Kentucky is once again on the rise in the AP Top 25 rankings after a good win over Alabama.
The Wildcats didn’t quite crack the top 25 this week, but are sitting just outside at No. 27.
Of course, North Carolina has already moved back into the top 10 and West Virginia is still No. 21 despite going 4-7 in their last 11 games.
Here’s a look:
