Vermont

The Catamounts are hosting Maine tonight, and the Black Bears are 2-20 so far this year, so they won't challenge conference favorite Vermont.

College Basketball Rankings - 20 Jan

Arizona only played once this week, but their win over Arizona State was good enough to help them hold on to the top spot for another week. The only other undefeateds are barely within the top 25, and there are only 4 1-loss teams remaining as well, so the Wildcats' undefeated record in a major conference is impressive, especially this late in the season. Here are my full rankings for this week:

Wisconsin entered the week undefeated but left it with 2 losses, losing to both Indiana and Michigan, neither of which was ranked nationally entering the week. Their next two are on the road, which could be dangerous for the Badgers, as a 4-game losing streak would be devastating to the morale of a team that was ranked so high so recently.

Iowa State fell 4 spots this week after picking up 2 more losses, making it three in a row for the Cyclones after opening the season 14-0. They play four consecutive ranked teams starting with Kansas State on Saturday, so this slide could extend for a while unless they can bring back the magic they had 2 weeks ago.

Gonzaga returned to the top 25 this week after bouncing back from a loss at Portland with a pair of wins at Pepperdine and Loyola Marymount. This Bulldog team definitely isn't as strong as the one that was ranked #1 last season, but they should still win a game or two in the tournament just like normal.
