Being in top 10 hasn’t been good lately, as 13 college basketball teams ranked in the top 10 have fallen in the past two weeks.

Conference play has only made the college basketball season crazier. A week after seven of the top 10 teams lost, including Nos. 1, 2 and 4 on the same day, six of the top 10 fell on Saturday, including four to other ranked teams.

Kansas’ long home winning streak ended, Kentucky might not be the best team in the SEC after being embarrassed by Florida on national TV and Baylor lost its second straight game. Despite all of that, the craziest headline of the weekend came out of the Atlantic 10 conference.

St. Bonaventure seemingly had beaten VCU after a three-pointer went in with two seconds left to give the Bonnies a one-point lead. But their students stormed the court before VCU inbounded the ball, which resulted in a technical foul and gave VCU a free throw.

VCU made the free throw to force overtime and eventually went on to win, 83-77.

It was one of the craziest endings you’ll ever see in a basketball game and proved that home court is not always an advantage.

Here’s a look at the top 10 teams in college basketball after another hectic week.
