CBB: Week 16 Preview

The college basketball regular season is nearing the end, as Selection Sunday is quickly approaching. Some teams are going in the right direction, and others are choosing a poor time to hit the skids. I will provide my version of the Top 25 teams, some "on the bubble" teams that are on the verge of making the Top 25 but could also fall out of the tournament entirely if they end the season with a few losses, and finally predictions for the best games of the week. Week 16 is important for many teams and you can see who I think will take advantage in the upcoming several days.

Top 25:

1. Villanova (24-3) 2. Kansas (23-4) 3. Michigan State (22-5) 4. Arizona (22-5) 5. Virginia (21-5) 6. Xavier (24-3) 7. Oklahoma (21-5) 8. North Carolina (22-5) 9. Miami (FL) (21-5) 10. Iowa (20-6) 11. Maryland (23-5) 12. Louisville (21-6) 13. Oregon (21-6) 14. Kentucky (20-7) 15. West Virginia (20-7) 16. Indiana (22-6) 17. Duke (20-7) 18. Baylor (20-7) 19. Purdue (21-7) 20.
