College Basketball Rankings - 20 Feb

Though this season has belonged to the undefeated Gonzaga Bulldogs, the past week belonged to North Carolina, who won consecutive games over NC State and Virginia by identical 24-point margins. The Cavaliers have been one of my top 10 teams all year, so the ease of the win was especially impressive, and it vaulted the Tar Heels up to #4 this week. Here are my full current rankings, with projected conference champs in bold, at-large teams underlined, and teams whose in/out status changed this week in italics:
