JG Poll: Feb. 20-26

Here is my new JG Top 25:

1. Villanova
2. Duke
3. UConn
4. Memphis
5. Gonzaga
6. Illinois
7. Texas
8. Pitt
9. Tennessee
10. George Washington
11. Ohio State
12. NC State
13. Kansas
14. West Virginia
15. Washington
16. Florida
17. UCLA
18. BC
19. Iowa
20. Oklahoma
21. Michigan State
22. LSU
23. George Mason
24. Nevada
25. Northern Iowa

I don't think North Carolina is worthy of a ranking. I think Boston College is still garbage and will lose in either the first or second round of the tournament regardless of their seed. Florida dropped because they haven't played well lately. Georgetown played themselves out of the rankings with three straight losses.

George Mason played well on the road and earned a ranking. Nevada is a very good team that will cause trouble in the tournament. Northern Iowa is ranked here because there is no one else to put in that 25th spot. They barely beat Bucknell at home, and it took a crafty clock operator to give them the chance to win.

Tune in later today for my picks of the week.
