Butler climbs, IU falls in rankings

Indianapolis (WISH) - In the Week 12 Associated Press College Basketball Top 25 Poll, the Butler Bulldogs jumped up four spots from No. 13 to No. 9.  The jump comes after the Bulldogs won two games the previous week against Richmond and Gonzaga, both without their leading scorer Rotnei Clarke.

The Indiana Hoosiers dropped five spots from No. 2 down to No. 7 following a week where they went 1-1. The Hoosiers fell to unranked Wisconsin at home, and got a win at Northwestern later in the week.

Both teams have two more games this week.  Butler travels to LaSalle on Wednesday and hosts Temple on Saturday.  IU has two home games, hosting Penn State on Wednesday, and the No. 13 ranked Michigan State Spartans on Sunday.
