A big week has the Wolverines among the teams on the rise in this week's NCAA men's basketball rankings.
The top five saw a shakeup in the latest AP men's basketball Top 25 poll, with Kansas and Houston dropping and Villanova, Texas and Iowa moving up.
After the Longhorns handed the Jayhawks their largest home loss under Bill Self, Shaka Smart's Texas team moved up four spots to No. 4.
Meanwhile, undefeated Michigan moved up six spots to crack the top 10 for the first time this season. The Wolverines beat Maryland and Northwestern on the road for a tidy 2–0 week. Creighton (No. 7) also returned to the top 10.
