College Basketball Rankings & Standings: Top 25 Teams, Week 9

Let me start off by wishing everyone a happy new year! After probably hearing that for the 100th time already, it’s good to get back to the daily grind. We’re in the ninth week of the college basketball season, we only have three undefeated teams remaining: reigning national champions Villanova, Baylor, and Gonzaga, who are all ranked first, second, and fifth, respectively. The Top 25 really hasn’t changed too much from week to week. The top ten has remained relatively the same for the first part of the season, but I’m sure it will change as we get closer to March. Here are this week’s top teams according to the AP:
