In a week where none of the top guns in college basketball suffered a loss, we couldn’t have expected much movement in the NCAA basketball rankings. Indeed, little movement happened in the AP top 25 poll. Duke remains on top, and save for a few one-spot switches, the rest of the rankings remain the same.
