Each week, a handful of us college hoops bloggers put together our own version of a Top 25 poll to make ourselves feel just a little more important (our tiny voices matter, too!). Here is what we have assessed, as a group, with any of the AP rankings that differ from any of ours for each team set in parentheses and first places votes in bold. Obviously, if there are no numbers in parentheses, then our rankings match the AP voters’. And for the sake of transparency here, almost all ballots are sent in before the release of the Coaches and AP polls on Monday.

1. Memphis–9–(2)
2. North Carolina–5–(1)
3. Kansas
4. Washington State
5. UCLA
6. Michigan State
7. Tennessee (8)
8. Duke (9)
