Who all six models predicted the top 25 teams would be after the 1986-87 NCAA champion tournament completed.

Commentary: ZPF and MCB ranked UNLV above runnerup Syracuse, but all agreed with UNC being #4, and the majority had Georgetown as #5, and then the next 5 or 10 teams had some rank variation across the systems. MCB and 50T placed Clemson in the top 25, as did ZPF with the NIT Champion (Southern Miss). Only 29 teams appeared in the top 25, for these six models, so some strong agreement about who deserved to be ranked did occur after this year's NCAA tournament.
