Any guesses what this week's polls will look like beyond the top 4?
In the AP, teams 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 15, 19, 20, 22, 23, and 25 all lost at least once, as did four of the top five vote getters that missed the top 25.

| I predict that UConn will actually move up to No. 6.

| This could be DePaul's week to move to number 10!

| Who the heck knows. It is going to be interesting seeing how Baylor lost to an un-ranked team and UConn and Maryland lost to the #1 and #2 teams in the country.

Mizzou will show up.
So many of this week's upsets have come from teams no one remotely rated-- Wake, Seton Hall, St John's, even UCLA at this point-- that the upsetters (except Mizzou) aren't likely to show up in the polls to replace the teams that drop out.

| UConn probably will stay at 7. They gave Tenn a run for their money and so many other top ten teams lost anyway.

| Yeah, I don't think teams should move after losing to undefeated teams unless they were above one of them and undefeated themselves.

| So many mid-ranked teams are losing that a loss doesn't drop you far in the polls. And now Michigan State goes down, so there'll likely be room in the top 10 again this week. DePaul definitely deserves to be in the there if they keep winning, as does Purdue if they win this week.
