Men's Basketball Poll Watching Week 3: TCU Still "Receiving Votes"
In the first two weeks of the college basketball season, the TCU men's team has gone a perfect 4-0, dominating all opponents at home with an average margin of victory at 28.5 points.
TCU remains in the "receiving votes" category in both weekly polls, a spot they have been in since the preseason rankings.
Kansas, who has started the season 3-0, remains at the top of both polls in Week 3. The top nine teams in both polls did not change week-over-week. Purdue, Arizona, Marquette, and UConn round out the Top Five.
In addition to Kansas, the Big 12 has three other ranked teams - Houston (6/6), Baylor (13/12), and Texas (15/17). In addition to TCU, BYU, Iowa State, Oklahoma, and Kansas State are receiving votes in at least one poll in Week 3.
Here are the highlights from both the AP Top 25 poll and the Coaches Poll:
