College hoops Power Rankings: Virginia's win at Duke is a game-changer

Since losing to Butler in late December, Villanova has won seven in a row, scoring at least 78 points in every game and winning five of them by double digits. The Wildcats might be the best team in the country right now, and they have been terrific since their lone loss of the season.

Yet we're dropping them from first to second in this week's Power Rankings.

Of course, it's nothing against Villanova.

But Virginia going into Durham, North Carolina, and beating Duke on Saturday night is one of the best wins we'll see all season.
