garretttt4's Week 2 Ballot
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Purdue | (0) Stays at #1. No reason to move them down. Had very impressive wins vs. Samford and Morehead State. Still the most balanced country in the team in my eyes. |
| 2 | Kansas | (0) On the same tier with Purdue. These two teams are so close to each other with Kansas getting the #2 slot. Very dominant wins vs NCC and Manhattan which keeps them in this position. |
| 3 | Creighton | (0) Dominant first couple of games as well keeping them in the 3 spot |
| 4 | UConn | (0) I am excited to see this teams first true test next Sunday vs Indiana. They played really well this week keeping them in the 4 spot |
| 5 | Tennessee | (0) Big win against Wisconsin this week. Would have moved up in my poll if the top 4 teams looked shaky. But they didn't so the Vols stay put for now. |
| 6 | Houston | (+2) I don't care who you play, beating a team 84-31 is impressive. Moved up 2 spots from my preseason poll have an impressive start |
