After a long exam break the Hoos got back on the court and demolished a below average Robert Morris team 79-39. That was good enough for the pollsters to bump the Cavaliers up in both polls.
Creighton, Lousivlle, West Virginia, and the Hoos all jumped a spot thanks to Indiana’s dramatic 7 spot fall after losing to Butler on a neutral court. The top 6 stayed the exact same while UNC and Gonzaga traded spots after the Heels dropped a game to Kentucky.
