AP Top 25: Where is Ohio State basketball in the college rankings?


COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Ohio State men’s basketball team has fallen outside of the Associated Press Top 25 following its loss to North Carolina.

The Buckeyes have been ranked for the past three weeks peaking at No. 23 ahead of its neutral site loss to the Tar Heels as part of the CBS Sports Classic in New York City. They’ll return home on Wednesday, hoping to bounce back against Maine in the first of two games left in the calendar year.

OSU dropping out of the Top 25 leaves the Big Ten with four ranked teams. Purdue leads the group as the nation’s top team and the only program inside the top 15.
