NCAA Basketball Rankings - 23 Feb

Iowa State fell out of the top 5 this week after losing by 10 to BYU over the weekend, which opened up a spot for another team, which turned out to be Illinois, who moved up despite losing to UCLA this week. NC State reentered the top 25, replacing North Carolina, an exact reversal of what happened last week, and Kansas took the largest drop among ranked teams after losing by 16 at home to Cincinnati. Here are my full current rankings:
