Wisconsin once again remained at No. 5 in the latest Associated Press top 25 poll. In the process, the Badgers gained all of 2 votes.
Last week, Wisconsin gained 4 votes and I was shocked at all the up-and-down movement for the Badgers in the poll.
This week, well, things were a little more static. Only six voters changed their ranking of Wisconsin from last week.
But, in two head-scratching cases, Wisconsin was moved down from 5 to 6 (Mark Berman of the Roanoke Times and Zach Osterman of the Indianapolis Star).
For the record, here are their top-5:
Berman: Kentucky, Virginia, Gonzaga, Duke and Villanova.
Osterman: Kentucky, Virginia, Gonzaga, Duke and Villanova.
Interestingly, perhaps, Berman had Wisconsin ranked as high as No. 4 in Week 12, before moving UW down to No. 5 the next two weeks. Osterman had Wisconsin at No. 6 from weeks 11-13 before his one-week move to No. 5.
Here's a look at the complete list with a comparison all the way back to Week 11:
