Less than two weeks from Selection Sunday, the week that was in college basketball centered not on bubble teams or 1-seeds, but on off-court issues. Wiretaps, allegedly paying players, agent involvement. But the selection committee won't really take that too heavily into account, besides its impact on a few select teams with players and/or coaches sitting out. So let's put that to the side for now as we check in on the penultimate power rankings of the season.
Villanova lost its third game in two weeks on Saturday to Creighton, bringing into focus an interesting storyline at the top of the bracket.
