| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
 Michigan
|
No explanation needed |
| 2 |
Duke
|
See: Michigan |
| 3 |
Virginia
|
This team can be #1 once they get some quality wins in ACC play. That Wisconsin win was a great investment though. |
| 4 |
Tennessee
|
They've looked like a great team this year. Not much more, not much less |
| 5 |
Michigan State
|
I am a good team and sometimes good teams don't get no respect-Rodney Dangerfield. Hey, I don't get no respect! No respect! No respect at... |
| 6 |
Kansas
|
Arizona State is ruining their quality loss, so they'll stay put at 5 |
| 7 |
Nevada
|
They have a legit chance at 34-0 going into the tournament because the MWC is bad. But they'll prolly have 1 loss to UNLV because of course. |
| 8 |
Gonzaga
|
They seem to be recovering from their 2 game skid, but you're gonna need another quality win to get back in the top 5 |
| 9 |
Texas Tech
|
3rd best defense in this milennium? Sign me up. |
| 10 |
Virginia Tech
|
They would be Top 5 if they closed out vs. Penn State |
| 11 |
Auburn
|
Murray State was actually a great win. They can coast till mid-January when they play UK |
| 12 |
Florida State
|
Villanova is trying to kill their quality loss, but the LSU win and being 11-1 keep them alive |
| 13 |
Marquette
|
The only representative of Big East left because SJU lost. I'm gonna use this slot to vent. That call was bullshit. Now SOS fucks us. Great. |
| 14 |
Ohio State
|
Who knew Cincy would be a decent win? Who knew Minnesota would be a decent win? Who knew UCLA wouldn't? OSU v. MSU should be fun to watch. |
| 15 |
Kentucky
|
Shitting on Louisville was a cherry on top of the beating UNC cake. I love it. Just don't lose to Duke by 34 on your next save file. |
| 16 |
Indiana
|
Idc if this is too high this team is legit |
| 17 |
North Carolina
|
This team needs to learn consistency. Beating Gonzaga would be so much better if they didn't turn around and lose to Kentucky |
| 18 |
Mississippi State
|
They have a lot of decent wins, but they need a great win to hit the top 15 |
| 19 |
NC State
|
Kevin Keatts is a winner |
| 20 |
Wisconsin
|
Maybe don't lose to WKU? |
| 21 |
Houston
|
I see 0 in the loss column, I rank. Simple. |
| 22 |
LSU
|
I am a good team and sometimes good teams don't get no respect-Rodney Dangerfield. Hey, I don't get no respe- I'm not doing this again |
| 23 |
Oklahoma
|
They've done literally nothing this week, so they stay |
| 24 |
Iowa
|
I'm not sure how they're still ranked after Oregon shit themselves but I have no better ideas |
| 25 |
San Francisco
|
The new St. Mary's |
