The remaining undefeated : UC vs. Xavier, Iowa St and SMU
http://www.si.com/college-basketball/201...oma-xavier
Seth Davis picks when the remaining undefeated will lose their first game .
He has the Bearcats handing Iowa St and SMU their first losses, but not taking down Xavier.
Xavier (9–0): Dec. 22 at Wake Forest
I’ll give the Musketeers a win over Cincinnati on Saturday, but with games coming up at Villanova and home against Butler, this one in Winston-Salem is a classic trap game against a good-but-not-great team playing at home and hunting for a résumé-builder.
Iowa State (7–0): Dec. 22 at Cincinnati
Iowa shouldn’t give the Cyclones much trouble in Ames on Thursday, but with these rivalry games you just never know. Winning on the road at Cincinnati would be a tall order, but Iowa State also has to play at Oklahoma on Jan. 2. They’ll get clipped in at least one of those games, if not both
SMU (7–0): Jan. 7 vs. Cincinnati.
The Mustangs are undefeated, but they’ve flirted with disaster a couple of times. They darn near lost at home to Yale in their third game, and they only won by five at TCU. If they get by the Bearcats, the schedule is light enough that they could go into February still perfect, but I think it’s likely they will get tripped up somewhere before then.

Does Seth Davis have a vote in one of the polls? Would be interesting to see where he would put UC considering that he has the Bearcats knocking off 2 undefeated teams.

Seth Davis picked UC #22.
So he's calling for UC to upset two significantly higher ranked teams? I think I like this guy

Iowa State's Naz Long will miss the rest of the season due to a hip injury, per release. HUGE loss for Cyclones. Significant Big 12 news.
