There’s a new top team in the land of college basketball. Its name is the Villanova Wildcats.
The Wildcats are the consensus No. 1, standing at the top of both the AP Top 25 and USA TODAY Coaches Poll this week. Villanova is 10-0 on the year following their wins over the Gonzaga Bulldogs and La Salle Explorers this week. Given the shakeup at the top, it only made sense that the team without a blip rose to the top.
‘Nova received 41 first-place votes in the AP Poll and 22 in the Coaches Poll.
