College Basketball Top 25: Kentucky Rises, Villanova Falls, New Mexico And Kansas State Join
Kansas and Texas occupy the top two spots in the poll for the third straight week, but last week’s No. 3, Villanova, fell to No. 8 after losing to Temple. Led by John “Wonder”-Wall (rejected, I know) Kentucky jumps into the No. 3 spot after beating Connecticut, while Syracuse moved up from No. 7 to No. 5 after beating Florida.
UNLV (No. 18 last week) and Wisconsin (No. 20 last week) fell out of the rankings this week. UNLV’s loss to Kanas State sealed their fate, while Wisconsin lost to cross-town rival Wisconsin-Green Bay to drop out.
