College Basketball Rankings: Duke, Ohio State, Kansas At Top; Kansas State Falls To No. 17

The Duke Blue Devils return to a unanimous number one team in the country according to the latest AP top 25 poll. The Kansas Jayhawks continue to sit at No. 3 after they moved to 11-0 this week. Connecticut falls in at No. 4 behind Kansas followed by Syracuse, Pittsburgh, San Diego State, Villanova and Georgetown.

The Missouri Tigers pick it back up at No. 10 as they are now 11-1 on the season with their only loss coming to Georgetown. Interestingly, the Hoyas jumped back in Mizzou this week. Missouri is quietly putting together a very good season.

The Kansas State Wildcats are the real story today as they tumble all the way to No. 17 after losing two consecutive games (but later beating UMKC). They were No. 11 last week after getting as high as No. 3 to start the season. It's been quite a fall for KSU who is now 10-3 on the season. That's okay, though, as there's plenty of time left in the season.

Here's the full AP top 25:
