Who’s up: UCLA and Kentucky. The Bruins and Wildcats both moved inside the Top 10 after being ranked just on the outside looking in the previous week. UCLA knocked off then-No. 8 Oregon on Sunday, with Michaela Onyenwere converting a game-winning layup en route to 33 points in a 73-71 road win. Kentucky, meanwhile, posted a pair of Top-15 victories this past week, beating Arkansas at home (75-64) and Mississippi State in Starkville, Miss., in overtime (92-86).

Who’s down: Northwestern. It was a rough week for the Wildcats. First came a bad loss at Nebraska mid-week followed by a blasting at the hands of Michigan, with Naz Hillmon and the Wolverines winning 84-63 on Sunday in Evanston.

Who to watch: UConn at Baylor, 7:30 p.m. Thursday (ESPN). The Huskies are undefeated (what else is new?), but Geno Auriemma’s team has played only one ranked opponent (No. 20 DePaul). The Bears are 8-1 with their lone loss an 83-78 defeat at then-No. 16 Arkansas on Dec. 6.
