Travbowman's Week 5 Ballot

RankTeamReason
1 Auburn Already had them 1, Maui confirmed it
2 Kansas Two good road tests this week
3Tennessee Still blowing teams out
4 Marquette Trip to Ames should be spicy
5 Gonzaga Didn't look great against WVU, so I dropped them a few slots
6Kentucky Two good tests against hostile crowds this week
7 Purdue Survived the San Diego Trip
8 Oregon I previously had them unranked. Sorry for the oversight, Ducks
9Iowa State Only lost by 2 to Auburn, but so far their best win is by 5 over a solid Dayton team, with little else on the resume yet
10Alabama Win over Houston moves them up despite the loss to Oregon
11 Wisconsin Michigan and Marquette is a rough week
12 Florida Haven't played the best teams, but have destroyed all of them
13Duke Only two losses were by a combined 8 points to top 10 teams. Can they finish vs Auburn?
14 Houston They didn't lose their third game until February last season
15Cincinnati I wish they'd play a top 50 team already
16 Oklahoma Didn't get to play Gonzaga, but still won Atlantis
17 Pitt They'd like to say something about the ACC being "Duke, UNC, then everyone else" this year
18 Illinois Finally got a solid win over Arkansas
19 Baylor Fun game at UConn coming up
20Memphis Played way better in Maui than expected
21 Texas A&M Wake and TTU are two more good tests this week
22 St. John's Holding steady while the rest of the conference is falling apart
23 Drake 7 wins by double digits. It's time
24 Utah State Three straight top 100 wins on neutral courts
25 UC Irvine This defense is for real

Overall Rationale

Just missed: Texas, UGA, Nevada, Mississippi St, Ole Miss, Clemson, Michigan St, UNC
