Who all six models predicted the top 25 teams would be after the 1985-86 NCAA champion tournament completed.
Commentary: Only 26 teams were required to encompass each model's top 25 teams this year, which does illustrate a strong sense (amongst these models) of which 25 team's had strong seasons this year. (Indiana was the only team not in the first five model's top 25, though MCB listed them as #25.)
