updated 01.09.06
| Rank | Team | Points | Record | RPI | Comments |
| 1 | Memphis (3) | 15 | 13-2 | 2 | When your fans, and the fans of rival schools, are concerned that you only win by 10 points over anyone, you know you have a good team. |
| 2 | UAB | 12 | 10-3 | 33 | They're pretty even with Houston, but we've got UAB slightly ahead due to a slightly better RPI and a slightly better SOS. |
| 3 | Houston | 9 | 9-3 | 40 | Began the season 4-3, and like the Blazers, the Cougars have had a nice run and are in the middle of an impressive winning streak. |
| 4 | UTEP | 6 | 7-5 | 191 | 3 straight losses have UTEP looking forward to conference play. With 5 straight C-USA games against sub 240 RPI-ranked teams, the Miners should start off strong. |
| 5 | SMU | 3 | 7-5 | 277 | The Mustangs have not won more than 2 straight games all season and have bad losses to Wyoming and Louisiana-Monroe. But SMU has looked better in winning 6 of their last 9 with a impressive showing against Oklahoma. |
