Win against Cincinnati looking better each week, as are the Rams. |

Seton Hall

First 2-0 Big East start since 2000, and at least a split in their road games this week will go a long way. |
| 21 |
Ohio State

Vastly underrated team. Penn State is only "bad" loss, and that was on the road. |
| 23 |
Iowa

Good Big Ten win on the road against Ohio State. |
| 24 |
Baylor
|
Tough Big 12 opener but they could give Kansas a game this week. |

How did this team lose to DePaul? Well, the Blue Demons are 2-0 in the Big East. Stanford has wins over UNLV, Texas and Washington. |
