My CBBA Vote

When is the last time Duke lost two games in the same week? This crazy thing called March Madness is up and running full blast and it’s making it very difficult to put together a top 25 ballot. There will be an old #1 taking over this week with Uconn back on top of the rankings but Villanova might steal some of their thunder. In case you haven’t figured it out yet, The Big East is really good.

NC State and Michigan State are both gone this week and we have new arrivals Bucknell (22) and UAB (23) to thank for that. Colorado is barely hanging on. Most everyone has dropped them from their ballots but I stil think the Buffs could make some noise in the Conference Tournament.

Here is my vote.

1. Connecticut (3)
