2021-22 ICT Zone College Basketball Rankings Week 1
College Basketball is back and that means so is your favorite College Basketball ranking system.

Here at the ICT Zone, we rely on a satirical and unconventional ranking system. No analysis, no subjectivity, if a lower-ranked team defeats a higher-ranked team, then the two teams automatically switch rankings. After all, you're only as good as your last game.
With great power comes great responsibility, so with that ranking system, it means it is our duty to also award what we call the ICT Zone College Basketball National Championship.
In 2019, Marshall University won our National Championship. 2020 was Providence. And in 2021, Baylor did the Double by winning the less prestigious NCAA Championship, and winning our more significant trophy.

Here is the first Ranking for the 2021-22 Season. May this be a chaotic season.
