Their offense looked damn near unstoppable in their matchup against Tennessee
2
Florida
Alex Condon and Thomas Haugh should be able to anchor this team and return their successes from the past 2 seasons
3
UConn
They looked very strong in their matchup against Michigan St.
4
Illinois
The addition of Quentin Coleman is huge for an Illinois team that is keeping a lot of their veteran scorers from last season
5
Arizona
The limbo that Arizona is in with Godfrey puts them in a bit of a precarious spot. Either way Tommy Lloyd has a respectable team that should be able to play at an elite level
6
Louisville
Going into Allen Fieldhouse and beating Kansas is highly respectable, even if just an exhibition game.
7
Michigan State
A close loss to UConn is nothing to scoff at. While the offense looked a little stuck at times, the talent is there.
8
Houston
Despite NIL difficulties, Kelin Sampson has been able to put together elite teams year after year, and this roster looks ready to play at an elite level
9
Virginia
The return of Thijs de Ridder is huge for UVA and should help spread the defense with his ability to hit the 3
10
Texas
Texas seems to have the talent for a deep run in march if the team is finally able to play well together
11
Tennessee
Their defense did not look great in their matchup with Duke, but i expect.a Rick Barnes team to have their defense sured up by conference play
