This is the AP Poll
Week 4. Lost a few points to the Whorns. But still #1.
Week 3. Not unanimous, but #1!!, But not expected. A soldid cushion over the #2 team
Week two: Move up to #2 seven more first place votes and 66 more points in the poll. Within shouting distance of UNC.
Week one: Picked up 35 points from the previous poll, Still #3. One more 1st place vote.
Here’s the USA Poll
I am cool with being a basketball school.

Football is king but the level of talent in bball maybe higher comparatively
“maybe”?
Football would easily be king too if our kids didn’t go out of state.
One moron had UH at #7……six teams better than Coogs? Dude needs to actually watch basketball or give up his vote.
In r/collegebasketball their user poll has UH as the number one team in the country with 44 first place votes
Lot of TX kids leave the state for bball too. I know football is a bit different but the high end talent in TX HS bball is really high.
Plus Arkansas at #9 and that’s 7/9 Southwest Conference teams in this poll 30 years after its breakup
Dude’s poll is all over the place
Not a lot of them, but most Texas basketball kids go out of state to college.

He had Creighton and Indiana ahead of us??? weirdo. Also, no one voted us #5 not a single person. So the one that voted us 6th and the one that voted us 7th are voting with some weird idea in mind. Perhaps just trying to be contrarian.
I’m cool at #3 knowing we’re better than NC & Gonzaga if they played each of them.
I think UK & Baylor may be better than both (NC/Gonzaga). Too early in the season, tho!
Kentucky with Wheeler is gonna be scary.
I think you’ll find, jiust like with our team, those Texas teams aren’t made up of all Texas players.
I am not sure if any of you have seen Creighton. Their starting four of Kaluma, Baylor Scheierman, Nembhard and Kalkbrenner is scary good. This wil be a great season with potential great matchups but I will be surprised if anyone else other then the list below gets the championship -
Houston, Gonzaga, North Carolina, Kentucky, Arkansas, Creighton, UCLA and then three teams outside looking in - Duke, Baylor, Kansas
I’m more sold on Baylor and Duke than crieghton and Arkansas. Creighton needs to show something before I believe in anything there.
Could be a special year, with Jim Nance retiring, the Final Four in Houston and the Coogs a top seed.
Just imagine how many of us will die when they do the biggest Coog’d It since 1983
