The past week was chaos. We can all agree about that. Top-2 team UConn lost three consecutive games at the Maui Invitational. Top-5 teams Gonzaga and Iowa State each lost a game. It was the second time in AP survey history, according to ESPN Stats & Information, that AP-Top 5 teams lost at least 5 games in a calendar week in November (following Nov. 21-27 in 2021). Take a look at the rest of last week’s AP Top 25 and there were more upsets and surprise results.So, with the
new poll released, there have actually not surprisingly been modifications. Kansas holds on to the No. 1 area, however after going through the Maui Invitational field, Auburn will challenge the Jayhawks. Tennessee, Kentucky and Marquette round out the leading 5, while newcomers consist of Oregon, Memphis, Pittsburgh, Illinois, Oklahoma and San Diego State.Defending national champ UConn moved all the way to the very bottom at No. 25. Let’s take a look at the
