Dropped from poll: Florida Atlantic (6), Gonzaga (10). Gonzaga dropping out seems harsh but they're outside the top 25 in KP and Torvik T-Rank and #56 in the NET. Florida Atlantic dropping out all the way from #6 also seems harsh, but they lost badly to the #288 team in the NET. New to poll: Iowa State, San Diego State. Almost famous: Dayton, Providence, Alabama, Colorado, Grand Canyon. Yes, Alabama is #5 in the NET and top 5 in KP and T-Rank, but they only have two decent wins (Indiana State and Liberty) and I don't think even blowing out Liberty is enough to get them into the top 25 right now.
