    I don't have a major problem with the rankings, except for these 3 teams:
    4. Gonzaga 26-3 665 5
    5. Memphis 27-3 661 3
    6. George Washington 26-1 613 6

    Those teams may have the record, but I'd LOVE to get a hold of them in the NCAA tourny bracket as a top seed.

    That's the only part of your post that I agree with. BC beat UNC in Chapel Hill, but they're ranked lower. Why? Because rankings are based on a team's body of work and not just one or a couple of games. Duke's body of work is worthy of #3 or even better.

    Also everyone should keep in mind that when the AP poll come out UNC should be rank higher then this poll.The reason is in the AP poll UNC was number 13 in the poll last week .I would expect that when the AP poll is out UNC will be in the top8 and duke will be 5 in the poll

    Wait, I just noticed that UNC was the only other team to get a first place vote. That's craziness.
