Tennessee's record Top 10 streak ends at 211 weeks

The Lady Vols' streak of 211 straight weeks in the top 10 ended Monday when they were ranked 11th in The Associated Press Top 25 poll. Tennessee, which lost at then-No. 6 Texas 73-59 on Sunday, was last out of the first 10 on March 3, 1997. The run went 56 weeks longer than the men's record of 155 set by UCLA.

Meanwhile, Connecticut remained an unanimous No. 1 choice for the third straight week.

North Carolina, which stayed No. 2 this week, now has the longest active streak in the Top 10 with 70 consecutive weeks. It would take them nearly eight years to match the Lady Vols' run.
 
Well, admittedly, I left out the South reference since Big 12 WBB wasn't broken up that way (for all intents and purposes)
 
Yeah, south and north don't mean as much as it means in football...everyone is clawing against each other.
 
It means a lot since the South teams play each other twice and the North teams while the North teams play each other twice and the South teams once. Guess why KSU won the regular season title last season?
 
I guess the north/south B12 doesn't mean anything if you don't get left out of the conference championship game

Good job twisting my statement...

I have yet to see a Big 12 North WBB champion and a Big 12 South WBB champion. Thus while schedules may work out to some equivocation of a North/South breakdown, the bottom line is that the Big 12 Standings simply show 12 teams and their records. And in that sense, there IS NOT a South/North delineation for the purposes of WBB.
