out |
| 9 |
Florida
|
Didn't play, didn't move. |
| 10 |
USC
|
Nobody lost so stay here Trojans. Nothing much too say |
| 11 |
Cincinnati
|
Wanted to move ND over them but Cincinnati did eventually take total control over Savanna state so they get the 11 |
| 12 |
Notre Dame
|
ND had some trouble with DePaul who doesn't look too bad. Noncon is 90% guarantees, and only game they realistically lose is against MSU. |
| 13 |
Miami (FL)
|
Friendly Reminder Pitt got killed by navy who was killed by Miami. Pitt=Shit |
| 14 |
Xavier
|
X also committed a murder. We had a lot of these this week. |
| 15 |
Texas A&M
|
Sorry for not ranking you last week, you clearly are a lot better than I thought. |
| 16 |
Seton Hall
|
Had some trouble with a mediocre Monmouth squad. Early season jitters they'll get it together and slap Indiana around this week |
| 17 |
Minnesota
|
Sorry gophers can't move no losses |
| 18 |
Saint Mary's
|
WEEKLY GAEL FACT: The Gaels play in the west coast conference that has often had multiple bid teams |
| 19 |
Purdue
|
Oh look another murd- JESUS PURDUE ITS ALREADY DEAD STOP STOP WHY YOU MONSTER. I KNOW THEY SUCK BUT YOU MADE YOUR STATEMENT STOP OH GOD. |
| 20 |
West Virginia
|
They were winning this game at one point. They also knew how to play defense last year. Things change |
| 21 |
Louisville
|
I'm putting the cardinals on upset watch this week and the next. Seem unorganized and it really shows. |
| 22 |
Gonzaga
|
Eh |
| 23 |
Baylor
|
Struggled a bit early but got it together. Congrats same amount of wins as your football team |
| 24 |
UCLA
|
lol week 2. Who will be the joke this week? |
| 25 |
URI
|
Unlike Northwestern didn't struggle at all so I'll keep them in over the cats. Next 5: Northwestern, Providence, Bama, Virginia, Wisconsin |
