The Badgers are sliding in the latest AP poll after Saturday’s road loss at Penn State dropped Wisconsin to 13-5 overall (7-4 in the Big Ten).
Wisconsin slipped from No. 14 to No. 19, while falling behind other Big Ten risers. Ohio State was the big winner this week, beating Penn State and Michigan State to jump to No. 7 overall, their highest ranking of the season.
Michigan leads the way in both the Big Ten at 8-1 and in this weeks poll at No. 4. Iowa at No. 8, Illinois at No. 12, and Purdue at No. 24 rounds out the rest of the Big Ten representation.

Since the poll expanded to 25 teams in 1989-90, the 1995-96 Arizona Wildcats (19th to 4th)
are the only other team to make a jump that large after being ranked the previous week. pic.twitter.com/oSXFKMZSY3— ESPN Stats & Info (@ESPNStatsInfo) February 1, 2021
