Another week's slate of college basketball has come and gone across the NCAA, with a new No. 1 now gracing the top of the latest AP Top 25 poll.
Said change is due, of course, to former No. 1 Purdue's upset loss to Iowa State on Saturday—one that in turn jolted the Cyclones into the top four.
Elsewhere across college hoops, Gonzaga beat Kentucky by 35(!) points (and caused former Wildcats star DeMarcus Cousins to tweet that the team has no heart), Michigan continued to prove that they're contenders with a Big Ten win over Rutgers, and Doug Gottlieb threw a chair.
And with that, here’s a look at the latest AP Top 25 rankings as we head into Week 6 in college basketball:
