2025-26 Rankings

Just to keep track of all of the definite AP voters this year:
Seth Davis (Hoops HQ): #3
David Borges (Connecticut Insider): #4
Jeff Borzello (ESPN): #5
Jon Rothstein (CBS): #3
Average: 3.75

Others like Dauster, Parrish, and Goodman weren't AP voters last year, but still possible they will be this year.

Solid chance at the school's first ever preseason top 5 (or 6) ranking, which as mentioned is huge for season ticket sales. Also will help individual tickets for the Alabama week 1 opener.
 
Just my two cents on UConn. Seems most voters are expecting Karaban to be a Batman when he clearly showed last season he is just a Robin. UConn is stacked but if Hurley allows him to take a high volume of shots, they may suffer the same fate as last year.
Agree on Karaban. I think the biggest need from last year is clear. Hurley has noted a number of times his squad in 2025-2026 must be a lot more physical than last season and defend at a consistently high level. That of course is easier said than done.
