UCLA and Wisconsin are playing as well as anyone right now...Arizona arguably has the best starting five in the country...UNC is the most loaded, but I question how they will hold up on the road vs. quality opponents...Duke is down, but still plays good D (plus they own the refs)...Clemson is a team to keep your eye on, pretty talented group...so is Nevada...they are a good road team and could be a sweet sixteen team...Wichita St. is struggling a little right now, but at the end of the year they are a potential final four team...Butler's pretty legit...Marquette, Memphis and Washington are frauds...Oklahoma St. and Notre Dame are teams that will be creeping their way up in the polls as the season goes on as well...Air Force can give people fits, just hard for them to match up against the truly talented squads...should be an interesting remaining 11 weeks leading up to the NCAA tourney...

Now that Uconn has to actually go out on the road and play, lets see what there really made of. I personally feel there a little overrated based who they have played this year.

I agree, I think they will be exposed once they finally hit the road.
