The Michigan Wolverines won a pair of basketball games last week to move to 13-8 on the season, but it was not quite enough to get them back in to the AP Top 25 poll, though they did receive a vote this week after none last week.
Five Big Ten teams made the cut again with Maryland jumping into the top ten at No. 9, Michigan State and Iowa at No. 16 and No. 17, respectively, Illinois at No. 20 and Penn State at No. 22.
Here is the full poll this week:
