| 9 |  Arkansas | as is kinda common early year big jumps from great tourney winners (or near winners) |

| 19 |  Baylor | its either in a great tourney or play no namers I guess? |
| 20 |  North Carolina | giant drop, they have looked iffy kinda so far and finally lost. honestly this is probably waay to far, and the loss vs alabama is basically a tie 4ot |
| 21 |  Auburn | |
| 22 |  UCLA | |
