New Rankings: Kansas #1

I thinkt that Duke should still be #1. Just because they had 1 bad game doesn't mean the best team in college basketball should be #2 instead of #1. Kansas is #1. They are good, but not better than Duke. In ESPN/USA Today's poll they ranked Duke 1 and Kansas 3. In ESPN's fan poll Duke's 3rd and Florida's #1. The rankings:
