WEEK 4 TITLE ODDS POWER RANKINGS

College basketball enters the fourth week of action, with a few shake ups near the top of the NCAA Championship odds list. The top five teams in Gonzaga, Baylor, Iowa, Michigan State and Kansas all remained the same. Duke saw a loss to Illinois, before bowing out of non-conference play, while Illinois also saw a road loss to Missouri.

Richmond falls out of the Top 25 after a devastating loss to West Virginia, who seems legit and are playing with little recognition of winning the Big 12. San Diego State continues to impress, showcasing the defense that helped them win 30 games last season. Florida State finally got on the court, and seems to be the best ACC team as of now.

Here the Top 25 teams for Week 4 of the college basketball season.
