pacman-2022's Week 14 Ballot

RankTeamReason
1 Auburn Clear #1
2 Duke Clear #2
3Alabama If i could not rank anyone else top 5 I would, but I guess Alabama has a better resume than every other team from what I can tell
4 Tennessee Great win, I suppose they are a quality team, but I wouldn't trust them (or anyone but Auburn/Duke atm) in March
5 Houston OT loss I guess is the best loss of the week for the 4-10 group, so they don't fall much
6Purdue Great job not losing
7 St. John's Great job not losing? I don't know how to rank a lot of these teams, but at least St. John's doesn't have a recent bad loss
8 Michigan State Tough loss, but better than many other teams around here
9Marquette Well, they lost. But at least it was somewhat close? and to a good team?
10Florida Decimated, but its by a very good team, so slightly better
11 Texas A&M They keep winning
12 Maryland This is probably very high for Maryland, especially seeing that the AP poll hasn't even ranked them, but I really think they are currently doing better than the teams below them
13Iowa State What a terrible week for Iowa State, I don't want to drop them too hard, but I also may not be dropping them hard enough. Hopefully for their sake its a fluke and doesn't continue, but i don't know...
14 Texas Tech Begrudgingly I have to start taking TT seriously
15Arizona Great win over Iowa State, but it may be a little overshadowed by the fact that ISU then got stomped by KSU. This team changes on however Love is playing.
16 Missouri Couple good wins means they jumped up a good bit
17 Wisconsin Loss to Maryland isn't too bad, which is basically how I have to rank teams at this point
18 Kentucky Very odd flip flopping of the expected result, but I guess they're doing ok
19 UConn Just as I unrank them they do something good. I guess they'll be in the low teens for a little while unless something crazy happens (not actually that unlikely looking at how the season has gone)
20Kansas Choked a 21 point lead to Baylor, got back up 10, and choked it again AFTER VJ went out! Robert Wright III is him though so its somewhat understandable
21 Memphis Keep beating those non-top 100 teams, better than Louisville at least
22 Illinois Nebraska isn't good, you can't be losing to them (I also dropped Oregon off because of their loss to Nebraska)
23 Mississippi State Bad losses, don't think I should drop them all the way off though
24 Saint Mary's I do not think they will do anything in the tournament, but they are clearly the best in the WCC imo
25 Baylor IDC ROB WRIGHT IS HIM! As long as VJ is fine I truly think we'll bounce back this season. Although I did see him limping a lot today, so i'm really hoping he's fine.

Overall Rationale

ROB WRIGHT IS THAT GUY Done 2-2 at midnight (so technically 2-3) BAYLOR IS GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL
