The latest AP top 25 poll was released on Monday, Dec. 30. Last week, six Big Ten teams made the top 25. This week, that didn’t change. Where those teams were situated, however, did change:
- Gonzaga
- Duke
- Kansas
- Oregon
- Ohio State
- Baylor
- Louisville
- Auburn
- Memphis
- Villanova
- Butler
- Michigan
- San Diego State
- Michigan State
- Maryland
- West Virginia
- Kentucky
- Florida State
- Virginia
- Dayton
- Penn State
- Texas Tech
- Iowa
- Wichita State
- Arizona
Ohio State, Michigan and Maryland each dropped a bit, as did Penn State. Michigan State stayed right at 14, while Iowa moved up two spots when compared to last week.
Big Ten teams have played 13 games to this point and two conference games have taken place. The remainder of the 20-game in-conference schedule will begin as the calendar changes from 2019 to 2020.
