| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Duke | 1a |
| 2 | Michigan | 1b |
| 3 | Arizona | 1c |
| 4 | Florida | Would have dropped but 5 and 6 also lost |
| 5 | Houston | One of the top teams, just not as good as Arizona |
| 6 | UConn | Dog of a performance in the BET finals |
| 7 | Iowa State | Instant classic against Zona |
| 8 | Purdue | 5th most Q1 wins in the country |
| 9 | Michigan State | Strangely quiet top 10 team. Izzo run in March coming? |
| 10 | Illinois | Wisconsin was a buzzsaw |
| 11 | Nebraska | I still believe in Nebrasketball |
| 12 | Gonzaga | Not sure what to expect out of them this March |
| 13 | Virginia | Best team since 2019 |
| 14 | Kansas | Never know which version you'll get |
| 15 | Arkansas | Looked great in Nashville |
| 16 | Vanderbilt | Impressive win over Florida |
| 17 | Alabama | Not good in Nashville |
| 18 | Texas Tech | Injuries derailed a great season |
| 19 | St. John's | Great show in NYC |
| 20 | North Carolina | Injuries suck |
| 21 | Wisconsin | Scary team in March Madness |
| 22 | Tennessee | They kind of are what they are. Good, not great |
| 23 | BYU | I'd take AJ number 1 |
| 24 | Louisville | Weird for them and Miami to have to have played 5 days apart |
| 25 | Miami (FL) | They split the two matches |
