Arizona back in Top 25 after beating Texas A&M, Alabama

Meanwhile, ASU is in the Top 5

The Arizona Wildcats are back in the Top 25.

After beating then-No. 7 Texas A&M and Alabama this week, the Wildcats check in at No. 23 in the latest AP Poll.

Arizona (7-3) has won four straight since its three-game losing skid in the Bahamas, and hits the road to take on the New Mexico Lobos in Albuquerque this weekend.

The full AP Poll can be found here.

The Arizona State Sun Devils check in all the way at ... No. 5.

ASU is in the Top 10 for the first time since 1981 and it is well-deserved. ASU beat then-No. 2 Kansas in Phog Allen Fieldhouse on Sunday to improve to 9-0, and it has wins over Xavier, Kansas State, St. John’s, and San Diego State.

ASU even received five first-place votes.

The Sun Devils will likely be undefeated when they open Pac-12 play at Arizona, as their last three non-conference games are at home against Vanderbilt, Longwood, and Damon Stoudamire’s Pacific team.

Arizona and ASU are No. 23 and No. 6 in the Coaches Poll, respectively.

Dec. 30 should be fun.
