I think that's Katz's power ranking, not the AP. AP still shows 23 on the hotlink.Number 17 this week in AP

That is Andy Katz's personnel rankings
*** Also, Katz is a B1G Network employee, so his rankings skew HEAVILY in favor of that terrible conference. Purdue is a 1 seed, Wisconsin is second weekend good, Illinois with Shannon is second weekend good. Michigan St is a bubble team. After that, the other 10 teams are pretty bad. Quite sad for a 14 team conference to have 3.5 tournament teams
Torvik probably has a more accurate projection than these bracketologist right now.
Most bracketologist seed the tournament as if it was going to start tomorrow. But it won't. There's still a month and a half of conference games to be played. And Big 12 teams are going to be picking up good wins and "not bad" losses the whole time while the other conferences with teams in competition for at-large bids are going to pick up worse wins and much worse losses along the way for everybody's metrics.
So...
SEED LINE
#1 Houston
#2 Iowa St.
#3 Kansas
#3 BYU
#4 Baylor
#5 Texas Tech
#6 TCU
#8 Oklahoma
#8 Texas
#10 Cincinnati
10/14 not bad
Distance from the last team in Dayton (currently Nebraska)...
11th Kansas St.
25th UCF
113th Oklahoma St.
121st West Virginia
So, ten on the right side of the bubble right now. Kansas St. and UCF are in striking distance if February goes well for them. Oklahoma St. and West Virginia are very much lost causes.
12/14 teams at least on the bubble

Gary Parrish has us #7 in his top 25 and 1 rankings.
Back where we should be. Thanks TJ.
AP: #12 and EIGHT Big 12 teams in the top 25
All the Big 12 teams. Wow
Nice jump! They must be impressed with our spying skills.
Only one game this week too. Let’s kick Baylors ass.
If we win at Baylor it'll be time to suckle at the teat of the Kool Aid Man.
A lot of voters had probably seen our metrics but wanted to see it proven out on the court more before they moved us in line with those ratings. Big wins against Kansas State and Kansas did that.
