, which as you'll notice has Wisconsin at #3. For the second week in a row the top team lost. This week UNC dropped to 4, which isn't much different than UCLA dropping to 3 last week. Ohio State(5) lost to Wisconsin(7) and dropped 2 spots. OSU's 3 losses are all to teams ranked higher than them currently, so 7 seems right, especially since the beat a ranked Tennessee(20) last week. Arizona(8( loses to Oregon(17) and drops 4 spots to 12. I'm not sure on this one. I think 'zona might deserve a little bigger drop following the prior week's loss, as well. Oklahoma State(10) loses to Kansas(6) and drops 4. They've got a tough week, so their will probably be more movement in next weeks polls. Duke(11) dropped 6 and Clemson(14) dropped 2, which rounds out a bunch of ACC teams falling from the elite.
I love that Duke dropped below Clemson. Coach K is getting the lucky bounces he's gotten in the past, and the refs are calling a fair game. Don't be surprised if Duke falls out of the top 25 this season.
The one big question on this week's rankings, in my mind, is how does Tennessee(20) lose twice, and stay in the rankings?

Duke should have dropped out already, any other team would have!
