Week 15 College Basketball Rankings

 Week 15

Quick disclaimer - I did not make my rankings based off of last week’s AP Poll, instead comparing all teams without ranking in mind. I included “previous” as a reference, and though it is the AP Poll this week, in coming weeks, it will be my rankings’ previous week. So, if you see Kansas State went up despite losing to Texas Tech, don’t be confused, as I started there rankings from the beginning to the end of the season.
