Chemistry looked good for majoetiry of their game against Miami and they were able to hold them off
2
Duke
Absolutely dominated their first 2 games but played some pretty weak opponents. we should really know what they're made of soon as 4/6 of their next games come against top 10 teams
3
Illinois
Their offense looks damn near unstoppable in the first 2 games
4
UConn
Good win vs. a respectable Michigan team.
5
Michigan State
Fears Jr looks just as good as he did last year
6
Virginia
Looked dominant and balanced against an Arkansas team that I had thought wouldve given thema lot more trouble
7
Houston
Unlike a typical Kelvin Sampson team, this team seems to have high amounts of offensive production. I expect the defense will still be tough and the added scoring should be huge
8
Texas
They looked good in the first 2 games but they also played some of the weaker mid-major teams
9
Louisville
Looked a little shaky in their game against Chattanooga, but smothered Morehead St. They'll need to keep their level of play at its best as they have a brutal slate coming up the next 3 weeks
10
Kansas
With TKR being cleared to play Kansas looks pretty elite. I think Stokes needs a little more time to get into into full-form, but he's progressing faster than I thought.
11
UCLA
They followed up their impressive win v Arizona with a dominant win over North Florida. a lot of depth
12
St. John's
They've got a lot of depth and looked very comfortable in both their games
13
Arizona
Losing Godfrey is almost as ig as losing to UCLA. Kharchenkov had a massive game and if Holt or Krivas can do more to support him this will be an elite team
14
Tennessee
The game of Wofford wasn't spectacular for me. They won by 30 but they had some bad turnovers. Brown and Hill looked good but everyone else seemed a little stagnant
15
Gonzaga
A neutral-site win against a Matt Painter-led team is always impressive (even if that team lost to Valparaiso).
16
Texas Tech
Cruz Davis is looking like an amazing pick-up from the transfer portal
17
Miami (FL)
Despite the loss, the hurricanes played well against the preseason #1. If they can get improve the 3 shooting this will be an elite team
18
Arkansas
UVA went on a run and Arkansas was never able to recover. They need to take better care of the ball (UVA had 11 steals)
19
Vanderbilt
Tyler Tanner is looking like an elite player and it seems like he'll have a bigger impact in the paint then he did last year
20
Baylor
The Mingo brothers are playing extremely well together. Both of their wins have come in dominant fashion
21
Memphis
Good win against Iowa St. and very tough win against a promising VCU team
22
Iowa State
Horrible shooting night for Iowa St. against Memphis. Lipsey looked like a shell of himself. Looked better against Southern Miss and they should have realtive ease making it through the non-conference
23
BYU
Double digit win against whats expected to be a top-half big 10 team for your first win is a good way to start the season
