UConn stays atop AP poll
Bottom 16 teams plav musical chairs
The Associated Press
Connecticut remained firmly entrenched at No. 1 today in The Associated Press women's basketball poll, which has three new teams for the first time this season.
After moving to the top with its nationally televised victory over Tennessee last week, Connecticut did nothing to tarnish its ranking by handily defeating Big East rivals Boston College and Syracuse.
However, UConn coach Geno Auriemma got himself into trouble by complaining about Boston College's play and the officiating in that game. He was disciplined by the university but wasn't suspended and remained calm in the Huskies' 89-58 victory over Svacuce on Sunday.
Connecticut (15-0) received all 32 first-place votes from a nationwide media panel.
Tennessee (17-1) bounced back from its loss to beat Mississippi State and remained second, while defending national champion North Carolina (18-0) held on at No. 3.
In the point column, it's 800 for Connecticut, 767 for Tennessee and 730 for North Carolina.
Ten teams in last week's Top 25 lost at least once during the past week and four of them were beaten twice. Two of the two-time losers — Southern Mississippi and Drake — dropped out of the poll along with Seton Hall.
That made room for Oklahoma State, Oregon and Virginia Tech. Virginia Tech is in the poll for the first
time in school history.
The highest ranked team to lose was Louisiana Tech (14-3), which tumbled from fourth to eighth after a 79-71 loss at Western Kentucky. Both of Tech's previous losses had been to Tennessee.
Western Kentucky (15-0) moved up three places to sixth, with No. 4 Stanford (14-1) and No. 5 Colorado (15-2) each climbing one spot.
Texas Tech (18-2) is seventh, Vanderbilt (15-4) is ninth and Penn State (13-3) is 10th.
Georgia heads the second 10 and is followed by Virginia, Florida, Alabama, Washington, Mississippi, Kansas, Texas A&M, George Washington and Southern Cal.
There was some movement in that group as Florida, Texas A&M and Southern Cal all jumped four places and Mississippi moved up two spots.
On the downward side, Washington slipped two places after losing to Oregon, Kansas fell two spots after being swept at home by Oklahoma and Oklahoma State, and George Washington dropped three places after losing to Penn State and Rutgers.
Duke, which made its debut in the poll last week, jumped four places to 21st and Purdue went from 19th to 22nd after losing to Penn State. Oklahoma State, Oregon and Virginia Tech round out the Top 25.
Oklahoma State (12-4), which was ranked last year, has come back with four straight victories after successive road losses to Colorado and Missouri. The latest was an 81-73 decision at Kansas on Sunday.
Oregon (11-3), ranked for the first time since 1991, has won six of its last seven, including an 83-61 drubbing of Washington.
