The one bad thing about beating ranked teams is that it often means those vanquished foes fall out of the rankings. But at the same time, it also leaves more room for Arizona to keep climbing the polls.

The Wildcats have jumped to No. 16 in the latest Associated Press Top 25, up three spots from last week, after beating then-No. 16 Utah (which is no longer ranked) 42-18 on Saturday. It was their fourth win this season over an AP-ranked team, most since 1989, though three of those teams are no longer in the Top 25.
