College Basketball: On3’s Week 14 Top 25

We are well into conference play across the college basketball landscape. As expected, there has been some fluid movement each week among the top 25 teams in the country. No team is undefeated, and Auburn is the only one-loss program.

This week 14 college basketball top 25 saw four programs introduced to the list. UCLA and Creighton have both gone 5-0 over their last five while Maryland has gone 4-1. UConn has teetered right on the edge of the top 25 most of the season, and a win over No. 8 Marquette gets them back in. Programs in the SEC are going through the gauntlet with seven teams ranked in this top 25, and a handful of others just on the outskirts.

This list is how I see the twenty-five best teams in college basketball, after watching through the first 13 weeks of games. There is a long way to go in this college basketball season, and if the non-conference and early conference schedule is any indication, many twists and turns will surely happen along the way.
