- Indiana (20-2, LW 4) - The Hoosiers came out strong against Michigan behind Cody Zeller's 19 points and 10 rebounds. All five starters scored in double-digits and they shot 52% from the floor as a team. This week they travel to Illinois and Ohio State.
- Florida (18-2, LW 3) - Florida has been a tear and just had a 14-point win over a ranked Ole Miss team. The SEC is struggling but the Gators are no joke and Patric Young is a beast.
- Michigan (20-2, LW 1) - As was the case in their first loss at Ohio State, Michigan started slow on the road but they were able to fight back to tie the game in the second half. But there is no rest in the Big Ten because tonight they host Ohio State then go to Wisconsin and Michigan State.
- Kansas (19-2, LW 2) - Kansas has flirted with a couple losses lately and they finally got one with Oklahoma State surprising them at home 85-80. The Jayhawks had 15 turnovers but couldn't stop Markel Brown's 28 points and he hit 7-10 from three.
- Gonzaga (21-2, LW 6) - The Zags were tested at San Diego but escaped with the win 65-53. Now they get an easy week at home be their a road test at St. Mary's
- Duke (19-2, LW 7) - Duke was able to get two road wins last week after dropping their first two games away from Cameron. They simply were on fire at Florida State shooting 61% from the field and connecting on 11-18 three point attempts. Duke will next get a rematch with NC State, who gave them their first loss of the season.
- Arizona (19-2, LW 8) - Arizona is quietly staying in the top 10 and now are tied atop the Pac-12 standings. They've gotten back on track winning their last three after losing to UCLA.
- Louisville (18-4, LW 9) - The Cardinals got back to their dominant ways beating Marquette 70-51 holding them to 36% shooting. We'll see if they can continue that with two road games this week at Rutgers and Notre Dame.
- Syracuse (18-3, LW 5) - Cuse dropped two straight but picked up a nice home win over Notre Dame 63-47. James Southerland continues to be out and the Orange are desperately missing his shooting.
- Miami FL (17-3, LW 13) - The Canes squeaked past NC State on the road as Reggie Johnson tip in a miss in the final seconds to pull off the 79-78 win. They have now won nine straight and have been provided a big lift with Johnson back in the lineup.
- Michigan State (18-4, LW 12) - Sparty bounced back from a loss to Indiana with an 80-75 win over Illinois. Keith Appling played his best game of the season going for 24 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists. They will now look to avenge a loss to Minnesota when the Gophers come to East Lansing.
- Ohio State (17-4, LW 14) - OSU might have the toughest week of the year for any team as they head to #3 Michigan then host #1 Indiana. Both games will be tough but if the Buckeyes can escape with one win that will prove they are a team that can challenge for a Big Ten title.
- Creighton (20-3, LW NR) - Doug McDermott continues to show why he is a player of the year candidate averaging 24 points and 7 boards.
- Butler (19-3, LW 10) - The Bulldogs were ran out of the gym in a 75-58 loss at Saint Louis as the Billikens forced 23 turnovers. Butler was able to rebound against Rhode Island and face two .500 teams this week.
- New Mexico (19-3, LW NR) - After only scoring 34 points at San Diego State, the Lobos won their next two. They still lead a good Mountain West Conference and have a tough test at UNLV this week.
