NCAA Basketball Rankings - 9 Feb

The biggest move in this week's rankings was made by the Houston Cougars, who beat potential tournament foes UCF and BYU this week, both by double digits, which moved Houston up from #11 to #7. Vanderbilt fell out of the top 10 to make room for the Cougars, due to their home loss to Oklahoma over the weekend. Here are my full current rankings:
