AP Top 25: Tennessee stays put after big week

Two down, two to go for Tennessee basketball. The Volunteers started their tough four game stretch last week with wins against Auburn and at Alabama, perhaps inching closer to that No. 1 seed. Tennessee’s tests will continue at South Carolina on Wednesday and at home against Kentucky on Saturday to finish the regular season.

Tennessee stayed in the No. 4 slot in this week’s AP Top 25 poll, despite the big wins. Houston, UConn and Purdue held serve up top. The biggest mover was Marquette, which tumbled down to No. 8 after losing to Creighton.

Following their losses to Tennessee, Auburn moved to No. 13 while Alabama shifted down to No. 16. The Vols’ opponents this week check in at No. 15 (Kentucky) and No. 17 (South Carolina). Florida fell out of the rankings after losing to South Carolina on Saturday.
