Seeing as how the first college basketball games are exactly three weeks away, and we haven’t written a single post about NCAA basketball, I figured I should put one up. I first must admit that by no standards have I done a good job of following college basketball during the offseason. So try not to be too harsh in your judgement. I did do some research, and looked up some other people’s preseason top 25s. Because of this lack of knowledge and confidence in my own rankings, I’m not going to be providing comments or reasoning like I do with my NCAA football rankings, at least not for these preseason ones. Once the season gets underway, and I feel that I have comments interesting enough to share, then I’ll start including them. Until then, you get this:

[…] there’s the NFL Draft itself to look forward to. So even though you might get a half hearted prediction or two from me about college basketball, they’re really just shots in the dark when I feel […]
Just to throw it out there… my preseason top 4 teams are the four teams that just got 1-seeds in the tournament.
