It’s a new week, so here’s a new poll. Here’s the February 5, 2007 edition of “Chorizo’s College Basketball Top Teams (I had to change the name; there are 17 teams now). As of February 4, 2007
Team AP Rank Points Previous Record Wisconsin 4 1 71*a 1 22-2 Florida 1 2 69 2 21-2 UCLA 2 3 62*b 5 20-3 Ohio State 3 4 61*d 3 20-3 Butler 10 5 61*d 4 22-2 Nevada 12 6 56 7 21-2 Memphis 8 7 55 8 19-3 Texas A&M 6 8 54 10 19-3 North Carolina 5 9 51 6 20-3 Pittsburgh 7 10 48*e 11 19-3 Kansas 9 11 48*e 9 19-4 Marquette 11 12 44*f 13 20-4 Air Force 15 13 44*f Unranked 20-3 Oregon 13 14 41*b, g 12 19-4 Washington State 14 15 41*g Unranked 19-4 Oklahoma State 17 16 28 15 18-4 Duke 16 17 27*c 14 18-5
a- Wisconsin is still #1. That’s what my formula says. And NO, I have not changed it since I came out with the 1st poll. b- UCLA and Oregon received two points each for defeating Oklahoma State. When teams enter the AP Top 15, all games are accounted for. If teams leave the AP Top 15, their games will stay. c- Duke received two points for defeating Air Force. Also, see note in letter b. d- Tie went to Ohio State for better AP rank. e- Tie went to Pittsburgh for better AP rank. f- Tie went to Marquette for better AP rank. g- Tie went to Oregon for better AP rank.
Ok. North Carolina lost today (YAY!!!!!), and Wisconsin won today (DOUBLE YAY!!!!!). Now that the standings really changed, let's take another look at my poll!
Notes-Florida gained ground on Wisconsin. -For WIsconsin, Butler, and Duke, all games now have the x4 multiplier for going onto their 25th game. -Wisconsin will be no worse than 4 in next week's AP Poll.
