The Coaches Poll Top 25 rankings have been updated after the final week of the regular season for an insane year in college basketball.

It was borderline impossible for many teams to separate themselves from the pack, and that’s evident as we enter conference tournament week. Still, there’s a couple more days for bubble teams to prove they belong, and multiple programs are going to have to make runs to get to the NCAA Tournament.

Some huge games took place over the weekend that are sure to have an impact on this week’s rankings. The Alabama Crimson Tide fell to the Texas A&M Aggies is a hugely disappointing loss for Nate Oats’ squad, with Wade Taylor IV providing 28 points on the way to victory.

Meanwhile, other highly ranked teams like the Baylor Bears, Kansas State Wildcats, and Tennessee Volunteers are all entering their respective tournaments coming off losses, as well. On the other hand, don’t look now but the Kentucky Wildcats are feeling themselves, and they’ll be ready and roaring to avenge their upset loss last season during the NCAA Tournament.
