A busy Week 9 in men's college basketball included an unbeaten team finally losing and a historic slate.
Florida knocked off Tennessee in emphatic fashion, which means there is a new No. 1 team in the AP poll for the first time since Week 5. However, the Volunteers bounced back Saturday. Tennessee, Auburn, Iowa State, Duke, Alabama and Kentucky all secured victories. It marked the first time the entire top six won on the same day, all by single digits, in the poll era (since 1948-49), according to ESPN Research.
Even with that recent dominance at the top, a new team entered the top six, plus there was some movement in the middle of the pack.
Here's a look at the Week 10 poll for the 2024-25 season.
