Top 5 II

#1 – Kansas Jayhawks

On a rematch of the NCAA championship game of two years ago, the result was the same. Huge win for the Jayhawks on neutral court in which they showed why they are the best team in the nation so far and which Aldrich showed why he’ll be a lottery pick in the NBA draft.

#2 – Michigan State Spartans

Tom Izzo and the Spartans remain undefeated after a week when they were tested by a very good Gonzaga team. Kalin Lucas has stepped up like we expected and lead the team in score.

#3 – Syracuse Orange

The Orange got the first title of the season. Jim Boeheim and Syracuse overcame all the questions that were raised about them, both coach, team and program, because of the loss against Les Moyne by winning the 2k9 Classic in which they beat California and North Carolina at MSG.

#4 – Kentucky Wildcats

The killer combination of John Wall and DeMarcus Cousins can be the key for the Wildcats moving on however so far they haven’t been tested. Calipari is 4-0 but the first test is a couple of weeks from now against the Tar Heels.

#5 – Texas Longhorns

The Longhorns defense has just been superb. Yes, they haven’t been tested yet but the expectations around this team are high.
