The last time Arizona Wildcats weren't ranked: "Gangnam Style" was in, RichRod was new
- Updated
The Arizona Wildcats fell out of the Associated Press Top 25 for the first time in 100 weeks, which dates back to the end of the 2011-12 season.
That year, Arizona didn't earn a spot in the NCAA Tournament and suffered a first-round loss to Bucknell in the National Invitation Tournament (NIT), a team that included Kyle Fogg, Jesse Perry and a freshman Nick Johnson.
The Cats went back into the AP Top 25 at the start of the 2012-13 season, which was the start of the 100-week streak. What happened in the months between March and November when the Wildcats weren't ranked?
