Both Michigan basketball teams made small movements in Monday’s AP Top 25 poll. The Michigan men dropped one spot to No. 21. Since last week’s poll, they lost at Minnesota on Thursday and beat Northwestern at home on Sunday.

EAST LANSING, Mich. (WILX) - Michigan State men’s basketball won two games at the Breslin Center last week, 90-85 over Penn State and 80-78 over No. 19 Illinois, and moved up four spots to No. 8 in this week’s Associated Press Top 25 Men’s College Basketball Poll. The Spartans are ranked in the AP top 10 for the first time since 2019.

Auburn claimed the program’s second No. 1 ranking last week and won both its games despite playing without injured big man Johni Broome. The Tigers rolled over No. 14 Mississippi State 88-66 and survived a late comeback to beat then-No. 19 Georgia 70-68.
