College Basketball Rankings - 15 Jan

For the second week in a row, every top 25 team changed positions in the rankings, with the exception of #1 Villanova. This week's hot team is Ohio State, who debuted in the top 25 last week after upsetting Michigan State, then followed it this week with two straight 22-point wins, one against Maryland, who is currently projected to be playing in March. The Buckeyes are now just outside the top 10, and are one of two Big 10 teams still undefeated in conference play. Here are my full current rankings, with projected conference champs in bold, at-large teams underlined, and teams whose in/out status changed in italics:
