RankTeamReason
1 University of Michigan Logo Michigan Still cruising.
2 University of Kansas Logo Kansas Could have done slightly better vs Nova but not bad enough to drop them. Still a top tier resume.
3 Duke University Logo Duke I will not overvalue head to head results. Decent resume, and they would be favored against anyone on a neutral court.
4 Gonzaga University Logo Gonzaga I will not overvalue head to head results. Insane schedule and resume still, and playing w/o Tillie. Loss at UNC isn't bad at all.
5 University of Nevada, Reno Logo Nevada Last two games were kinda concerning, but they've still amassed one of the best resumes in the country
6 University of Virginia Logo Virginia
7 Michigan State University Logo Michigan State Crazy good win at Florida headlines their top tier resume (insanely difficult schedule). Stellar bigs.
8 University of Tennessee Logo Tennessee I will not overvalue head to head results. I still need to see more out of their guards. Top 8 are a tier above the rest in my opinion
9 University of Wisconsin-Madison Logo Wisconsin
10 University of Oklahoma Logo Oklahoma 5th, 10th best resume in the country according to WAB, SOR. They don't pass your eye test? Only 3/10 games have been at home. Few ez games.
11 University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Logo North Carolina I will not overvalue head to head results, nor recency. +5 spots. Resounding win vs Zags, but not every game has been that good for them.
12 Auburn University Logo Auburn 0_õ I saw that UAB game. Not pretty, but a win is a win. Should be a tight race betw Tenn, Florida, and Miss St for the SEC
13 Texas Tech University Logo Texas Tech Not the best resume, but of course they're 10-0. Not much they can do to do better, but I expect them to succeed as tougher games follow
14 Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University Logo Virginia Tech
15 University of Nebraska-Lincoln Logo Nebraska JPJ! Less than stellar resume but this team looks really good. They pass my eye test. Offense has been on the rise; great defense all year.
16 Mississippi State University Logo Mississippi State
17 Florida State University Logo Florida State
18 Indiana University Bloomington Logo Indiana Stellar resume.
19 University at Buffalo Logo Buffalo
20 University of Houston Logo Houston Stellar resume. Still cannot believe how well they're doing without Rob Gray.
21 Ohio State University Logo Ohio State Big drop. What were y'all doing versus Bucknell!?!? Probably a one-off, but no good team should have that kind of a game vs #205 at home.
22 Arizona State University Logo Arizona State
23 University of Iowa Logo Iowa
24 Iowa State University Logo Iowa State Not quite a resume deserving of the top 25, but they haven't been at full strength all year. I expect them to be top 10.
25 St. John's University Logo St. John's They aren't that good, but they're undefeated and they have the 17th hardest resume to achieve (even w/ a weak schedule). Gotta respect that
