  • New AP Poll results are released every Monday during the season.
  • Unlike college football, the poll results have virtually no effect on the sport.

The 2024-25 college basketball season has arrived, which means new bets are available at the BetMGM online sportsbook every day.

As always, college hoops fans can get weekly updates from the Associated Press about which of the 364 Division I teams are good enough to rank in the AP Top 25.

When Do College Basketball Rankings Come Out?

The AP poll releases new college basketball rankings every Monday, often early in the afternoon (around 1 p.m.) for those on East Coast time.

College Basketball Rankings

Unlike college football, the college basketball poll has virtually no impact on the postseason of the sport. Thatโ€™s because 68 teams are ultimately included in the Division I postseason tournament, with seasonal on-court results dictating seeding (but not necessarily inclusion) for every team.ย 

Below, you’ll find the current, updated rankings for this season.
