In case you missed it, Sports Illustrated published a ‘way too early’ projection ranking of the top NCAA Basketball teams from around the Nation in April. Arizona came in at No. 9 and Oregon at No. 4 Rounding off their top 5 with Duke No. 1, Kansas No, 2, Villanova No. 3, and Kentucky No.5. The rankings will probably upset some Wildcats fans, but they could be plausible.
Note: this ranking was made prior to Terence Ferguson’s decision to play in Australia.
Oregon was able to retain some keys pieces from last years PAC-12 Conference Winning team.
