Busting Brackets Power 32 Poll: Syracuse Keeps Rolling

Another week, another edition of the Power 32 Poll. And once again, there is no surprise at the top, as Syracuse is still undefeated.

But what about everyone else? Let’s get right to this week’s rankings!

1. Syracuse (20-0) – Still perfect, but two interesting road tests coming up against Notre Dame and Cincinnati.

2. Kentucky (18-1) – Struggled a little at Tennessee but bounced back with a dominant win against Arkansas. They host Alabama on Saturday.

3. Baylor (17-1) – Lost their first game of the season at Kansas and things won’t get any easier as they host Missouri this weekend.

4. Ohio State (16-3) – Got revenge on the Hoosiers and should have no trouble in their next two games (Nebraska and Penn State).

5. Missouri (17-1) – Could switch spots with Baylor with a win at the Ferrell Center on Saturday.

6. Duke (15-2) – Everyone is looking forward to the showdown with Florida State this weekend, especially considering what the Seminoles did to North Carolina.

7. Kansas (15-3) – At the top of the Big 12 right now with a trip to Texas on the horizon.

8. UNLV (16-3) – Suffered a tough loss at San Diego State, and gets TCU tonight for a meeting with New Mexico.

9. North Carolina (15-3) – How do the Tar Heels respond after the beatdown at Florida State? We’ll know tomorrow night when they visit Virginia Tech.

10. Georgetown (15-3) – Only one game this week, but it comes against a pesky Rutgers team.

13. Indiana (15-3) – Finally get a chance to feed on the bottom tier of the Big Ten after a tough schedule to start.

14. Creighton (16-2) – Clearly the class of the Missouri Valley along with Wichita State.

15. Murray St (18-0) – Although they are down this year, Morehead State could give them quite the test tonight.
