| 1 | Purdue | Best resume, part of me trusts UH more |
| 2 | Houston | We'll see how they look in conf play |
| 3 | Kansas | McCullar/Dickinson as good of a duo as there is |
| 4 | UConn | Worried for them without Clingan |
| 5 | Tennessee | All American Dalton Knecht |
| 6 | North Carolina | 2 massive road games this week |
| 7 | Marquette | Huge bounce back W against Creighton |
| 8 | Kentucky | Reeves is a stud, lack of defense is concerning |

| 20 | James Madison | SOS simply isn't there |
