Mid-Major Basketball: Power 20

Saint Mary’s remains the top team in the Mid-Major Basketball Power 20 rankings for the third consecutive week after quality victories over Santa Clara and Gonzaga last week to improve its winning streak to 10 games. 

Memphis and New Mexico, who defeated Utah State by 19 points on Saturday, round out the top three teams in this week’s poll.

Yale enters the Power 20 for the first time this season, while St. Bonaventure, Grand Canyon and High Point return to the rankings after short absences.

While college football follows a clear structure with automatic-qualifying and non-qualifying conferences for the College Football Playoff, the term “mid-major” in basketball is more subjective. For clarity and consistency, MidMajorBasketball.com defines mid-majors as teams from conferences outside the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, SEC and Big East.

Below is a look at the latest Mid-Major Basketball Mid-Major Power 20 rankings, with five additional teams to watch. View last week’s poll here.
