Another wild week full of upsets has once again led to some big movement in the latest top 25 polls.
The newest AP poll has the Kentucky Wildcats sliding down to the No. 15 spot. It would have been further if not for a host of other top-15 teams losing, which is about the only thing these Cats have going for them right now.
Frankly, with how bad UK has looked over the past month, you can't really argue with any ranking they get this week. Thankfully, there's still over a month away until the NCAA tournament starts. This team needs every bit of that month to become capable of making a deep run in March.
