Kentucky and Michigan State each move up a spot in the media top 25, while UCLA, even though they won, moves down yet another spot. Florida moves up 4 spots, and Colorado loses their point, which I think is a shame because they gave a top 15 Notre Dame team all they could handle in the Charleston Classic title game.

So Davidson receives a lot more points in the mid-major poll this week, and we welcome Rice and their 26 points into the mix. Not that anybody cares but me, but my beloved Wichita State has fallen out of both polls completely.
