  "account": "In the latest AP poll of the 2026-27 men's college basketball season, the Louisville Cardinals have climbed to the 10th spot. This marks a surprising rise for the team, which did not make it into the top 25 after victories over Iowa State and VCU. The current top five consists of Florida, Duke, Illinois, UConn, and Michigan State, all with a perfect 2-0 record. Following Louisville, the rankings are filled with other unbeaten teams such as Virginia, Texas, UCLA, and Arizona. Tennessee is at 11th with a 1-0 record, while Arkansas sits at 19th with a 1-1 record. Other notable teams in the rankings include Memphis at 97, Saint Louis at 67, and Iowa State at 57.",
