February 24, 2014 · CSM Staff
| Rank | Team | Comments | Prior | |
| 1 |  |
Connecticut | Only three teams stand between the Huskies and a perfect regular season. But this team is aiming for more. | 1 |
| 2 |  |
Notre Dame | Following a 81-70 victory over Duke, Notre Dame has a couple more tough tests before the regular season ends. | 2 |
| 3 |  |
South Carolina | With a massive 81-58 win at Kentucky, South Carolina is looking unbeatable. Watch out Uconn and Notre Dame. | 3 |
| 4 |  |
Stanford | Stanford clinched another Pac-12 title. Now they will get revenge against UW for their one conference loss. | 4 |
| 5 |  |
Louisville | Louisville got past Rutgers and now all eyes are on the Connecticut game to close the regular season on March 3rd. | 5 |
| 6 |  |
Baylor | Baylor has a potentially interesting game against WVU on Sunday, but they beat them on the road by 16 earlier. | 7 |
| 7 |  |
Duke | Duke will, of course, finish up the regular season looking for revenge against North Carolina. | 6 |
| 8 |  |
Maryland | The Terps wrap up the regular season against BC and VT. That should provide momentum heading to the ACC tourney. | 8 |
| 9 |  |
Penn State | Penn State a big game on Monday against Nebraska. The Big Ten title is, for all practical purposes, on the line. | 9 |
| 10 |  |
Tennessee | Tennessee can finish strong with wins over LSU and South Carolina. But that’s easier said then done. | 11 |
| 11 |  |
West Virginia | West Virginia can make even more noise heading into the NCAAs if they can beat Baylor on Sunday. | 14 |
| 12 |  |
North Carolina | Maybe UNC was looking ahead to Notre Dame and Duke, but losing to Virginia Tech was not good. | 10 |
| 13 |  |
Kentucky | The Wildcats could get nothing going against South Carolina, but they did get a nice road win at Texas A&M. | 15 |
| 14 |  |
North Carolina State | North Carolina State will likely have the last chance to keep Notre Dame from going 16-0 in ACC play. | 16 |
| 15 |  |
Nebraska | If the Cornhuskers want a shot at the Big Ten title, they must defend their home floor against Penn State. | 20 |
