NCAA Basketball Rankings - 4 Mar

Gonzaga made the biggest move within the top 25 this week, helped immensely by beating conference-leading Saint Mary's on the road to finish their regular season. Dayton is the newest top 25 team, having their best season since 2020, when covid prevented them from getting to play in March as a top seed. Here are my full current rankings:
