3 University of Michigan Logo Michigan (-) Michigan beat Ohio State in a fantastic game and would've moved up if not for the juggernauts that are Gonzaga and Baylor.
4 Ohio State University Logo Ohio State (-) Even though Ohio State lost, they put together a great performance and likewise would've moved up, if not, for you know.
5 University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Logo Illinois -
6 University of Oklahoma Logo Oklahoma +2
7 University of Alabama Logo Alabama +2
8 Villanova University Logo Villanova +2
9 West Virginia University Logo West Virginia (+2) WVU made a great comeback over the floundering Texas and they've been overall impressive these past weeks.
10 University of Iowa Logo Iowa (+3) Iowa's not-top-10 streak ended quickly with a wins over Wisconsin and Penn St. It looks like, so far, they've regained footing.
11 Florida State University Logo Florida State (+6) Florida State second game coming off of pause went alright. All they did was beat Virginia by 21.
12 Creighton University Logo Creighton +2
13 University of Houston Logo Houston (-6) Houston's third loss in the AAC put them at 2nd in the conference. They still have the most wins, but they should be undefeated.
14 University of Kansas Logo Kansas (+9) Kansas has been on fire, winning five in a row including wins over Oklahoma State, and most recently, Texas Tech.
15 Texas Tech University Logo Texas Tech (-3) There's not too much wrong with a loss @ Kansas. A short drop for TTU.
16 University of Virginia Logo Virginia (-10) UVA had an awful week. A massive blowout loss to FSU and then a loss to the 10-8 Duke. A drop outside the top 15 is warranted.
17 Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University Logo Virginia Tech +1

19 Oklahoma State University Logo Oklahoma State +2
20 University of Southern California Logo USC (-4) USC lost for the first time in a very long time, in the form of a 9-point home loss to Arizona.
21 University of Texas at Austin Logo Texas (-6) Worrying time has past, it's time to start panicking about Texas. A meltdown loss to WVU gives Texas a 2-4 record over their past 6.
22 Louisiana State University Logo LSU (NR) LSU put on an offensive masterclass against Auburn. There's a nasty loss to UK, but other than that this team has a nice resume.
23 San Diego State University Logo San Diego State (NR) SDSU is 17-4 and has won their past 8.
24 Loyola University Chicago Logo Loyola Chicago -
25 University of Oregon Logo Oregon (NR) Oregon has been solid after a bad loss to Wash. St., most recently beating a good Colorado team.
