This is the time of the year when the college basketball rankings can be thrown out the window. This is Championship week. This is the week that the conference championship tournaments take place with only one winner emerging as a champion and securing the bid for the NCAA tournament. With that being said here is a look at the top five teams in the Bang the Book.com college basketball rankings.
James Madison vs. Northeastern Pick
It has been a tough year for the CAA, as this has been a conference that has been down from some rough non-conference results. That being said, the CAA still has a team that is going to be in the NCAA Tournament, and that team will be the one that beats the NCAA basketball betting lines in Monday’s finale between the Northeastern Huskies and the James Madison Dukes.

Bang the Book College Basketball Rankings 2/26/13
The college basketball rankings are getting tighter as the season winds down. With conference play dominating the schedule and titles on the line, teams are giving it their all. Here is a look at the top five college basketball teams in the rankings according to Bang the Book.
Duke Blue Devils vs. Wake Forest Demon Deacons Free Pick
Duke only has two straight-up losses on the season, but last Wednesday’s 90-63 blow-out at the hands of No.14 Miami as a 2.5-point road favorite had to raise some eyebrows concerning the overall state of this team. The Blue Devils responded by hammering a decent Maryland team 84-64 as 12-point favorites at home this past Saturday. They are now 17-2 straight-up on the year and 11-8 against the spread. The total has gone OVER in their last four games.
Duke at Georgia Tech Pick and Preview 1/14/09
Third-ranked Duke will go for their seventh straight win on Wednesday as they visit Georgia Tech. The Blue Devils have been playing suffocating defense so far to start the conference season as they held Virginia Tech to 44 points and Florida State to 58 points. Duke has held their last four opponents to an average of 55 points per game.

Siena at Pittsburgh Preview 12/17/08
Third ranked Pittsburgh has left little doubt so far this season that they are a team to be reckoned with. They have won every game this season by at least 13 points and that could be the case again on Wednesday as they host Siena. Pittsburgh has the nation’s leading offensive rebounder in DeJuan Blair and he has set up a lot of easy shots for Sam Young. Overall, the Panthers are ranked in the Top 25 in the nation in field goal percentage. Pittsburgh is also shooting well from three-point range which makes them even more difficult to defend.
