Weekly Top 10 Says What The Hell is Going on out There?

10. Purdue: Once again, Purdue is my Big 14 rep. Weird losses abound but they also have the best wins in league, including a big win at Maryland yesterday. A coin flip between them and Bucky.

9. Oregon: My lone Pac-12 team had the year's most impressive beat down yesterday as the absolutely jackhammered Arizona. You haven't seen a beat down like than since Sonny Corleone against Carlo.

8. Baylor: Think it was Rob Dauster that made this interesting observation about Baylor yesterday, we didn't know if they were offensively strong enough to mount a big game comeback. They did and should have forced overtime but Johnathan Motley missed a shot he probably makes 99% of the time. Big XII is bananas.

7. Kansas: Sell, sell, sell.  Just not good enough defensively. They'll win the league because everyone else is beating each other but don't get sucked in by them in March.

6. Florida: Buy, buy, buy. Top ten defense, top 20 offense. Michael White making his mark. Kentucky is actually going to have to work for a SEC title.

5. Kentucky: Have lost 3 of 4. They needed overtime to win at home against Georgia in that stretch. They'll be favored the rest of the way out but are they in a funk or just not that great a team. Let's see how they respond.

4. North Carolina: They lead the best league in the nation and have a +398 scoring differential. Carolina is weirdly under the radar. Like Kansas, the defense is shaky. 

3. Villanova: Have no equal in league play. Waiting for March.

2. Louisville: Earlier, I was convinced Louisville simply didn't have enough offense to win in March. Well, the offense had been spectacular the last 3 weeks. Big game against the evil Virginia squad tomorrow night. Virginia has been a problem for them.

1. Gonzaga: 4th in both offensive and defensive efficiency after yesterday. They're the best team in the nation right now.
