Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Duke | Tier 1a I think there is an argument for any of the top 3 to be at #1 , but I personally see duke as just a cut above the rest |
2 | Tennessee | Tier 1b |
3 | Gonzaga | St Mary's is vastly overrated by efficiency metrics, and to a lesser extent USF, but they are solid teams. Winning by 30 and 48 is scary |
4 | Virginia | |
5 | Michigan | Tier 1c |
6 | Kentucky | |
7 | North Carolina | tier 1d |
8 | Houston | Tier 2a |
9 | Michigan State | They still have a phenomenal win resume and unlike Kansas they don't have as many reasons for thinking there will be a continued slump |
10 | Purdue | |
11 | Nevada | continue to roll in the MWC. Really waiting for that March 2nd game |
12 | Wisconsin | Tier 2b tOP QuAliTY lOss and a quality win this week |
13 | Villanova | The narrow loss @ Marquette was less concerning than the win vs Creighton. |
14 | Marquette | If they could just not lose to St. Johns... |
15 | LSU | Tier 3 Very solid wins this week @Miss st and vs Auburn |
16 | Kansas | What to do? Their resume says 10 still, but their performances without azubuike say otherwise. Will vick return? |
17 | Louisville | |
18 | Iowa | Got their best road win this week, but IU appears to be in freefall so who knows what to make of it |
19 | Kansas State | |
20 | Florida State | |
21 | Texas Tech | |
22 | Maryland | Nebraska looks pretty bad, but winning on the road by 15 is still very solid |
23 | Iowa State | |
24 | Virginia Tech | @ me with "but KP" all you want, but your win resume is not too impressive, but you have 5 losses. Also Robinson is out indefinitely |
25 | Buffalo | Need to figure out how to play the first 10 minutes of a game 26. Cincy 27. Wofford |
