Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Purdue | |
2 | UConn | |
3 | Houston | |
4 | Arizona | |
5 | Marquette | |
6 | Kansas | |
7 | Tennessee | |
8 | North Carolina | |
9 | Baylor | Can see the argument for Baylor over UNC, but the Tar Heels have been more impressive in the games I've watched. |
10 | Iowa State | |
11 | Duke | |
12 | Auburn | Really confident that this is the top 12. Feels very muddled after this point. |
13 | TCU | |
14 | Alabama | |
15 | BYU | |
16 | Illinois | |
17 | South Carolina | Finally believing in this bunch. Hell of a job by Lamont Paris. |
18 | Florida | |
19 | Creighton | |
20 | Wisconsin | Brutal week or two. Still a very good team. |
21 | San Diego State | |
22 | Colorado State | |
23 | Kentucky | Still have the potential to beat any team in the country. Seems like a coin flip right now whether they'll do that or lose to the worst team in the country. |
24 | Indiana State | |
25 | Cincinnati | 26-28: Texas Tech, Utah State, Oklahoma |
If I had to break this up into tiers I'd have 1-2, 3-12, 13-21, and 22-28.
