Kansas remains No. 1 in AP poll for second straight week. This time it’s unanimous
Kansas moved to No. 1 in the Associated Press men’s basketball poll last week, receiving 62 of the 64 first-place votes.
On Monday, following wins over Kansas State and Oklahoma State, the Jayhawks (26-3) became a unanimous No. 1 with all 64 first-place votes.
KU totaled 1,600 points to runner-up Gonzaga’s 1,514. Dayton is third followed by Baylor, San Diego State, Kentucky, Florida State, Seton Hall, Maryland, Louisville, Creighton, Duke, Oregon, Villanova, BYU, Michigan State, Auburn, Iowa, Ohio State, Penn State, Houston, Virginia, Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan.
The Jayhawks, who were ranked No. 3 two weeks ago, moved to No. 1 last Monday after defeating then-No. 1 Baylor. The win vaulted KU past not only Baylor but then-No. 2 Gonzaga, which fell to BYU two weeks ago. And then-No. 4 San Diego State, also lost, meaning KU was the only victor among the top four teams. The Jayhawks also were No. 1 in December, immediately losing that ranking after a loss to Villanova.
KU will meet TCU at 7 p.m. Wednesday in Allen Fieldhouse.
