Purdue Basketball Ascends to #1 Ranking

After being ranked #4 last week and receiving more first place votes than #3 Virginia the thinking following losses by #1 and #2 was that Purdue had a real shot to jump to the top of the latest AP Top 25. It was set to be released today at noon. Last week they tweeted out the final poll results at 12:06. So naturally at exactly Noon all of Boilermaker nation went to Twitter and/or the AP Top 25 website and began to refresh. Sadly, nothing came. In fact the first indication we got that Purdue was ranked #1 came from the Basketball twitter account.
