Very surprised to see Creighton still ranked. Nebraska beat them by double-digits last Saturday in Lincoln. Other than that, the rankings look good...i expect some major changes in the rankings after this week's action.
I'll be the first to admit, I completely underestimated Marquette and Freshman of the Year Canidate, Dominic James. I know Duke isn't the powerhouse team they were last season, but Marquette handled the Dukies throughout the game. I also like the upside of the Memphis team. They choked against GTech last night, but Memphis is loaded with athletic players and all of their starters can finish at the rim. If they can put it together mentally and play with more consistency, they'll be tough to beat. Unfortunately, they just couldn't handle GTech once the game became more physical in the paint. GTech killed them on the glass in the second half.

He played last year for them, he's a Super Sophomore
