UConn men’s basketball’s slide down the AP Poll continued this week, with the Huskies dropping to No. 24 after losing to then-No. 13 Xavier at Gampel Pavilion.
The five-spot drop marks the sixth week in a row that UConn has fallen in the AP Poll after climbing to No. 2 in the country earlier this season.
The Huskies are joined by three other Big East teams in the poll, with Marquette (No. 14), Xavier (No. 16) and Providence (No. 17) all ranked. Creighton once again is unranked but received 51 votes in this week’s poll.
