Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Virginia | LW: 1 |
2 | Villanova | LW: 2 |
3 | Michigan State | LW: 6 |
4 | Xavier | LW: 4 |
5 | Purdue | LW: 3 |
6 | Cincinnati | LW: 7 |
7 | Texas Tech | LW: 8 |
8 | Clemson | LW: 9 |
9 | Duke | LW: 11 |
10 | Kansas | LW: 10 |
11 | Auburn | LW: 5. Lost at home by 1 to a surging A&M team, nothing to be ashamed of. I do have questions about this team's ceiling |
12 | North Carolina | LW: 19. Huge win over Duke and a revenge win over State. Still, these guys aren't the Final Four teams we've seen the past couple years |
13 | Gonzaga | LW: 16 |
14 | Ohio State | LW: 20. @Purdue is a monster win. With respect to Bennett and Beard, Holtmann might just be coach of the year. |
15 | Tennessee | LW: 12 |
16 | Texas A&M | LW: NR. In the past week they won vs Kentucky and @Auburn. Their extended slump might've made people forget about how talented they are |
17 | Arizona | LW: 18 |
18 | URI | LW: 21 |
19 | Saint Mary's | LW: 13. A loss to Zaga isn't a concern, but Jock Landale being held to 4 on just 4 shots is. Looking forward to a conf tourney rubber match |
20 | West Virginia | LW: 14. WVU has joined Florida, Bama, and Carolina as the teams I just don't get this year. They might win or lose any given game |
21 | Oklahoma | LW: 15. Tough losses this week, but both were forgivable. @Texas Tech on Tuesday is gonna be insane, let's see if they can sweep! |
22 | Kentucky | LW: 17. People need to calm down about UK. No, this isn't a championship-caliber team. But their losses this week won't kill them. |
23 | Creighton | LW: 24 |
24 | Michigan | LW: 23 |
25 | Florida | LW: NR. My favorite vexing team is back with a couple nice wins this week. Now they'll probably lose to Georgia at home |
