uconnball17's Week 2 Ballot
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Duke | LW: 1 - don't see any reason to doubt them after a couple easy wins. big week |
| 2 | Florida | LW: 2 - Miami win was great, though more competitive than I thought it'd be |
| 3 | UConn | LW: 3 - should've beat Michigan by more, final score flattered the Wolverines |
| 4 | Illinois | LW: 4 - absurd scoring, worried about our matchup with them in Chicago |
| 5 | Virginia | LW: 10 - arguably most impressive W of the opening week |
| 6 | Houston | LW: 8 - ho hum, easy week (sorry Cal) |
| 7 | Michigan State | LW: 6 - Fears is obviously legit, but so is the frosh Jervis |
| 8 | Texas | LW: 9 - they beat poor Gardner-Webb by more than we did |
| 9 | Louisville | LW: 11 - that Memphis game this week is suddenly a lot more intriguing |
| 10 | Arizona | LW: 4 - tough way to start the season but they're still legit - need better guard play |
| 11 | Kansas | LW: 12 - gonna love rooting against them and AARP recipient TKR |
| 12 | Alabama | LW: 13 - the freshmen are pretty good, team will be even better if they ever learn how to play D |
| 13 | St. John's | LW: 14 - would've liked a bigger W against Monmouth but can't really knock it |
| 14 | Arkansas | LW: 7 - maybe I was off a little here, looked like boys against men against UVA |
| 15 | USC | LW: 16 - wish they were playing a tougher sched |
| 16 | Tennessee | LW: 17 - still trying to wash those exhibition results out of my mind |
| 17 | UCLA | LW: NR - big time W against 'Zona, Kusturica can play |
| 18 | Vanderbilt | LW: 19 - like Louisville, also has a now-spicy Memphis game this week |
| 19 | Gonzaga | LW: 20 - scared a bit they didn't beat a pretty down Purdue team by more |
| 20 | Michigan | LW: 15 - saw a lot of irredeemable qualities against UConn; Cadeau is a punk |
| 21 | Texas Tech | LW: NR - perhaps I overlooked them in preseason; we'll know after Tuesday |
| 22 | Indiana | LW: 21 - can't wait to see how much they beat 'Cuse by |
| 23 | Marquette | LW: 23 - looks a lot more like Marquette than they did last year |
| 24 | Kentucky | LW: 24 - shaky first half against JMU |
| 25 | Xavier | LW: 25 - decent test Friday against Mississippi State |
