Created my own little scoring system that went:

+1.5 for Q1A win
+1.0 for Q1 win
+0.5 for Q2 win
-0.5 for Q1A loss
-1.0 for Q1 loss
-1.5 for Q2 loss

Here are the top 8 teams right now based on that criteria:

1. Duke — 13.0
2. Arizona — 13.0
3. Michigan — 11.5
4. Connecticut — 11.0
5. Nebraska — 10.0
6. Illinois — 9.5
7. Iowa State — 7.5
8. Vanderbilt — 7.0

So yeah, #6 sounds about right.

I also want to note that if Illinois keeps winning, they'll end up in the top 4 anyway, as even if Duke and UConn win out, only one of Arizona/Iowa State/Houston can win out and Michigan and Nebraska take those losses, and I don't think an SEC team passes them, even if Florida starts beating everyone by 30.

EDIT: And Gonzaga's resume will continue to crater, as shown in the T-Rank chart above.

Mam, there's a lot.of REALLY GOOD teams this year. Like an obscene amount of head toppers.

1 seeds are Arizona, Duke, best B1G team, and UConn. If UConn slips up even once, it opens the door for the B1G or B12's 2nd best team.
