Overall Rationale
Dropped Out: Florida Atlantic (10), Arkansas (11), Michigan State (13), Southern California (16), Villanova (19), Texas (21) | Next 5: Texas, Villanova, Southern California, Brigham Young, Iowa | Texas is out for barely beating Louisville. Villanova misses out for losing to Penn and then Penn went on to lose to Maryland-Eastern Shore. Southern Cal is not ranked because of the loss to California-Irvine, but remains in the next 5 because of injuries that probably would've prevented the loss. Brigham Young misses because I think they will get trashed by an actual opponent (San Diego State doesn't win in Provo). Iowa impressed me against Creighton. Other considerations include Texas Christian, Oklahoma, San Diego State, Rutgers, and James Madison.
