RankTeamReason
1 Villanova University Logo Villanova Another easy choice
2 Duke University Logo Duke 2-4 you could certainly argue in any order, depending on how you weigh things. I think that while ASU's resume stands out, it's close...
3 Michigan State University Logo Michigan State enough to justify a "tie-breaker" based on who I'd like on a neutral court. I think the answer is Duke or MSU, and Duke has come out on...
4 Arizona State University Logo Arizona State top here.
5 Texas A&M University Logo Texas A&M
6 West Virginia University Logo West Virginia WVU is my favorite to win the Big 12 this year...at least on paper.
7 University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Logo North Carolina Big win over Tennessee. Trending way up.
8 Texas Christian University Logo TCU Second best resume of the undefeated teams. Nevada ans SMU wins look really nice.
9 University of Miami (Florida) Logo Miami (FL) I suppose they will just hang around here until January. We will see if they are real soon enough.
10 Xavier University Logo Xavier An almost loss is still a win
11 University of Oklahoma Logo Oklahoma Disrespected last week with being left out of the rankings. I don't think we can possibly do that again.
12 University of Virginia Logo Virginia
13 University of Kentucky Logo Kentucky
14 Purdue University Logo Purdue Purdue is quietly a Final Four caliber team, and their resume is really showing it. Big streak since WKU loss.
15 Wichita State University Logo Wichita State Maybe slight over-ranked at 15? I really struggled with the Shockers this week.
16 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga
17 University of Tennessee Logo Tennessee Given movement around them, a close loss to #7 isn't going to budge a team with the 27th rated SOS
18 Florida State University Logo Florida State The 0 was covering up a mostly uninspiring schedule to this point.
19 Seton Hall University Logo Seton Hall
20 University of Kansas Logo Kansas
21 Texas Tech University Logo Texas Tech
22 Baylor University Logo Baylor
23 University of Arizona Logo Arizona
24 Clemson University Logo Clemson People may hate this, but two top 50 wins and the only loss to a neutral court Temple team. Seems pretty good.
25 University of Cincinnati Logo Cincinnati Finally won some games against decent competition
