Kentucky held the No. 1 spot yet again, garnering a unanimous vote for the fifth consecutive week.
Less Virginia, who remained at No. 2, the rest of the top 10 saw a shakeup, owing to Gonzaga's fall from No. 7 from No. 3.
Duke, Villanova and Arizona came in at No. 3, No. 4 and No. 5, respectively, while Wichita State (No. 8) entered the top 10 after taking down Northern Iowa (No. 11).
Ohio State's affair with the poll once again saw the Buckeyes pulled into the mix, slotted at No. 23, while Murray State made its debut at No. 25.
