Final Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (4/4/17)

If you're like us, you spend much of March focusing on the winners and losers in the NCAA Tournament. Or heck, even the NIT. But, to be sure, the real winners in college basketball are those players chosen in the NBA Draft. With that in mind, for our final rankings of the 2016-17 season, we'll […]

Midwest Region Overview: Tournament Picks & Bracket Predictions

March Madness is officially here and RotoBaller will be giving a full breakdown on each tournament region, including some potential sleepers and busts. Here we'll be taking a look at the Midwest Region. I'm here to tell you some teams that I believe in - this should help you make the right tournament bracket decisions. Below I analyze the top […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (3/6/17)

It's almost tournament time. In our final rankings of the regular season, you won't see much change from last week. But change surely will come. That's our only prediction. Here are our CBB rankings for the week of March 6th (won-loss records in parentheses).   NCAA College Basketball (CBB) Rankings 1. Kansas, (28-3) The Jayhawks […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (2/27/17)

Beware the Ides of March... Or, if you're Gonzaga, late-February. The bloom officially fell off the 'Zags rose, courtesy of BYU. So who's left? Here are our CBB rankings for the week of February 27th (won-loss records in parentheses).   NCAA College Basketball (CBB) Rankings 1. Kansas, (26-3) As you know, we've always liked the […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (2/20/17)

There is no "I" in team. But, as "Leon" in those old beer commercials once pointed out, to Joe Buck, "There ain't no 'we' neither." (Look it up on Youtube.) Still, the collective at Gonzaga may be proving "Leon" wrong. They certainly are proving a lot of others wrong, as they keep on winning. Here […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (2/13/17)

In the spirit of Valentine's Day, we're going to try to show the love this week. No negativity here. Just the positives, please. Like the exchanging of cards in grade school, when all the kids make out Valentines for all their classmates--even the dorks--we're just gonna ladle out the mush. So, with that in mind, […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (2/6/17)

We're not Sports Illustrated. We don't hold ourselves in such high esteem. But we have our own SI "cover jinx" here at RotoBaller College Hoops headquarters (we have our own home theater system, too, but don't tell the rest of the staff). It seems that every time we pick a new No. 1 (Baylor this […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (1/30/17)

We can't win for losing. Just when we think we have the college hoops landscape all figured out, teams start dropping like flies. UCLA dropped two in a row. So did Kentucky. Several other teams suffered upset loses on the road, including North Carolina. So who survives in our rankings? Here are our CBB rankings […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (1/23/17)

Will Gonzaga go undefeated? Will the pollsters praise the Big 12 and give Kansas and Baylor their due? Will Villanova win it all--again? These aren't questions we can answer in January, but we can tell you our thoughts on the top teams as of now. Here are our CBB rankings for the week of January […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (1/16/17)

Like the late great Dr. King, we have a dream--although it is far less ambitious (or important). Really, we just want to get my Top 10 done on time. Here are our CBB rankings for the week of January 16th (won-loss records in parentheses). NCAA College Basketball (CBB) Rankings 1. Kansas, (16-1) The Associated Press still has […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (4/5/16)

Well, it's official. Villanova has made us look like idiots. We doubted the Wildcats all year--questioned the quality of the Big East--and what did they do? They only beat the three teams we ranked ahead of them for much of the season to take the national championship. Here are our final CBB rankings for the […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (3/28/16)

Let's be honest: Ranking the best college teams week in and week out is hardly an exact science. Sure, you can take into account won-loss records, strength of schedule and "quality wins," but the fact is almost any team in the upper echelon of Division I can beat any other on a given day, particularly […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (3/22/16)

The first two rounds of the NCAA tournament have not only laid waste to our office pool brackets, they've done a number on our Top 10 as well. Still, for regular readers, there will be some familiar teams on this list--particularly at the top. Here are our CBB rankings for the week of March 22, […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (3/7/16)

Spring is a time of renewal, a time to clear the air, recharge the batteries and clean out the closets. Or our Top 10 list. With Spring approaching, we've rearranged our Top 10 a bit, to prepare for the postseason. Here are our CBB rankings for the week of March 7, 2016 (won-loss records are […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (3/1/16)

We've heard about March Madness, of course, but February Fantasies? How else to explain the tumult in our poll every week, which sees darlings turn to deadbeats almost daily? Okay, so we like change, in addition to alliteration. It keeps things interesting. Below are our CBB rankings for the week of March 1, 2016 (won-loss […]

Fantasy College Basketball CBB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (2/10/16)

We're getting into the nitty-gritty of the college basketball season now--the time of year that separates the contenders from the pretenders. And, not surprisingly, we've seen some movement in our Top 10, just like in the AP and USA Today polls, even as we evaluate teams based on fantasy metrics. Below are our CBB rankings […]
