2010 College Basketball Rankings: BYU Moves Up To Number Nine In The Coaches Poll

Mountain West basketball is getting a lost of respect as BYU moved up a spot to number nine spot after they easily defeated Utah and received some help with Purdue losing a game last week. San Diego State is still at the six spot, and there was some thinking that they would move into the top five after Duke lost, but no such luck in that.

UNLV received eight votes in the coaches poll and continues to live just on the outside of both polls, but they still look to be a good bet to make the NCAA tournament.

Mountain West Basketball Power Poll: 2/8/2010

There is a new team at the top of the weekly MWC power poll. BYU has now lost to New Mexico and UNLV in consecutive weeks, while the Rebels are 3-1 against San Diego State, New Mexico and BYU.  Had the Rebels not choked against Utah at home they would be riding an eight game winning streak.

There is a tie between TCU and Wyoming this week in the voting, but the big shake up is up top.

Mountain West Basketball Power Poll: 2/1/2010

Here we go again with another week of the power polls.  This time BYU loses a game, but they retain the top spot and it seems clear there is a grouping forming with BYU, UNLV, New Mexico, and a lesser extent San Diego State.  Then Utah and Colorado State and the rest with Wyoming, TCU, and Air Force.

Surprisingly with New Mexico beating BYU the only change is a flop between Colorado State and Utah, make sure to check after the jump to see how each voter cast their poll.
