The final weekend of college basketball’s regular season has come and gone. Now, the real fun begins with various conference tournaments taking place across the country next week, as the race to Selection Sunday intensifies. And in Monday’s Top 25 poll, there is bound to be a shakeup in the top five after UConn was upset by Marquette on the penultimate day of the regular season.
With Selection Sunday less than a week away, the No. 1 seed line is becoming clearer. No matter how the rest of next week shakes out, Duke, Arizona and Michigan — the top-three ranked teams in the AP poll earlier this week — appear to be locks to stay as a No. 1 seed.
However, after UConn lost to Marquette, the door is open for a team like Florida to jump to the top line. The Gators should get a boost this week and move up one spot ahead of UConn in the poll.
