5. LSU

MiLaysia Fulwiley is getting comfortable in LSU’s system … and ZaKiyah Johnson was impressed with her debut.

6. Oklahoma

A fun matchup tonight against UCLA who could shake up the rankings – Raegan Beers, Lauren Betts.

8. Maryland

The Terps hit the streaming portal jackpot, and this new-look team is already well connected.

9. U.S.C

No JuJu Watkins… but USC will bring new star Jazzy Davidson (No. 1 recruit in the nation) to help them shut down NC State in the second half.

You have to respect Baylor and USC’s top 10 Week 1 wins.

10. NC State

Back-to-back ranked assignments have failed, but a win over former top-10 Tennessee saves the Pack for now.
