Duke lost - they had to go down. And KU didn't do anything to show that anyone behind them deserved to leapfrog over them. They essentially did stay the same, its just that Duke moved behind them with a bad loss.

Meh. Not really that fired up about it. Although I would say that if Mizzou was the #8 team, and Duke lost ahead of them, and they lost to #4 ku at allen fieldhouse, I am not sure Mizzou would move up in that situation. ku is getting the benefit of their reputation, which is no big deal in basketball, since everything is decided come tournament time.
One could spin ku moving up by saying that the voters showed Mizzou some respect by saying ku lost a very high quality opponent. I can live with that.
