Who do you think is clearly better? Not trolling, legitimate Q as I mostly only watch the WV games.
FWIW Kenpom does have the gap between #1 Baylor and #5 Iowa as large as the gap between #5 Iowa and #37 BYU.
It seems like this year Baylor/Gonzaga look to be in a clearly separate tier, Michigan was maybe in that tier maybe not but also hasn't played in a month so who knows, then like 20 teams are all roughly in the same boat.
Not sure who I'd even pick ahead of Iowa...
UVA who lost to San Francisco, Gonzaga by 23, VT by 14 and who has zero top-40 wins?
Villanova who is 3-2 against the Kenpom top-70?
Houston, who has 1 top-50 win, and lost to #94 Tulsa and #135 ECU?
Alabama, who has lost 2 of 3, is just 5-4 against the top-40 and has a loss to #85 Western Kentucky on top of that?
