Baylor remains No. 1 in The Associated Press women's basketball poll for an eighth straight week after topping UConn last Monday night.
The Lady Bears rallied to beat the third-ranked Huskies by six points before routing Texas for their 37th straight Big 12 regular-season victory. Baylor received all 40 first-place votes for the first time since returning to the top spot. The Lady Bears visit Oklahoma on Monday night.
The first seven stayed unchanged with Notre Dame, UConn, Stanford and Duke following Baylor.
Cal rallied from a 17-point deficit against Oregon State on Sunday to remain sixth. Penn State, Tennessee, Maryland and Kentucky round out the first 10.
A week after falling out of the Top 25, Iowa State came back in at No. 23. Oklahoma State fell out for the first time this season.
