Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Tennessee | Tennessee's resume speaks for itself. |
2 | Virginia | Only loss is by 2 points on the road at Duke. So resume wise they're basically tied with Tennessee. |
3 | Duke | I'm willing to write off the Syracuse loss as an anomaly. Duke was missing two of their best players. The Virginia win allows me to do that. |
4 | Michigan | No more mystique of being undefeated. |
5 | Gonzaga | |
6 | Michigan State | |
7 | Kansas | They don't seem to be the same without Udoka Azubuike. |
8 | Texas Tech | |
9 | Nevada | Nevada isn't winning these conference games by the margin you'd like to see. Only a 1 point win at Boise State. |
10 | Auburn | |
11 | North Carolina | |
12 | Marquette | |
13 | Kentucky | Kentucky is trending in the right direction. |
14 | Iowa | |
15 | Houston | |
16 | Florida State | Extremely tough start to conference play. Loss at Pitt? Ouch. |
17 | Buffalo | |
18 | Maryland | |
19 | NC State | |
20 | Virginia Tech | I don't know why people have them so high. The quality wins just aren't there to justify top 10. |
21 | Villanova | |
22 | LSU | |
23 | Nebraska | |
24 | Iowa State | |
25 | Oklahoma |
