How many votes did BYU basketball earn in this week’s AP Top 25?
BYU basketball has yet to be ranked this season, but the Cougars are moving in the right direction.
Kevin Young’s squad received 26 points from voters in the latest AP college basketball poll, placing seven spots outside of the top 25.
