The Ohio State basketball team has lost three of its last five games, the latest to an unranked Wisconsin team at home in the Schott. Issues with shot selection and turnovers have begun to plague the team and the result has been a bit of a come back to planet Earth moment for the squad after a hot start to the season.
With some cracks beginning to appear, the rankings in the college basketball polls are also starting to fall. On that note, the latest AP Top 25 College Basketball Poll is out and the Buckeyes have dropped from No. 5, all the way outside the top ten to No. 11.
The top ten in the new poll consists of Gonzaga (1), Duke (2), Kansas (3), Baylor (4), Auburn (5), Butler (6), San Diego State (7), Michigan State (8), Oregon (9) and Florida State (10).
Joining Ohio State from the Big Ten are the aforementioned Michigan State, as well as Maryland (12), Michigan (19), and Penn State (20).
