Mills_Miles's Week Pre-Season Ballot
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | UConn | Some new faces here, but Hurley remains. Can't deny the results |
| 2 | Kansas | Kansas close right behind them |
| 3 | Houston | |
| 4 | North Carolina | |
| 5 | Duke | |
| 6 | Iowa State | |
| 7 | Alabama | Feel like the top 7 here is solid and tight together. After that its a bit of a mess |
| 8 | Baylor | |
| 9 | Gonzaga | |
| 10 | Marquette | |
| 11 | Auburn | |
| 12 | Tennessee | |
| 13 | Purdue | |
| 14 | Rutgers | Time for Steve to prove himself. I trust him to get the job done (unbiased) with a decent supporting cast around the big two |
| 15 | Creighton | |
| 16 | Arizona | |
| 17 | Arkansas | Welcome Coach Cal! I see another round of 32 loss in your future! |
| 18 | UCLA | |
| 19 | Texas | |
| 20 | Indiana | |
| 21 | Texas A&M | |
| 22 | Kentucky | I don't see Mark Pope working out long term, but they still got the high end talent |
| 23 | Illinois | |
| 24 | Miami (FL) | |
| 25 | Saint Mary's | When Gonzaga leaves, will St Mary's fall back down? I feel like spite is where most of their fuel comes from |
Overall Rationale
I won't lie, this is the most unsure ive felt with a preseason ballot. Im expecting a lot of week 3 movement here
