+3 - Good win in Cinci this weekend. I still miss that elite win on their resume to be confortable with this #3 spot
4
Marquette
+3 - I'm curious on how they'll handle their end season schedule with tough road games and two games against Uconn.
5
Tennessee
-2 - I'm impressed by the SEC this year so dropping road games is to be expected. Still I'd have liked Tennessee to look a bit better on Saturday
6
North Carolina
-1 - 2-2 in their last 4, including a home loss this week to Clemson. Nothing alarming but I'd like them to be a bit better.
7
Kansas
-3 - 1-4 on the road in the B12 - including this week in KSU - with the lone win against Ok St. Not good enough for a championship contender.
8
Arizona
+2 - P12 is bad but still 2 wins on the road against the best P12 has to offer is a very solid week
9
Iowa State
+5 - Kept up their impressive B12 play with two solid wins
10
Auburn
-1 - See Tennessee
11
South Carolina
+1 - With 6 tough games out of their last 7, the Gamecocks have an amazing opportunity to lock up a top 3 seed - if not more - for March
12
Alabama
+3 - One of the hottest teams in the country since conference play started.
13
Illinois
-2 - Illinois is really solid, but they keep missing the opportunity at getting true quality wins. I would like them to sweep their February schedule until that game in Madison
14
Duke
+3 - Duke keeps on winning the games they should win. Those Baylor and, to a lesser extent, MSU wins keep carrying that resume
15
Baylor
+3 - No shame in losing in Lawrence by 3. They go up mostly as a byproduct of others moving down.
16
Northwestern
+3 -Nice bounce back week. Still feels this team is almost more comfortable against great opposition than mediocre one.
17
Wisconsin
-9 - Oh boy. Is it happening again? Last week losses were fine, but Michigan and Rutgers? Yikes. Suddenly, this upcoming game against OSU feels like a must win one...
18
Kentucky
-5 - Tough stretch for the Calipari boys. Schedule doesn't really get easier either, so they'll have to pick it up quite soon
19
Ole Miss
+1 - Missed opportunity in Columbia this week.
20
Mississippi State
+1 - As the schedule eases up for them, they'll start racking up more conference wins like this week.
21
Virginia
NR - 8 wins a row including 3 good wins in a row. I wouldn't want to face them right now
22
Clemson
NR - I was almost writing them off two weeks ago. But what a week they've just had. They almost locked up their ticket for March but also backed up their great OOC
23
Creighton
0 - Winning in Xavier was important to not enter February with three straight losses.
24
Nebraska
0 - Still great at home. Still can't win on the road.
25
Indiana State
NR - Welcome Sycamores. Missed the cut: SDSU, TTU, WSU, USU and TCU
