Arizona's 84-78 win over ASU on Saturday had only a minimal impact on the Wildcats' standing in the AP Top 25 poll.

The Wildcats moved up from No. 14 to No. 17 while ASU dropped from No. 3 to No. 4.

Michigan State took over the top spot from Villanova, which lost at Butler. 

Among UA's other opponents, Purdue moved up a spot to No. 13 while Texas A&M dropped from No. 5 to No. 11.

The Wildcats lost 89-64 to Purdue on Nov. 24 in the Bahamas but beat Texas A&M 67-64 on Dec. 5 in Phoenix.

ASU and UA continue to be the only Pac-12 teams in the Top 25.
