NCAA Basketball Rankings - 31 Dec

Duke is easily the best team in the country still, but the hottest team of the week was Florida, who destroyed Butler this week 77-43, which boosted them up to an 8-seed in my latest bracket. Iowa, meanwhile, nearly lost a cupcake home game against Bryant, which dropped the Hawkeyes 15 spots in my rankings, though they are still safely in as a 9-seed at this point. 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.
