Welcome back to THE Basketball Poll©.  Because I had a low turnout, I've decided again to revamp the formula.

There will be three polls this year. (AP Poll, Coaches Poll, CIP [Chorizo Interactive Poll])

For the ranking, the votes for the AP and Coaches Poll are divided by the maximum possible (1800 AP, 775 Coaches).  For the CIP, the points are divided by the one school with the most (IE: NC has 73, [73/73] Wisconsin has 44 [44/73])

The three percentages are then averaged, thus giving us our ranking.

Also, the CIP has been updated this year.
The points recieved from the AP Ranking is now removed.
Each Poll win (Defeating a team from either Top 25) received 5 points (2 last year)

Finally, here is the first edition of THE Basketball Poll©.

Florida lost.  Oh Sob, Oh Cry.
Hey, Wisconsin wi'll be the first team in a while to lose and still keep the #1 spot.  Yay.

We won today, and the Tar Heels lost, yet I am sure we will not be number one, while my heart wants it to happen.  Why?  Let's see the Top 10 Reasons.

6.  Everybody knows they don't play anyone good.
5.  Longest winning streak in the nation, Number 3 in the polls?  How 'bout dem Tar Heels?
4.  It's the Midwest bias.
