Utah! That's fun

Still not exactly sure what teams like Kentucky or Oregon have proven but I guess they have to go somewhere.

[knapplc]

This is an outrage.

[NYCHusker]

My ballot this week:

1 Pittsburgh
2 Nebraska
3 Penn State
4 Stanford
5 Creighton
6 Kansas
7 Louisville
8 Georgia Tech
9 Texas
10 Wisconsin
11 Oregon
12 Purdue
13 Arizona St
14 TCU
15 Florida
16 Florida State
17 Baylor
18 Minnesota
19 Kentucky
20 Washington
21 USC
22 Dayton
23 SMU
24 Auburn
25 BYU

I regret having Stanford below Penn State after looking at the data a little more, but it's still early in the season.

[BigDigEnergy]

Kentucky has been losing and still staying at #12!

[vbprisoner]

hold

[hornshouse23]

A #1 for Stanford is clinically insane

[herecomesthebusboom]

Why is Louisville being ranked below Creighton when they won the H2H?

I’d swap them for 5 and 6, but I think the Top 4 is right.

[bruinsgold]

1. Pittsburgh
2. Penn State
3. Nebraska
4. Stanford
5. Louisville
6. Creighton
7. Wisconsin
8. Kansas
9. Texas
10. Oregon
11. Georgia Tech
12. Arizona State
13. Kentucky
14. TCU
15. USC
16. Florida
17. Minnesota
18. Dayton
19. SMU
20. Purdue
21. Miami (FL)
22. Baylor
23. Texas A&M
24. Washington
25. Tennessee

Somehow Miami got on there instead of Florida State, but other than that—I apologize for nothing!

I can speak for me and me alone. I have credit to creighton for surviving a brutal weekend, while Louisville fell flat, so blame it on recency bias. Plus the win over creighton was basically a 5 set draw, so with that razor thin margin, I gave it to creighton.
