Villanova ranked 8th, Marquette at 24th in new AP Top 25

The Big East Conference now has two teams in the latest AP Top 25.

The Villanova Wildcats retained their standing in the Top 10 after a 2-0 start to the season. The Wildcats jumped up from 9th to 8th, standing with 1,139 points this week. Their jump in the polls was thanks in part to the fall of another pack of Wildcats. Those being the Kentucky Wildcats, who plummeted from 2nd to 4th after being dismantled by the new #1 team in the land — the Duke Blue Devils.
