College basketball rankings: 3 B1G teams crack Top 10, Purdue replaces Minnesota in latest Top 25
Another week of college basketball is in the books. That means it’s time for the latest edition of the Associated Press Top 25.
This week, three B1G teams have landed inside the Top 10 after the latest action. Michigan is still the highest-ranked squad at No. 4, still sitting at 13-1 and on an activities pause due to COVID-19 concerns. Ohio State has climbed up to No. 7 after wins over Penn State and Michigan State. Iowa is also at No. 8, despite back-to-back losses to Indiana and Illinois.
With a 19-point win over Minnesota on Saturday, Purdue cracks the Top 25 at 12-6 on the year, while the Golden Gophers fell out of the rankings. Illinois and Wisconsin are also in this week’s poll.
