Tennessee moves to No. 1 in AP Top 25, Duke drops to No. 2

Tennessee is the new No. 1 in The Associated Press men's college basketball
poll after three of the top five teams lost last week.
The Vols received 48 of 64 first-place votes from a media panel on Monday, well
ahead of No. 2 Duke with 11. No. 3 Virginia received three first-place votes
and No. 6 Michigan State had two. Gonzaga and Michigan rounded out the top five.
Tennessee rolled over Arkansas and edged Alabama in its two games last week,
while Duke, Michigan and Virginia all lost.
The Blue Devils lost to Syracuse in overtime last Monday, but bounced back to
knock Virginia from the unbeaten ranks with a 72-70 victory on Saturday.
Michigan lost to Wisconsin on Saturday as well, leaving the 1976 Indiana
Hoosiers as the last Division I team to finish a season undefeated.
