When the AP and Coaches Poll was released on Monday afternoon, Villanova would have a chance to become the number one team in the country for the first time in school history. This occurred because Oklahoma (previously ranked No. 1) lost to Kansas State and North Carolina (previously No. 2) lost 2 crucial games on the road at Louisville last Monday and at Notre Dame last Saturday.
College basketball has been a wild and exciting season so far because the number one team in the country has changed quite a few times this season. With everyone in the country trying to chase you at the top, the pressure builds as teams approach each game during the season.
