Submitted on Sunday, January 28, 2018 at 10:05PM EST
FYI: This is a provisional ballot. It does not count towards this poll's results.
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Virginia
|
They have proven that they are the #1 team in the country after allowing 63 to one of the highest scoring teams in the country. |
| 2 |
Villanova
|
Nova is still hot, but it's tough not to put UVA at #1. |
| 3 |
Purdue
|
Two huge wins for the Boilermakers this week. It'll be tough to head to the RAC this Saturday, though. |
| 4 |
Michigan State
|
Let's hope the rumors aren't true (they probably aren't) about Tom Izzo. Also, impressive comeback vs Maryland. |
| 5 |
Xavier
|
Xavier sneaks into the top 5. They beat up a solid Marquette team. |
| 6 |
Duke
|
HAHAHAHAHAHA Grayson is a bitch. |
| 7 |
Cincinnati
|
That's 11 in a row for Cincy. Excited to see how they do against Houston. |
| 8 |
Arizona
|
Their in state rival win looks worse and worse. I feel like Zona should have beaten Colorado and Utah by more than 11 points combined. |
| 9 |
Texas Tech
|
Tech didn't lose this week, making them the highest ranked Big 12 team for now. |
| 10 |
Oklahoma
|
Trae Young lost a game. What will ESPN do with their lives??? I love the guy, but ESPN needs to chill. |
| 11 |
Kansas
|
Will be interesting when they head to Manhattan this week. Tough loss against OU, though. |
| 12 |
West Virginia
|
Tough week for WVU fans. First, a road loss against a non-Jalen Fischer TCU team, and blowing another big lead at home vs a blue blood. |
| 13 |
Auburn
|
These dudes are flying under the radar. It's never easy to win at Mizzou, and lowkey a trap game at Ole Miss this week. |
| 14 |
Wichita State
|
After a sloppy start against Tulsa, Shocker Nation bounces back. Two good wins this week. |
| 15 |
Gonzaga
|
I may be overranking this team, but they are still very talented. Will still be a threat come March. |
| 16 |
North Carolina
|
This is a generous ranking for a 6-loss team at this point in the season, but they're doing it with the 3rd toughest schedule. |
| 17 |
Ohio State
|
That game vs Penn State was the best college basketball game I've seen all year. Heartbreaking loss. |
| 18 |
Tennessee
|
Hopefully they can break into the top 15 by the end of this week. These guys are tough. |
| 19 |
Clemson
|
They doubled their point total after scoring 36 against Virginia. Impressive? |
| 20 |
Kentucky
|
Impressive comeback, Kentucky. You've redeemed yourself, for now. |
| 21 |
URI
|
These guys should have needed more than a buzzer beater to beat Duquesne at home. That is their 12th win in a row, though. |
| 22 |
Miami (FL)
|
Caught the end of OT in their game against Louisville, and I'm not sure who was trying to lose more. 3 Point Chain U survives. |
| 23 |
Saint Mary's
|
21-2 is an impressive record, but they are doing it with the 143rd ranked SoS. |
| 24 |
Kansas State
|
I said this last week and these guys are mad underrated. Two tough games this week, with KU coming to town then heading to Morgantown. |
| 25 |
Seton Hall
|
Congrats to Delgado on being the all-time leader in rebounds for the Big East. I wanna see these guys give Nova a game. |
