NCAA Basketball Rankings - 18 Dec

Arizona's loss to Purdue wasn't quite enough for the Wildcats to drop from the top spot in this week's rankings, and it wasn't enough for Purdue to hold off Houston for the #2 spot either. Auburn jumped into the top 10 this week after double-digit wins over USC and UNC Asheville, and their rival Alabama jumped into the top 25 at #16. Here are my full current rankings:
