NCAA.com correspondent Autumn Johnson dropped her latest Power 10 rankings, recapping a chaotic and eventful week in women’s basketball. Here’s what you need to know:

1. Notre Dame (Previously 2) 

There’s a new No. 1 in town! The Fighting Irish are on fire, riding a 17-game win streak and dominating ACC play. Next up… Duke TONIGHT!

2. UCLA (Previously 1)

The Bruins’ perfect run came to an end at the hands of crosstown rival USC, snapping their 23-game winning streak. But a bounce-back game vs Michigan State. Worth noting: Lauren Betts didn’t play against the Spartans. But Janiah Barker and Timea Gardiner? They had a huge breakout game together! 

3. Texas (Previously 3)

It’s not about how you start… it’s how you finish. The Longhorns battled back for a gritty, team win over LSU—marking their fourth straight victory against a ranked SEC opponent.

4. Southern California (Previously 6)

The Trojans took down the No. 1 team in the country behind a monster performance from Juju Watkins: 38 points, 11 rebounds, five assists and eight blocks. Circle March 1st on your calendar…we get a rematch.

5. UConn (Previously 7)

The Huskies needed a statement win… and they got it, plus some. They looked locked in on both ends: 22 assists, 13 threes, 31 fastbreak points, and dominated the boards. 

6. South Carolina (Previously 3) 

Dawn Staley gave the Gamecocks an F for their performance against UConn, and the 29-point loss was definitely uncharacteristic.

7. LSU (Previously 5) 

The Big 3 went off, but it wasn’t enough to outlast Texas. The Tigers dropped their second game of the season on the road.

8. Ohio State (Previously 9) 

The Buckeyes survived an overtime thriller against Minnesota. Now… they’ve got another tough test against Iowa TONIGHT!

9. TCU (Previously NR) 

The Horned Frogs are sitting at No. 1 in the Big 12 with an overall 24-3 record.

10. North Carolina (Previously NR) 

The Tar Heels battled for a hard-fought win over NC State, extending their win streak to five. 

Dropped Out
 

Kentucky – Back-to-back losses to Ole Miss and Texas.
NC State – Two close ACC battles… The Wolfpack escaped Miami but fell to North Carolina.
