FitIndependence6187's Week 5 Ballot
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Arizona | Unquestionableble top team this week |
| 2 | Purdue | Even with the road loss they still have the second best resume so far this year. |
| 3 | Kansas | They jumped Houston after beating Uconn at home |
| 4 | Houston | Unbeaten but also untested. |
| 5 | UConn | Tough loss at a very difficult to play in arena. |
| 6 | Baylor | Unbeaten but SoS isn't the best. |
| 7 | Marquette | Picked up another tough loss, but still look like a top 10 team------------------------------ |
| 8 | Gonzaga | Beat USC at home, but USC isn't full strength and very unreliable. |
| 9 | BYU | Continueing to win, -most |
| 10 | Florida Atlantic | |
| 11 | North Carolina | |
| 12 | Colorado State | |
| 13 | Creighton | |
| 14 | Clemson | |
| 15 | Illinois | |
| 16 | Virginia | |
| 17 | Miami (FL) | |
| 18 | San Diego State | |
| 19 | James Madison | |
| 20 | Ohio State | |
| 21 | Kentucky | |
| 22 | Wisconsin | |
| 23 | Oklahoma | |
| 24 | Texas A&M | |
| 25 | Tennessee |
Overall Rationale
Heavily favored teams that are continueing to win. Solid 1 loss team will be polled higher than a "better looking" 2 or 3 loss team. Also taking current SoS into account using that criteria (300 ranked SoS thats unbeaten isn't getting ranked just for their record).
