The Bears continue to dominate the Big 12 and they’ll hope to find revenge for falling to Texas A&M last March. |
1 |
| 2 |  |
Notre Dame | The Fighting Irish have not been in a close game for a while now and they may not be for another few weeks. |
2 |
| 3 |  |
Connecticut | Uconn went to Duke and it was not even close. They also beat Rutgers handily. Two more ranked opponents await. |
5 |
| 4 |  |
Stanford | Stanford had a good trip to the desert, but now host the surging LA schools who are playing pretty well right now. |
3 |
| 5 |  |
Miami | Miami has a couple big tests this week. The Canes host UNC on Wednesday and head to Maryland on Sunday. |
8 |
| 6 |  |
Kentucky | Kentucky lost a tough road game at LSU and have to hit the road twice this week to play Tennessee and Alabama. |
4 |
| 7 |  |
Duke | Duke lost bad to Connecticut last Monday. This Monday they play host to rival North Carolina. | 6 |
| 8 |  |
Tennessee | The Lady Vols do not lose at home very often, but they did to USC. Kentucky will look to make it two in a row. | 7 |
| 9 |  |
Ohio State | Ohio State had some time to think about their loss at Minnesota. They are back in action Monday against UW. | 9 |
| 10 |  |
Georgetown | Georgetown can make a huge statement if they can go to Storrs and knock off the Huskies this weekend. |
11 |
| 11 |  |
Green Bay | The Phoenix have to face Detroit and Wright State this week, but they already beat them on the road swing. |
12 |
| 12 |  |
Delaware | The Fightin’ Blue Hens keep rolling with superstar Elena Delle Donne and nobody in the CAA should beat this team. |
13 |
| 13 |  |
Nebraska | It took three overtimes, but Nebraska beat Purdue on the road. Now the Cornhuskers are thinking title. |
19 |
| 14 |  |
Penn State | Penn State rebounded nicely from their loss to Michigan State in late January with a couple wins last week. |
18 |
| 15 |  |
Texas A&M | The Aggies helped Texas Tech continue their slide down the conference standings, but they go to Waco this week. |
17 |
| 16 |  |
Purdue | Purdue lost a tough game to Nebraska in triple overtime. It won’t get any easier this week with a trip to Columbus. | 16 |
| 17 |  |
Louisville | It was a tough week for Louisville who fell to DePaul and WVU and it will not get any easier with Uconn next. |
10 |
| 18 |  |
Maryland | Maryland was stunned at home by VT last week. With GT and Miami on the schedule, the Terps could slide. | 14 |
| 19 |  |
Gonzaga | Gonzaga has a tough road trip to BYU on Thursday night. That matchup could go a long way in deciding the WCC champ. |
20 |
| 20 |  |
Rutgers | Nobody expected Rutgers to beat Notre or Connecticut last week, but it would have been nice to keep it close. |
15 |
| 21 |  |
Georgia | Georgia gets most of this week off and has an interesting game this weekend against Vanderbilt. |
21 |
| 22 |  |
Vanderbilt | Vanderbilt got a couple nice road wins last week, but playing UT and UGA could knock them down the standings. |
23 |
| 23 |  |
North Carolina | North Carolina got a nice win over Virginia on Friday, but this week’s slate of games is brutal. |
24 |
| 24 |  |
Georgia Tech | Georgia Tech has a tough game against Maryland on Monday and another a road trip to UNC over the weekend. |
25 |
| 25 |  |
South Carolina | The Gamecocks got their signature win of the season at Tennessee, but a tricky game at Arkansas is next. |
