Just wanted to say I'm excited to begin posting in the Betting Talk forum. Haven't been making power ratings for a while, but I've been following college basketball pretty closely this year. I can't stand the AP top 25 / Coaches poll, and primarily that is the reason I constructed these ratings. I understand it is difficult to assign a numerical value to a team, but I just wanted to get a general picture of where the best teams stack up against each other. I'm always looking to hear sharp opinions and I figured this was the place to go. Comments and opinions are encouraged as I am always trying to improve my ratings. Here is my top 50...

98.0 Syracuse, Duke

Good stuff. Here's my top 30. This is strictly from an oddsmaking perspective. For the most part ours look pretty similar, though I have Louisville much higher. If you look at their lines and compare to other teams, it's clear this is still the top team in many's mind. People are just waiting for them to go off.
