Also on the rise this week are No. 14 Arkansas and No. 22 Virginia, both up three spots. No. 12 Vanderbilt, No. 13 North Carolina and No. 17 Kansas climbed two spots while No. 20 St. John's moved up by one. There was no movement inside the top 11.

One important basket, in particular, came off an offensive rebound after two short misses by guard Sam Hoiberg and gave Nebraska a three-point lead, 80-77, with 26 seconds to play.

You can listen to Illinois vs. Nebraska live on SiriusXM. Coverage will be available on channels 85 (Illinois broadcast) and 372 (Nebraska broadcast).

The big tweaks will come in the teens this week with No. 12 Alabama, No. 13 Illinois, No. 16 Texas Tech and No. 18 Florida all sustaining losses. No. 23 Nebraska's win over No. 13 Illinois and No. 25 UCLA's loss to No. 8 Gonzaga should also be a factor in the final tabulations.

The Wildcats saved their season for now in not collapsing down the stretch again, while Brayden Burries lifts Arizona’s ceiling.
