17. Butler Bulldogs

Previously Ranked: 23

Record: 8-0

Butler has looked increasingly dominant during their climb into the top 25. They boast wins over Arizona and at Utah. They’ll have battles on their hands in the next two weeks when they host in-state Cincinnati and Indiana.

Kelan Martin is still the star in Indianapolis, as he is averaging 18.1 points and 4.3 boards per game. Forwards Andrew Chrabascz and Tyler Wideman are both pulling down 5.6 boards a game, along with combining for nearly 19 points. Tyler Lewis is the final player to mention here, as he averages 7.9 points and 5.3 assists per game, while shooting 43 percent from deep. The Bulldogs will be uber competitive in the Big East.
