NCAA.com correspondent Autumn Johnson dropped her latest Power 10 rankings. Here’s what you need to know:

⛹️‍♀️ MORE WOMEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL ⛹️‍♀️

1. UCLA (Previously 1)

The Bruins are now 20-0, including two ranked wins in this past week alone vs Baylor and Maryland, holding the No. 1 spot in the nation for 9 weeks straight!  

2. South Carolina (Previously 2)

How about 11 blocks, 13 steals plus limiting LSU to just 6 fastbreak points to hold the Top 3 offense in the nation to just 56 points? The Gamecocks are the defending national champs for a reason 

3. Notre Dame (Previously 3)

The Irish easily handled their two unranked opponents this week in SMU and Boston College.

4. Southern California (Previously 4)

The Trojans picked up two road wins over Indiana and Purdue to extend their win streak to 14.

5. UConn (Previously 5)

The Huskies easily defeated their three unranked opponents this week in Seton Hall, Villanova and UConn.

6. Texas (Previously 8)

The Longhorns secure back-to-back wins taking down Maryland and Tennessee…plus capping off the week with a gritted-out win over Ole Miss. Texas leaned heavily on Taylor Jones who came out with 24 points! 

7. LSU (Previously 6)

This is the Tigers’ first loss of the season, and you have to commend the way LSU fought on the road vs South Carolina. It doesn’t get easier in the SEC…The Tigers went on a 16-5 run to hold off Texas A&M – who came in hungry after beating Kentucky. 

8. Ohio State (Previously NR)

The Buckeyes bounced back with a top-10 win over Maryland and capped off the week vs Nebraska.

9. Maryland (Previously 7)

The Terps are currently missing two of its top 3 scorers due to injuries and have dropped games to Ohio State and UCLA. Shyanne Sellers’ return could turn things around. 

10. TCU (Previously 10)

Suffering an unranked loss to Oklahoma State…but the Horned Frogs survived my Power 10, responding by picking up a ranked win over Baylor for the first time in 35 years….plus help from K-State and Kentucky who were on the bubble, but suffered upsets. 

Dropped Out

Kansas State  — who fell to unranked Colorado. The Wildcats will look to remain at the top of the pack, missing star center Ayoka Lee who is out for the season due to an injury
