The first week of the college basketball season produced few upsets at the top off the rankings. So it follows there are only minor changes in the USA TODAY Sports men’s coaches poll in the first release of the regular season.
The top 10 teams remain the same, headed by No. 1 North Carolina and No. 2 Gonzaga. The Tar Heels received 22 of 32 first-place votes, while the Zags picked up seven. The 28-point difference between the schools is a slight increase from last month's poll. North Carolina won it's first two games, albeit in unimpressive fashion, while Gonzaga narrowly rallied past Michigan State.
