• After a very impressive 83-69 win over No. 6 Texas, the No. 2 Baylor Bears are now #1 in the NET rankings and the KenPom rankings. Assuming a win again this weekend, how much ground does BU make up in the AP poll next week? What will it take for voters to respect Baylor's schedule and Gonzaga's lack of one?

• Is Baylor getting disrespected by the national media?

• Is Baylor-Gonzaga the matchup college basketball fans deserve?

• Moving on to OU, making a huge leap from 24 to 9 in the poll after top-10 wins over No. 9 Kansas, No. 5 Texas and No. 9 Alabama. But was such a big jump warranted, considering they couldn't beat No. 13 Texas Tech in Lubbock?

• The N.C. State Wolfpack, darling of the Voter Pod, knocked off No. 1 Louisville the other night. Despite a previous loss, will the Pack jump No. 2 South Carolina and No. 3 UConn?

• Without a dominant team, is the women's game more interesting nowadays?

• 20 wins is usually a rubber stamp for the tournament, but with reduced schedules, what's the magic NCAA number this season?

• Will undeserving blue bloods like Duke or Kentucky steal a bracket positions, even if they don't deserve it? 

• How will the selection committee react to a weird year? Should BPI rankings rule?
