Tuesdays are clearly the biggest weekdays in the sport -- in part because SEC teams are always in action, which is why we've had at least one ranked-versus-ranked matchup each Tuesday in 2025. No other weekday can make that claim.

No. 2 Alabama moved up a spot and had 23 first-place votes, just nine points behind Auburn, while Florida earned three top votes and No. 5 Tennessee got one. Duke was tied with Florida at No. 3, with No.

Auburn, despite its loss, is No. 1 in the AP Top 25, just ahead of Alabama. Florida and Duke are tied at No. 3, while UConn is unranked for the first time in two years.

Auburn retained its spot at No. 1 in the AP Top 25 men's college basketball poll Monday despite its first loss in SEC play this weekend but paid the price by losing its unanimous status among voters.
