San Diego State's win at Kansas, which ended the Jayhawks' 68-game non-conference home winning streak, propelled the Aztecs into the top 10 this week, and they certainly look like they belong. They have only one loss so far, against #3 Arizona, and they've beaten 3 other teams ranked in the AP top 25. This team should expect a deep run into March Madness.

Louisiana Tech is now ranked #17 despite not receiving a single vote in either national poll, and it may be since they've lost to the only ranked team they've faced. That loss, however, was against top-ranked Oklahoma State, and they made up for it somewhat by beating Oklahoma in overtime this week.

Gonzaga has played a weaker schedule than usual this season, so it took them a while to make it to my top 25, but this week they crept in, helped along by their big win over Saint Mary's and Kansas State's upset of Oklahoma State, because the Wildcats are one of two teams to beat the Bulldogs this year as well.

Pick of the Day #58

Elon

You may remember the Phoenix as the team the Duke blew out last week, but they are a decent team that tonight gets to face Appalachian State, and the Mountaineers haven't beaten a Division I team all year, so this should be a reasonably safe pick.
