RagingLasagna's Week Post-Season Ballot

RankTeamReason
1 UConn National Champions. Hawkins is such a bucket
2 San Diego State National Runner-Up
3Florida Atlantic Most wins in the country
4 Miami (FL) Shoutout Coach L
5 Texas Most complete Elite 8 loser. Glad they hired Terry, should be a fun program to watch develop
6Creighton That was the right call, but that game deserves overtime. I'm really gonna miss this team
7 Kansas State Markquis Nowell - Mr. NYC (except for those few really bad logo pulls and passing at the end of the game when they need a bucket. s/o Lil' Baby)
8 Gonzaga Losing to the national champions? Not bad. Getting absolutely run out of the gym? Bad.
9UCLA Truly believed if they were healthy, Mick Cronin is going to concerts with that net around his neck
10Alabama Brandon Miller should've really tried to put the ball in the hoop. Nate Oats also vaulting to the top of the "I'm so smart I'm dumb" power rankings
11 Houston This team had all the makings and still couldn't make it happen
12 Xavier Are they back for good?
13Michigan State Izzo is a phenomenal coach. But we need to slow our roll just a little with all the Minister of March talk. This was his 2nd Sweet 16 in 8 years
14 Arkansas Proved to be the superior -kansas school
15Tennessee Just a gross, gross team, but they did knock out Duke
16 Princeton By far the worst Sweet 16 team, but hell of a run. We love the Ivy schools around here
17 Kansas Glad to hear Self is going to be okay
18 Duke Will be interesting to see how this team looks year after year without the Mr. K influence
19 Marquette I really want to see Shaka succeed. Hope this is the long-term right fit for him
20Saint Mary's I don't think I watched one Saint Mary's game all year, but sources told me they were good, but did not make the Sweet 16
21 Baylor Scott Drew is a good coach
22 TCU Unfortunately I think Brian Dutcher passed Dixon for king of whatever they call that hairstyle
23 Penn State I can't believe Andrew Funk gave Buzz Williams that WERK
24 Auburn Bruce Pearl - reddest coach in the country
25 Fairleigh Dickinson They deserve this one point vote
