Louisville only drops two spots in the rankings while Kansas and Texas remain at the top of the hill. Duke still looks over rated at number 5 and look for them to get the boot early. Michigan State just suffered their second loss losing to number 11 North Carolina. West Virginia will also be given a tough game in the ACC-Big Ten Challenge when they play Iowa.
