The weekly struggles of the No. 2 team in the Associated Press poll has finally ended.
Ohio State (22-3, 13-1) crushed Nebraska to keep hold of the Big Ten standings over fellow ranked squads Iowa (23-3, 12-2), which dominated Michigan during Caitlin Clark's historic night, and Indiana (21-3, 12-2).
None of the top five teams in the AP poll played a ranked opponent last week. All cruised except for No. 1 South Carolina, which was on rare upset alerts in games against Tennessee and Georgia.
