soccernamlak's Ballot for Week 7 of 2017-18| Rank | Team | Reason |

| 1 |
Villanova
|
Brunson had 31 against Temple, and the Wildcats remain perfect into the week before Christmas. No stops for the hype train. HOF is next. |
| 2 |
Michigan State
|
It may have been a bit close at times but MSU kept OAK at bay. Since their loss to Duke, the Spartans have won by double digits in all games |
| 3 |
Duke
|
Duke had a much needed off week since their first loss. Their defense is one issue; we'll see this week what magic K has worked. |
| 4 |
Miami (FL)
|
Huell's 15 helped the Canes beat GW, and Miami is one of 4 teams remaining that are undefeated in play. Hawaii is up next this week. |
| 5 |
Arizona State
|
Holder's 25 keep the Sun Devils perfect in play, and they start 10-0 for the first time in history! LONG and PAC this week keep them busy |
| 6 |
North Carolina
|
Roy paid a kind tribute to late Coach Summitt, and UNC rallied to beat TENN in the big ranked game last week. WOF is up next. |
| 7 |
Kentucky
|
Knox had 21, Diallo had 20, and the Cats squeaked past Virginia Tech. It's their 7th W in a row, and UCLA is up next. |
| 8 |
Texas A&M
|
The Aggies dominated SAV 113-66 with Davis having a double-double before half. NKU/BUFF this week for the 9-1 team. |
| 9 |
Wichita State
|
It was a tough loss to the Sooners, and Wichita State has some issues they need to work out (couldn't contain Young) before ARST next. |
| 10 |
Xavier
|
Win by 2 or 32 is still a win. That's what the Musketeers have to tell themselves as they were down 22 at one point. |
| 11 |
West Virginia
|
They cruised past WJ and play COPP and FOR this week. The Mountaineers remain first in the Big 12. |
| 12 |

| 14 |

Tough loss to Rutgers, they've got two games this week to see if any improvements can be made in their play. |
