After its win over nationally-ranked No. 15 Rutgers over the weekend, Kent State is also receiving more votes in the polls than the Huskies. In the Associated Press Top-25 poll, the Golden Flashes earned 33 votes; however, they only received 26 votes in the USA Today poll, which is 13 less than the votes that went to the Huskies.

With its loss to Miami (Ohio), Ohio dropped from being ranked No. 23-ranked in the Associated Press Top-25 poll. The Bobcats still received four votes and nine in the USA Today poll.
