Arizona is ranked No. 1 in the country for the 10th straight week in the Associated Press college basketball top-25, but they've got a tough week ahead with games at No. 9 Kansas and home to No. 16 Texas Tech this week. Can they stay unbeaten?
Unbeaten Arizona has been ranked No. 1 in the country for 10 straight weeks now, and its streak continued on Monday when the Week 15 Associated Press to-25 poll came out. The Wildcats got all 59 first-place votes to remain at the top.
But the hard work isn't over. The Wildcats still have six games against ranked teams in the regular season, and this week is tough. They play at No. 9 Kansas on Monday night, and play No. 16 Texas Tech on Saturday.
Houston was the biggest mover of the week at the top of the poll, moving up five spots from No. 8 to No. 3. Further down, St. John's moved from No. 22 to No. 17 after upsetting Connecticut.
Gonzaga took the biggest fall, going from No. 6 to No. 12 after getting upset at Portland 87-80 on Wednesday. BYU, currently on a four-game losing streak, dropped six more spots to No. 23. They were ranked No. 9 in the country three weeks ago before losing five of six.
