Mountain West Basketball Power Rankings: Still No Unanimous Pick At No. 1


Mountain West Basketball Power Rankings: Still No Unanimous Pick At No. 1


San Diego State is still No. 1

Two teams claim first-place votes, again.

A reminder that these rankings range from Dec. 23 through 29th, so keep that in mind if these power rankings go out later in the week.

There was not a lot of basketball played during the Christmas holidays with Boise State being out in Hawaii for a few games and a bunch of non-Division I games on this past Saturday.

Having said that, the amount of movement was minimal this week due to the lack of games. One change that happened was that the Aztecs pulled within one first-place vote of being unanimous. Last week, Utah State had two first-place votes but now they are down to one.

The top four remained the same but it was Boise State who swapped spots with Colorado State to go to No. 5 after it went 3-1 with its one loss only being to Georgia Tech.

Besides that it was a boring week for those rankings with the lack of interesting games. That will all change once league play resumes in full force.
