Despite staying at No. 5, many AP top-25 voters dropped Badgers

Published Oct. 24, 2017 1:45 p.m. ET

The Wisconsin Badgers not only remained at No. 5 in the most recent Associated Press top-25 poll, but they also had the exact amount of votes as the previous week.



That doesn't mean everyone kept Wisconsin in the same spot, however.

Yes, 40 of the 61 AP voters did not change their ranking of the Badgers.

Twelve, though, did move Wisconsin down in their ranking from last week. The biggest move was five spot, from 5 to 8, by Adam Zucker of CBS Sports Network.

So why the static amount of votes?

Well, nine voters moved Wisconsin up, including two voters from 9 to 5, which helped counter-balance more people lowering the Badgers in their rankings.

Here's the complete look at the Week 9 ballots along with the previous week for comparison:
