The Big Ten tied the AP Top 25 women's basketball record with nine ranked teams. The conference set the mark last year on Dec. 2 and this week has three teams in the top 10 alone.

Only five conferences are represented in the poll this week which covers all 360+ Division I programs. The Big Ten leads the way with nine ranked teams, the SEC is next with eight. The Big 12 has four, the ACC has three and the Big East has one.

Of note, the Tennessee Lady Vols appearance this week is their 800th appearance in the 50-year history of the rankings. Tennessee had a stretch of being in the Top 25 for 565 straight weeks, a record later surpassed by UConn.
