The Iowa men’s basketball team (19-6, 8-4) moved up one spot in the latest AP Top-25 poll for the second-straight week.
Despite playing only one game last week, the Hawkeyes’ 82-70 road victory over Penn State was enough for pollsters to bump Fran McCaffery’s squad up to No. 15 in the country.
Iowa will try to pick up its fourth-straight conference road win tonight against Indiana before welcoming No. 16 Wisconsin to Carver-Hawkeye on Saturday. In addition to Iowa and Wisconsin, three Big Ten schools appear in this week’s rankings: Michigan State (13), Michigan (20), and Ohio State (24).
