As we approach Christmas break, and transition to conference play, it seems like a good time to rank college basketball's power conference teams. 6 conferences, 74 teams, 6 unbeatens, and 1 truly awful Utah squad. Included for reference are each team's overall record (against D1 teams), their RPI, and their ranking according to KenPom.com.

 

UNLV returns to the Top 25 after topping Illinois, who falls to 25th. Virginia makes their first appearance. Alabama and Vanderbilt drop out of the poll, though somehow they each still get votes. Vanderbilt's 5 votes is shocking. Xavier drops out of the top 10 after losing to Oral Roberts without their star players.
