Just like yours, some hits, some misses. Big negative surprise is Mississippi State (whom I'm watching get dismantled by Arkansas now), A&M a positive surprise.

To whoever is the only other BYer who had UConn #1 on the first few lists(assuming it was the same person) - kudos to you!

As of last Monday, before the UConn vs South Carolina game...seemed pretty good.

#4 Baylor turned out to be a Lamb...not a Bear, still in the #7-#9 range though.
#6 Miss State, what a disappointment.
#8 NC State not too far out from my poll, currently at #4 & #6.
#13 Texas A&M...currently residing at #6 (AP Poll) and #5 (Coaches)
#15 Iowa State and #22 Notre Dame...missing in action.
#23 Syracuse, they have been in and out of the poll.
#25 Michigan, currently at #12 in both polls, much better than my preseason poll.

1. Stanford
2. South Carolina
3. UConn
4. Maryland
5. Baylor
6. Louisville
7. North Carolina St
8. Arizona
9. Oregon
10. UCLA
11. Arkansas
12. Kentucky
13. Mississippi State
14. Texas A&M
15. Indiana

18. Iowa State
19. Gonzaga
20. Ohio State

25. Tennessee

Unlike most, I figured Mississippi State to have a new coach drop-off to SEC 4/5 but less than the actual drop-off

Interesting that no one, so far, had Tennessee in their top 24.

I considered them a fringe team and gave them the benefit of the doubt at #25 thinking that they could reduce turnovers some.
