College Basketball Rankings - 18 Jan

Last week, Kansas was the AP #1 team and was ranked at the top by nearly half of the ranking systems in Massey's College Basketball Ranking Composite, while West Virginia was ranked at the top by exactly one ranking system, which happens to be mine. When the Jayhawks faced off with the Mountaineers last week, many were surprised by the upset win, but I wasn't one of them. Even though West Virginia lost to Oklahoma later in the week, they proved enough to keep them firmly at the top this week. Here are my full rankings:
