NCAA Rankings, Christmas Edition
Bowl games are on, but I don't much care for them since Kotaku did a pretty bang up job of showing how we could have pretty sweet playoffs and bowls. This is going to become a regular feature in the new year, but I'm up early on Christmas morning (presents, biatch!), so my Christmas gift to y'all is your first NCAA hoops rankings of the season:
1.) Texas (11-0)
2.) Syracuse (12-0)
3.) Duke (9-1)
4.) West Virginia (9-0)
5.) Kansas State (11-1)
6.) Kansas (11-0)
7.) Purdue (11-0)
8.) Kentucky (13-0)
9.) Temple (9-2)
10.) Georgetown (9-1)
11.) Villanova (11-1)
12.) Clemson (11-2)
13.) Mississippi (10-2)
14.) North Carolina (9-3)
15.) Wisconsin (9-2)
16.) Brigham Young (12-1)
17.) UAB (11-1)
18.) New Mexico (12-1)
19.) Seton Hall (9-1)
20.) Connecticut (8-2)
21.) Ohio State (10-2)
22.) Old Dominion (8-4)
23.) California (6-4)
24.) Washington (8-2)
25.) Wake Forest (8-2)
I still see a 20-win team in Cal, whose four losses are all to teams on this list. I could also see Old Dominion sweeping the CAA (though something like 17-1 or 16-2 is more likely). Other than that, it's Christmas and I'm going to open presents. Make your own conclusions.
