The fifth AP Top 25 poll of the 2025-26 season has arrived, following the first week of league play for many conferences, as well as a week that shook up many of the top-25 teams -- Saturday was the first time multiple AP Top-10 teams lost nonconference home games on the same day since December 6, 2017, exactly eight years ago.
After being blown out 81-58 by Iowa State on Saturday, Purdue drops out of the top-5, with the Cyclones rising up to No. 4. Arizona is now No. 1. Michigan, Duke and UConn round out the rest of the top-5.
