Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Virginia | Merry Christmas all. |
2 | Michigan | |
3 | Nevada | Dont forget that they won @ ASU, who just beat KU there. They really don't play anyone else and need to run the table to finish in my top 10 |
4 | Tennessee | |
5 | Duke | |
6 | St. John's | @Seton Hall and home against Marquette next. Win those two games and they will probably be in everyone's top 10. Lose? Be unranked. |
7 | Houston | |
8 | Kansas | Thanks to the refs, they don't lose too much ground in my poll. |
9 | Texas Tech | Fairly close road loss against a good Duke team doesn't hurt them much. |
10 | Gonzaga | Won't play another good team the rest of the year. Won't be moving up much from this spot for me. Shame they lost to TN & unproven UNC. |
11 | Florida State | |
12 | Michigan State | |
13 | NC State | Their only loss is @ a good Wisconsin team on the road. Beat a team in most people's top 10 in Auburn. |
14 | Auburn | Bad week for the Tigers. Lost on the road and barely beat Murray State @ home. |
15 | Marquette | |
16 | Virginia Tech | Haven't played anyone this year. Won't play anyone significant until mid-January. They are stuck here until they prove themselves. |
17 | Arizona State | Lost badly on the road, but they get credit for beating Kansas @ home. Thanks Refs! |
18 | Buffalo | Good wins @Cuse, @WVU, & SanFran, but looked lost at times @MU. They play no one else, & need to keep winning to not lose ground. |
19 | Mississippi State | Only loss is a close game @ASU. |
20 | Wisconsin | Lost close games against Virginia and @ Marquette. Good wins @ Iowa, @ Oklahoma, and @Xavier. |
21 | Oklahoma | |
22 | Nebraska | |
23 | Seton Hall | Looked good in their important win @ Maryland. Win AT Kentucky helping them forget the Nebraska loss. Must beat St. Johns this week. |
24 | Kentucky | Beat a UNC team that has one good win this year (their home win against Gonzaga). Value of this win with depend on UNC's results. |
25 | Iowa State | Finally back at full strength. Could do damage in the Big 12. OKSt and Kansas looming next week. |
