NBCSports has their preseason mid-major "power ranking". Note that they do not include Wichita State, which they say would easily be #1, because they now no longer consider Wichita State a "mid-major" based on their own criteria that "is more about financial resources, support from the university, the fan base and the community, and consistent, high-level success during the season and on the recruiting trail"
"The Mountain West, the Big East, the Atlantic 10 and the American were all barred from these rankings. The WCC was eligible with the exception of Gonzaga and BYU. The Missouri Valley was eligible with the exception of Wichita State". -
Northern Iowa is #10, and no other MVC team is listed in their preseason top 15.
