College Basketball Rankings - 3 Mar

Arizona is the #1 team once again this week after dominating two bubble teams while running their record to 27-2 in the 4th-toughest conference in the land. Only two other teams have 2 or fewer losses, and both (Wichita State and Florida) play in weaker conferences than the Wildcats, so the top team is pretty easy to pick. Here are this week's full rankings, with conference leaders in bold, at-large teams underlined, and teams that fell out or climbed into the tournament picture in italics.

The Florida Gators have won 21 games in a row, which is why they are #1 in the AP poll, but their strength of schedule is much weaker than Arizona's, which is why they are just inside the top 10 instead of occupying the top spot. That's not to say they aren't one of the best teams in the country and that they won't make the Final Four, but the schedule hasn't allowed us to see how good they really are.

Gonzaga finished the regular season on Saturday with a blowout of their chief rival, the Saint Mary's Gaels, which moved them into the top 25 after a week away following 2 road losses the week before. They are the obvious favorites entering the conference tournament, but BYU is pretty strong as well, and St. Mary's and San Francisco could also make some noise.

Xavier's upset of Creighton on Saturday moved them to the good side of the bubble, which would give the Big East 4 tournament teams, but they are still living right on the edge, so they can't slip up at Seton Hall and they may need to either upset Villanova or make a deep run in the conference tournament to ensure their spot. For now, the Musketeers are in.

Pick of the Day #113

Morgan State

The Bears host Florida A&M tonight, and both teams have similar overall records, but Morgan State is a far better team overall, and they get to play at home, so I'm taking them in this one.
