As expected, Kentucky returned to the AP Top 25 after their comeback win vs. West Virginia. The Cats are No. 21 in the latest poll, which is topped by Villanova, Virginia, and Purdue.

Kentucky is one of four SEC teams in the rankings. Auburn leads the way at No. 11 followed by Tennessee at No. 18, Kentucky at No. 21, and Florida at No. 23. Because I know you’re curious, after losing back-to-back games, North Carolina fell from No. 10 to No. 19. Even though Duke lost at home to Virginia yesterday, they stayed at No. 4.
