There was no movement in the Top 5 of either the AP Poll or Coaches Poll, meaning the Iowa State men remained fifth in the country.

Kansas and Connecticut are first and second in both, with Gonzaga third in the AP Top 25 and Auburn third in the Coaches. The two are the opposite of one another.

Iowa State and Auburn collide late Monday night in the Maui Invitational, which saw UConn fall earlier in the day to unranked Memphis. Kansas, meanwhile, is set for a showdown with Duke this week, which could lead to plenty of change in the Top 5 next week.

Along with the Jayhawks and Cyclones from the Big 12, Houston is sixth in the AP and seventh in the Coaches while Cincinnati, Baylor and Arizona are all ranked in both.
