It has been a strong four-team group for the past couple of weeks, but now it has been trimmed to three after Baylor lost at Texas Tech and at home against Kansas. Scott Drew's Bears fell from fourth to eighth, and the Pac-12 trio of UCLA, Oregon and Arizona all move up a spot.
Most of the teams in the top 25 got through last week unscathed, but South Carolina and Xavier took the most significant hits and fell out altogether after being mainstays of late. The Gamecocks lost at Arkansas and Vanderbilt and Chris Mack's team fell to Providence and Marquette on the road.
