Here is the Week 14 Basketball BlogPoll. I have been somewhat remiss in posting this again.
We will see some big changes when the new poll comes out later this week due to Duke losing and Memphis barely escaping. Tennessee is very likely to wind up in the top two, although I don't think the Vols are quite that good. But that's how rankings go.
Vanderbilt made it back into the poll this week, and I suspect they will rise significantly after the events of last week. I also expect Louisville to move up the rankings quite a bit in the upcoming poll, as well as Purdue. Purdue is playing some outstanding basketball right now. Also, expect Georgetown to take a dive.
The public spreadsheet is here so you can see how everyone voted. Comments and observations, as usual, are welcome.
