After Villanova defeated Michigan Monday night in the NCAA Tournament Championship, ESPN released its ‘Way-Too-Early Top 10’ NCAA men’s basketball rankings.

The 2018 National Champions are ranked third, and three SEC teams made the top 10.

The runner-up, Michigan, along with Final Four team Loyola-Chicago did not make ESPN’s top 10. Kansas is ranked at No. 1, although the Jayhawks lost to Villanova 95-79 in the Final Four.
