Is it time to panic about former No. 1 North Carolina?


North Carolina had a 15-point lead entering halftime of last season's NCAA championship game against Kansas. The Tar Heels would eventually lose that matchup, but they entered the 2022-23 season as the No. 1 team in America and the national title favorite. Hubert Davis had, after all, returned key players from that Final Four squad and added Northwestern transfer Pete Nance to replace Brady Manek. But November wasn't kind to the Tar Heels, who lost their third consecutive game Wednesday all to ranked opponents. November wasn't kind to the Tar Heels, who lost their third consecutive game Wednesday -all to ranked opponents. First things first: No one should be surprised North Carolina isn't the best team in the country. The Tar Heels were always a candidate to slide from the No. 1 ranking -- in part because they had only one way to go, and in larger part because they are simply the latest example of a team evaluated more by what happened in March than by the four months preceding it.

What's behind Louisville poor start to 2022-23?
It took just seven games for the wheels to completely fall off Louisville's first season under new coach Kenny Payne. Perhaps the most alarming stat, though: Louisville is ranked No. 360 out of 363 teams in the NCAA's NET rankings.

They've had winning seasons in 73 of the last 77 years.

There are more newcomers to the top line of this week's bracket. Arizona has been there previously (Nov. 29), but Kansas, surprisingly, is making its first appearance of the season.

Much has been made of LSU's extremely weak nonconference schedule, but it hasn't hurt the Tigers. Six wins against teams outside the NET top-250, zero wins against a top-50 team, an average opponent NET rank of 255 -- and none of it seems to matter. Perhaps because of their sheer dominance against weaker competition
