College Basketball Power Rankings: Texas 'Horns in on Top Three


You might find more drama in the owner's manual for your coffee pot than you'll find in the battle for No. 1.

It's Ohio State, which turned Purdue into a fine puree Tuesday night and next up get Northwestern, a team whose idea of postseason success is scoring discounted airfare for spring break.

At No. 2, there's Duke, which continues to push buttons and tweak its offense without Kyrie Irving, who remains out with an injury to the most publicized toe not belonging to the wife of an NFL head coach.

Then it's anybody guess.

Here's ours, led by the Texas Longhorns at No. 3, who snapped a Kansas' 69-game home winning streak Saturday, which was the longest streak this side of betting the 'under' on Wisconsin basketball games.

Ballots were tallied from college basketball editor Ray Holloman, associate editor Matt Snyder, national college basketball writer Terrance Harris and blogger Evan Hilbert. Points, listed in parentheses, were given in reverse order of rankings (16 points for a first place vote, 15 for second, etc.).

This week's comments are by Matt Snyder, Evan Hilbert and Ray Holloman. Please tip on your way out.
