The top three teams remained the same in the Associated Press poll going into Week 10 of the college basketball season, but there was once again plenty of drama beyond that this week.

Saturday alone saw nine ranked teams suffer losses, while the Big Ten again featured plenty of parity during conference play.

Undefeated squads Gonzaga and Baylor continue to separate from the rest of the pack, while Villanova returned to the court with two quality wins. Florida State was unranked last week but enters at No. 16. Here is how the voters rated all the teams in the latest Top 25.

We have become accustomed to Baylor cruising to wins, but it was still an impressive week for the Big 12 squad. The Bears earned a 77-69 win over Kansas while leading from wire-to-wire before coming from behind to beat Oklahoma State 81-66.

Jared Butler showed why he should be an All-American, totaling 52 points in the two games with 14 assists and shooting a scorching 13-of-16 from three-point range.

"Man, he's ridiculous," teammate Davion Mitchell said of Butler after Saturday's win. "He can really play the game of basketball. He's not cocky with it. He loves playing with us. And when he was making those shots, he was telling us 'good pass.' It's just like, he didn't really care about himself. He cared about his teammates playing."

It will make Baylor extremely difficult to beat for the rest of the year.

Villanova also had a strong week in its first two games since Dec. 23. The Wildcats escaped with a two-point victory against Seton Hall before easily dispatching Providence. Three straight road games will create some tough tests for this team, but it showed it is still one of the best in the country.

Not every top squad was as fortunate, including Iowa, which suffered an 81-69 loss to Indiana. Luka Garza did his part with 28 points and 12 rebounds, but the Hawkeyes shot just 5-of-23 from three-point range.

Iowa fell from No. 4 to No. 7 as just one example of a wild week in the Big Ten.

Indiana later lost to Rutgers at home, while Maryland upset Minnesota and Ohio State both won at Wisconsin and lost at home to Purdue. It creates plenty of difficulty in sorting these teams in the rankings, especially with Michigan athletics on pause because of COVID-19.

Tennessee took a tumble in the rankings after two losses in the SEC, falling from No. 6 to No. 18. No. 12 Missouri showed it could be a tough team this year with an upset of the Volunteers on Saturday:

Combined with a blowout loss to Florida, it was not a good week for Tennessee.

Alabama took advantage by surging to the top of the SEC standings with eight straight conference wins, moving to No. 9 in the latest rankings.

Virginia is also on the rise in the ACC with a 6-0 start in the conference, improving to eighth in the AP poll.

It sets up a week featuring big games that include Texas Tech against West Virginia, Villanova at UConn, Iowa versus Illinois and Tennessee hosting Kansas.
