It’s official. The UConn Huskies men’s basketball team is back at the No. 1 spot in the land although it’s not unanimous this time around.
The Memphis Tigers picked up some first place votes in the ESPN/USA Today Poll and in the AP Poll while the North Carolina Tar Heels and Pittsburgh Panthers picked up first place votes in the AP Poll as well.
There’s only one poll that matters and that’s the one that comes out in April after the NCAA Championship Game.
As we approach the conference and NCAA Tournament, we will be hearing a lot about a particular school’s RPI ranking. To see where your favorite team stands in the RPI, click here.
