Gonzaga is no one-week wonder at No. 1. The Bulldogs beat Loyola Marymount 66-48 in their first — and so far only — game as the nation's top-ranked team. They will look to win the West Coast Conference title Monday night. Gonzaga received 54 first-place votes from the 65-member national media panel. Duke, which received the other 11 first-place votes, moved up one spot to second after beating Virginia Tech and North Carolina last week. Indiana dropped one place to third after losing to Ohio State then rallying for a dramatic win at Michigan that gave the Hoosiers the outright Big Ten title/Associated Press. More here.
