Big 12 Men’s Basketball Power Rankings: Week 18

Disclaimer: The rankings below are for the games played through Sunday, March 30. Midweek games played since Sunday will be reflected on next week’s Power Rankings.

Welcome to our inaugural Big 12 Baseball Power Rankings. Each week, our voters will rank the 14 baseball teams in the Big 12 based on their conference play and overall record. Neither Colorado nor Iowa State fields a baseball team, so there are only 14 teams.

It’s not just about records. What are our voters seeing from these teams? What’s the vibe coming from these dugouts? Which team has a chance to make it to the postseason?

Many of you may be familiar with our weekly Power Rankings for football and men’s basketball, which we’ve done for several seasons. We added women’s basketball this past season. We did baseball power rankings in 2022 and 2023, but they went on hiatus last year. Now, they are back!

After the weekend series are over, our voters rank the teams. Votes are calculated, and this article is then the summary of their votes. Look for this most Thursdays, but sometime, like this week, it gets pushed to Fridays.

We have brought together a group from across the league to vote on the Big 12 Power Rankings each week during the season.

Each week, each participant provides their rankings 1-14. Those rankings are compiled, and the average rank is then listed below. For the most part, our voters are not considering this week’s midweek games. However, some may have considered those games depending on when their votes were submitted.

Here’s where our panel of voters ranked the teams this week:

Here are our Week 4 Big 12 Baseball Power Rankings, as voted on by our group of sports journalists and fans representing many of the 14 teams in the conference. What did this week tell us? It told us that the four schools in Arizona and Kansas may be the ones to beat this season.
