Here's how I ranked 'em this week. Had to rank Michigan State over Ohio State and Duke over North Carolina. Moved red-hot Louisville way up from No. 23 to 14. Are they that good? Cards have only beat one ranked team this year, and that 30-point loss at Providence still sticks out, but they have won six straight, including last Monday's whitewash of UConn. We'll learn more about the 'Ville Monday night vs. Syracuse.

Booted out free-falling Creighton, Harvard (lost to Princeton) and Virginia. Welcomed in Wichita State, Michigan (some would say belatedly) and St. Louis. Yeah, I want to give the A-10 some love. Vastly improved, underrated conference.
