College basketball AP Top 25, Week 4: Arkansas drops from poll after multiple losses

Feast Week has come and gone and there was plenty of movement in the latest AP Top 25 poll, which dropped Monday afternoon.
Five SEC programs cracked Week 4’s poll following Feast Week: Tennessee at No. 10, Kentucky at No. 12, Texas A&M at No. 14, Mississippi State at No. 21 and Alabama at No. 23. Arkansas, which was ranked No. 20 last week, fell out of the top 25 following losses to Memphis and North Carolina.
Arkansas is sitting at 4-3 on the year with losses to the 2 teams above and UNC Greensboro. It’d be unwise to write the Razorbacks off this early in the season, but this is far from the start Eric Musselman and Co. envisioned with Trevon Brazile back in full swing. The Hogs have a chance to right the ship this Wednesday against Kyle Filipowski and Duke.
Arkansas, Ole Miss, Auburn and South Carolina (The Gamecocks are… 5-0!?) all received votes, but just missed out on the top 25.
Here’s a look at the full top 25:
- Purdue
- Arizona
- Marquette
- UConn
- Kansas
- Houston
- Duke
- Miami
- Baylor
- Tennessee
