Duke gets record 150th No. 1 ranking in AP Top 25 men's poll
"We've put ourselves in a position to do something special and make a run. Our plan is how can we get as healthy as possible and ready as possible for two weeks from now, wherever we go into the NCAA Tournament. I'd be shocked if both of them are playing in the conference tournament."
"The Blue Devils reached No. 1 in the AP poll for the first time on Dec. 13, 1965, and they've spent more time there than any other men's basketball program. UCLA is second with 134 weeks on top while Kentucky is third with 125 weeks at the top spot."
Duke achieved a historic milestone by receiving its record 150th No. 1 ranking in the AP Top 25 men's college basketball poll. The Blue Devils secured 56 of 60 first-place votes following victories over conference rivals NC State and North Carolina, extending their time at the top to three consecutive weeks. Duke has held the No. 1 ranking more than any other program since first reaching it on December 13, 1965, surpassing UCLA's 134 weeks and Kentucky's 125 weeks. Coach Jon Scheyer's team enters the ACC Tournament as the No. 1 seed but faces potential injuries to starters Patrick Ngongba II and Caleb Foster. Arizona remained second with four first-place votes, while Michigan received one after defeating No. 8 Michigan State.
