| 4 | Tennessee | The ending on Saturday was fun |
| 5 | Alabama | Another week, another two top ten opponents for Bama |
| 6 | Florida | Still have a shot at a 1 seed |
| 7 | Michigan State | Defense steps up in last three minutes of every game it seems |
| 8 | St. John's | They don't shoot well, but boy can they defend |
| 9 | Texas A&M | Starting to fade... |
| 10 | Iowa State | Cannot lose to OK State like that |
| 11 | Wisconsin | Losing at MSU isn't a bad loss |
| 12 | Purdue | Strong win vs UCLA |

| 16 | Marquette | Two big ones to finish the regular season |
| 17 | Kentucky | Loss to Auburn isn't bad, but they just didn't look close |
