lukedux's Week 2 Ballot

RankTeamReason
1 Florida Good win against a team expected to be good, nice blow out as well
2 Duke Feasted on their cupcakes
3Illinois Also feasted on their cupcakes, offfense is looking legit
4 Michigan State Solid blowout wins
5 Virginia Looks elite, unfortunately
6Houston Held off a feisty Cal team
7 UConn Good win against a Michigan team that seems to be still finding itself
8 Texas Curb stomped some awful teams. At least they were D1
9Kansas Looked a lot better against MTSU than against Fordham, who honestly hung around longer than the scoreboard suggests
10Tennessee Lower than I had them last week just by virtue of only playing one game and otehr teams looking impressive.
11 Nebraska Solid win against Providence
12 Louisville Wasn't impressed against Chatanooga, but bounced back and dominated Morehead
13Texas Tech Didn't look great against Bethune Cookman
14 Gonzaga The win against Purdue might not end up being very impressive
15Miami (FL) Played Florida very close
16 UCLA Great win over Arizona
17 Saint Louis They look like the top class team of the a10
18 USC Wichita State gave them trouble, but I think they will be a problem in the American
19 Memphis Two of the most impressive wins, and their schedule is not getting any easier
20Arizona Will definitely come back up the rankings, Cal Poly is sneaky good and UCLAi is great as well
21 BYU Good win against OSU, prob deserve to be higher
22 Vanderbilt Strong win over Wake
23 St. John's Begrudingly, may be good. I still don't like Keyshawn Hall and have no faith in this team as a legit contender
24 Kentucky Did not look elite against a sneaky JMU
25 Texas A&M–Commerce Giving the deserved respect for two road wins, one over an SEC team
