1Subject's Week 15 Ballot
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Michigan | +1 Playing better opponents than Arizona of late and beating them |
| 2 | Arizona | -1 See above |
| 3 | Duke | 0 If you lead for 99% of the game, that counts as a win, right? |
| 4 | UConn | 0 L to St. John's, no shame in that |
| 5 | Nebraska | 0 |
| 6 | Houston | +4 Great wins over BYU and UCF |
| 7 | Illinois | 0 |
| 8 | Iowa State | +1 |
| 9 | Gonzaga | -3 L to Portland is a headscratcher |
| 10 | Michigan State | -2 |
| 11 | Saint Louis | +1 |
| 12 | Kansas | +3 |
| 13 | North Carolina | +7 Great win over Blue Devils |
| 14 | Purdue | -1 |
| 15 | Miami (OH) | +3 Probably their ceiling |
| 16 | Texas Tech | -5 L to Kansas |
| 17 | Virginia | +2 Is for lovers |
| 18 | Utah State | +5 1st in the best mountain conference, good win over NM |
| 19 | Saint Mary's | +2 Still hanging around, the earlier L to Santa Clara isn't so bad |
| 20 | Vanderbilt | -6 bad stretch |
| 21 | Alabama | NEW Best 7 loss team |
| 22 | Clemson | NEW |
| 23 | St. John's | NEW |
| 24 | Florida | 0 |
| 25 | BYU | -8 I still think they have potential, but it's waning, bad string of L's |
