Our recent return from a cryogenic freezing also means that we’ve rejoined the ranks of the voting basketball bloggers. Below is this week’s poll, which reflects games played through Monday, January 12th. If you want to check out the full breakdown, click on over to see the spreadsheet with everyone’s votes.

With Louisville still hanging in the rankings following their OT destruction of Notre Dame on Monday night, it left Tennessee as the only team on our ballot (ranked 24th) to not make the consensus poll.

Aside from the Volunteers, the only major outlier in our ballot was Arizona State, which we had four slots higher than consensus. They have looked good so far this season, but still lack the kind of victory that would make the nation take notice. Sophomore stud James Harden and the Sun Devils will soon have their chance though, as they travel west this weekend to face both USC (Thursday) and UCLA (Sunday).

This week’s blogpoll included our rankings and those of voters from the following eleven websites: Bryce’s Brackets and Observations, College Hoops Journal, The Daily Gopher, George Mason Basketball, March Madness All Season, March to Madness, Rush the Court, A Sea of Blue, The Slipper Still Fits, Storming the Floor, and Tar Heel Mania.
