Maryland basketball is still out of the Associated Press’ latest top 25, released on Monday. The Terps are 10-1, but haven’t beaten some of their lower-rated opponents by very many points.
VIllanova kept the top spot this week, followed by UCLA, Kansas, Baylor and Duke rounding out the top 5.
Indiana is the Big Ten’s top-ranked team, coming in at No. 9. Wisconsin’s at No. 14 and Purdue’s at No. 15. No other Big Ten team is ranked this week.
Maryland’s only lost once, but the Terps’ best win this season is arguably over Oklahoma State. They’re riding a three-game winning streak right now, and that doesn’t seem likely to end before conference play starts.
The Terps play Jacksonville State Monday night at 7 p.m. The Gamecocks are the lowest-rated team Maryland plays for the rest of the season. The Terps have over a week off before they play Charlotte in Baltimore next Tuesday.
