The AP Top 25 College Basketball Poll was released today. The AP Top 25 College Basketball Poll is compiled from votes by 64 sportswriters and broadcasters from across the country. After all of the votes had been tallied San Diego State found themselves in 20th place. That is five spots higher than the dream team (34-3) season ranking of 25th place. This is the highest San Diego State has ever been ranked in school history in the first poll of the season.

Battle On The Midway (Nov 9th) Syracuse = 9th

Wooden Classic (Dec. 1st) UCLA = 13th

The writers who ranked SDSU the highest are Scott Mansch (10th), Mark Berman (11th) and J.P. Butler (13th).
