UConn returns to my AP Top 25 ballot after a pair of road wins over Texas and Tulane. Is Texas that good without Cam Ridley? Probably not. Was squandering a 19-point lead early in the second half a positive thing for the Huskies. Not at all. But UConn won two road games, improved to 10-3, and now boast impressive wins over improving Michigan and Ohio State teams, to go with the road win at Texas.

Along with the Huskies, I've added Iowa, West Virginia and Dayton and booted out Utah, Baylor, Texas and Monmouth. I'll probably vote for Louisville and Pitt when they finally beat somebody.
