NCAA Basketball Rankings - 24 Feb

Auburn finally fell from its perch at #1 after a six week run, with Duke snatching the top spot after pounding Illinois over the weekend. That loss knocked the Illini out of the top 25, where they were replaced by Mississippi State, while Michigan State moved into the top 10 after taking the Big 10 lead in a win over rival Michigan. They also beat Purdue on the road, which knocked the Boilermakers out of the top 10 with four straight losses. Here are my full current rankings:
