Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Kentucky | (-) |
2 | Virginia | (-) |
3 | Gonzaga | (-) |
4 | Duke | (+1) Almost had Wisconsin jump them, but I cannot forget the head to head win. |
5 | Wisconsin | (+1) |
6 | Arizona | (+1) |
7 | Villanova | (-3) Yes they lost bad to Georgetown, but that is not the norm. |
8 | Notre Dame | (+2) Close to Louisville last week, and did more to impress me this week. Winning at NCSt. is tough, ask Duke |
9 | Kansas | (+4) Big week, if I could make to number 8 I would |
10 | Utah | (-2) So close between them, ND and KU. At the moment I believe they would lose to ND and KU neutral site |
11 | Louisville | (-2) Nothing they did wrong, just think ND and KU look to be the better teams |
12 | North Carolina | (-) |
13 | West Virginia | (+4) Teams around them lost this week and this area is pretty much a tie |
14 | Maryland | (-) Loss at IU is not terrible and as I mentioned, 13-18 is tightly bunched |
15 | Baylor | (+3) Impressive week for the Bears |
16 | Texas | (-) Loss to Kansas would be better if it was not at home, but it is still not bad |
17 | Iowa State | (-5) Loss to TTU is well, bad |
18 | VCU | (-3) UNI is the most impressive thing on their resume |
19 | Georgetown | (+4) They looked really, really good in person against Nova and showed toughness at Marquette |
20 | Wichita State | (-1) You beat Drake, Georgetown beat Nova, advantage Georgetown |
21 | Northern Iowa | (+2) I guess they go here |
22 | Indiana | (New) Yes they lost to OSU, but the win against MD is very impressive, plus I believe I have been under-rating them |
23 | Stanford | (New) |
24 | GW | (New) |
25 | Miami (FL) | (New) Out: Oklahoma, Michigan State, Iowa, Dayton Radar: Providence, St. Mary's |
