1. UConn (Prev. 1) 

The Huskies are dominating, winning their past three games by at least 35 points. 

2. Texas  (Prev. 2) 

The Longhorns were tested but escaped Ole Miss 67-64. They have a huge matchup looming with LSU this Sunday.

4. UCLA (Prev. 4)

The Bruins demolished their crosstown foe Southern Cal, 80-46, winning the past two by 30-plus points. 

5. Oklahoma (Prev. 8)

The Sooners continue to roll, holding a 13-game winning streak. They kick off a four-game stretch against ranked SEC foes on Thursday with Ole Miss, Kentucky, LSU and South Carolina. 

6. Vanderbilt (Prev. NR)

The undefeated Commodores stormed in after knocking off LSU for its first ranked win, paced by Mikayla Blakes' 32 points.  

7. Kentucky (Prev. NR)

The Wildcats defeated LSU for their second-ranked win of the season, with their only loss coming from Maryland.

The Terps suffered their first loss of the season to unranked Illinois, but they avenged that hiccup, handling Indiana. 

9. Michigan (Prev. 6) 

The Wolverines survived Oregon in double overtime, then followed it with an upset loss to Washington. Michigan is skating on thin ice and has to figure out its woes going through Big Ten play.
