Conference basketball is here which means the games matter just a little bit more. Each week will present a slate of games that are sure to change the top 25.

One of last seasons personal favorites, Ball State, are back in the top 25. After defeating Toledo, Ball State find themselves at #17 with a 10 and 4 record. DePaul are the only team to join the top 5 after taking down Seton Hall.
