The college basketball season is in full swing and following another week of action the Associated Press has released its latest AP Top 25 poll. This week, we have a new No. 1 for the first time in a few weeks.
The Baylor Bears, who have been sitting in the No. 2 spot, moved up to the top spot and received 55 of a possible 65 first-place votes thanks to the reigning national champion Villanova Wildcats suffering their first loss of the season. The Wildcats dropped to No. 3. Occupying the No. 2 spot is the Kansas Jayhawks, receiving eight of the first-place votes.
Rounding out the top five is UCLA and Gonzaga.
