Irish slip a bit to 4th and UCONN uses its midweek win over Notre Dame and close victory at South Florida to jump to #2. Georgetown's second loss in three games drops them to third.

Big game in the Hoosier State tonight as Purdue travels to Bloomington to attempt to stay in first place in the Big Ten against an overrated IU team (quick, name all the top 40 teams Indiana had beaten before last Saturday's game against Michigan State...). It should be a good one and possibly the last game Kelvin Sampson coaches in Assembly Hall.
