| Rank | Team | Reason | 
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Purdue | +1 not even jersey may be able to stop this team | 
| 2 | Arizona | -1 maybe they win if they play purdue at home | 
| 3 | UConn | +1 when will we get uconn vs purdue? | 
| 4 | Kansas | -1 Uconns win over zaga was better than the win over indiana | 
| 5 | Oklahoma | definitley too high, but nobody else has a great claim to being a top 5 team right now anyway | 
| 6 | Houston | +1 ugly ugly ugly game against A&M. thin ice | 
| 7 | Marquette | +2 inheriting spots but definitely a top 10 team still | 
| 8 | Creighton | +2 inheriting spots but also a solid win over bama | 
| 9 | Kentucky | +5 this is the most kentucky team kentucky has had a bit. | 
| 10 | North Carolina | -2 not gonna punish them too much for losing @ rupp to a top 10 kentucky team | 
| 11 | Tennessee | +2 inheriting spots | 
| 12 | Illinois | +2 inheriting spots | 
| 13 | Florida Atlantic | +2 inheriting spots | 
| 14 | Clemson | -3 no shame in losing to memphis but a lot of folks are assuming clemson is fools gold for now | 
| 15 | Baylor | -9 maybe they should be dropped more because they got demolished by MSU. There's bad nights and then theres whatever that was | 
| 16 | Gonzaga | -4 I'm treating the uconn loss as basically a home game for zaga. | 
| 17 | Auburn | +1 i like this auburn team. I'm telling yall to watch out | 
| 18 | Virginia | -1 gonna be a spoiler team this year | 
| 19 | James Madison | staying steady | 
| 20 | Wisconsin | not punishing them for losing to top 5 arizona on the road. | 
| 21 | Colorado State | nothing big either way | 
| 22 | Duke | +3 here's hoping duke just had one bad week | 
| 23 | BYU | -1 still dont know how legit this team is | 
| 24 | Texas | -1 | 
| 25 | San Diego State | -1 I just wanted to move duke up really | 
1-4 is right. 5-10 is really a free for all. After 10, there isn't really a lot of separation between teams.
