No. 1 Kansas and the top nine teams remained unchanged as Florida Atlantic tumbled nine spots in the Associated Press Top 25 men's basketball poll released Monday.

Purdue (3-0), Arizona (5-0), Marquette (3-0), UConn (4-0), Houston (6-0), Tennessee (3-0), Creighton (4-0) and Duke (3-1) held their rankings, with the No. 2 Boilermakers receiving five first-place ballots, the No. 3 Wildcats earning three, and one vote going to the defending champion and No. 5 Huskies.
FAU (2-1) dropped nine spots to No. 19 after a stunning 61-52 loss Saturday against Bryant, replaced at No. 10 by Miami (5-0).
Colorado (3-0) made the biggest leap, climbing seven spots to No. 18.
No. 24 Virginia (4-0) and No. 25 Mississippi State (5-0) joined the Top 25, with Villanova and Illinois dropping out. The Bulldogs are ranked for the first time since the 2018-19 season.
